My wife and I separated a few months ago. She began dating other people, and now thinks she may want to see if we could be friends and if the spark comes back, we could begin working on our marriage. We agreed not to talk to each other about dates, as it would hurt the other (f'd up, huh?). But we would tell each other if we decided to go back to each other. Has anyone out there tried that (dating while married) before, and what was the result?
What an interesting situation. You're gonna have to do what feels right to YOU. I, personally, could not see myself trying to work things out with my ex (or current in your case) if she was seeing other people. Not a chance. It doesn't matter if you don't talk about the dates or not. You KNOW that she's doing it and the curiosity/jealousy/etc. will drive you nuts.
However, if SHE (not you) is the one requesting the attempt at a restart as friends, then maybe she genuinely feels like things may work out. I wish you luck my friend.
