About a month ago I got out of a 4yr relationship. We were apart more than together but we parted on good terms. Im ready to go out and try again. Ive had my eye on this wonderful girl for sometime but my problem is she is friends with my ex and im not sure how to work around that. We have always had a good time when were out together. So Id like to take the next step.

I know almost everyone has been in some type of situation like this. How did u handle it and what worked and didnt work. I want to do it right the first time so this is why im asking u. I really want to make a good impression on this girl.


Thanks

Well Crap! I must have been ripped off some where because I've never been in that kind of a situation



Anyway... Well I guess a lot depends on how good of a friend this other girl is with your EX and since you've said that you and your EX parted on good terms,how much it means to you to keep your EX~GF's friendship and remain on good terms if she isn't all about you dating one of her friends.

For me, there isn't any way I would date, hook up with or become involved with one of my friends EX~BF's... it is just mutually understood by all of my girlfriends that doing that isn't okay... even if they parted on good terms, I still wouldn't do it.

However this girl may feel differently, and for all I know maybe your EX would be fine with it as well. If that is the case (or if there is even potential that it could be the case) then approach this girl tell her how much you like spending time with her and that you know and understand that she is friends with your EX... but how she would feel about dating you.

Never know unless you ask As far as making a good impression, I think you will have shown that you're not an insensitive jerk in asking her if she would be okay with dating although she (and you) are friends with your EXGF.

Good Luck
