honeybunch2k5 Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 I want to be friends with my ex. Is that okay? I really like him, and I really enjoy his company. He suggested first that would could be friends and see a movie every now and then.
IhavenoFREAKINclue Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 Why not? My Boyfriend is BEST FRIENDS and when I say BEST FRIENDS i mean soooooooooooo close with his ex. They do everything together. its doesn't bother me one stitch either! If you and you ex didn't have a nasty break up, Sure you can be friends with him. Even if it was ugly, if there was enough time in between for feelings to fizzle away, then go for it!
alphamale Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 no...the only time you stay in contact and friendly with any Ex is when you have kids together. otherwise there is no point. move on.

There are some cases, few, that do work out where you can be friends with your ex. She has a BF and he has a GF. They were together for 6 years and after i guess the fifth they said they would be better off as friends. I've hung out with them and its totally platonic. If he was still hooking up with her why would they break up in the first place and move on to others?

Provided: - there's a decent break between dating and picking up the friendship - both of you have the same platonic goal in the new friendship - you keep it within reasonable bounds.... your new SOs always come first. Almost by definition, exes should be people you like and get on with. I think it says something about someone if they can't get on with any of their exes.
BLF04 Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 When me and one of my ex gf's broke up for the 1st time in college, we would hang out once every few weeks and it would always lead to sex. We each had SO's too. Somethin to think about.
