Are you friends with your ex or not? why?

we are. my friends say that you should not be friends because of the reasons that your heart might hurt more and to make you heart completely healed. but it depends on your current boy/girlfriend,it depends on you actually! have you ever moved on? are you doing this to be emotionally reconnected with him or just letting him go? i think you should be friends.let go if he/she dont wants you - that is reality.if you were in a fight, then say sorry for as many times as you can. if he/she will not forgive you then, its all up to him/her. This issue is not for you anymore! I have also posted the same topic as yours, check it out! http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2389796.aspx

I'm best friends with my ex because she is awesome, we just didn't agree on everything so we had problems scheduling dates, 1 on 1 time or a wedding so we ended and we still act like we are dating. We are "Friends with Benefits" i guess you could say, because we still kiss and get a little intimate at times, please tell me if this is "wrong" immoral or unethical, please.

I stayed friends with an ex-boyfriend. We both began a new relationship and met up as friends behind our partners knowing. We had split up in the February and we met up again in the July as friends. We visited a waterside city and walked to a beautiful historic house. In the garden we chatted and it seemed we both regretted splitting up. However we put our feeling apart. Over the next year we keep meeting up on a regular basis. I was worried my partner would find out and would get totally the wrong idea about him and me. The last time we met up was at a historic castle. Know we are not going to meet up again and that feels like closure to me. I can remember some very happy times with him. I have moved on and so has he. It was strange your ex-boyfriend disappeared without saying goodbye. It must have been awful to see him again with his wife. So she had been his girlfriend shortly after you two had been together. I am sorry it felt like such an awkward situation for you.

I am still friends with my ex. I think it's because we started out as friends first and moved into a relationship. It lasted for a while and then we decided that we were better off friends then in a relationship with one another.

I`m not friend with my ex boyfriend. Altough in thoery I think these is great i can not do these. Is just to weird for me.

Its kind of difficult to remain friends with the father of my kids. I loved him with all of my heart and thought he loved me too however he cheated on me and then got angry because i left him. however now i am the mother of two gorgeous boys and he is missing them and their life

I used to say yes because I thought I was friends with an ex. Turned out he was only staying friends because he thought that one day I would realize that we belonged together and I would go back to him. Well he waited 10 years and then met someone else. Then I never heard from him again. He doesn't even know me if I see him in the store. What a douch. I am glad I never stayed with him. So what I think is you can be civil and nice but if there is an ex who is still around it is because one of them are still hoping to get back together. With that being the case, a new boyfriend or girlfriend would not likely want you guys going out to the movies or something alone. The only reason to be friends with an ex is if you are parents to kids and you are trying to get along. If not, be civic, but that is about it. Maybe there are a few RARE cases that long lasting friendships come out of dating, but they are few and far between.

Hi, For me, I need to see the situation on why we broke up last time. If we were to broke up in a good condition and get both parties mutual agreement,then we still can be friend. Maybe it is better to be friend rather than life partner. Since your ex has got married,then you should congratulates them and don't think of the past. Both of you still can be friend and no harm to have one more friend in life rather than have one enemy in life.

It is hard to be acting normally or naturally when your ex is around. I believe that one can never be truly friends with one's ex. I think the other needs a lot too much about you and you can't help being awkward in his presence. However, if you can't avoid the situation, you just have to be civil about it like what you did.

For me, "ex" means the past and eliminated from my memory; therefore, I'm never going to be friends with my ex. It also depends on the situation, some ex-couples didn't have any bad feelings toward each other and have separated on good terms.

When we were still together with my ex boyfriend, we made a promise that if ever we broke up, we will still remain friends but it turned out to be different. We didn't also had a proper closure. I didn't get a chance to talk to him after he was blown away by the wind.lol.... I don't know where he is right now. But one thing is for sure, we will never be friends. Well, I also believe that ex lovers will never be friends..

I think should not, i have just broken up, but still i don't want to see her again even if i love her so much. First, because of one still love the other, can it be friendship? or just love-at-1-side? or hurtful relationship? Second, you wont feel interested in him/her to be a friend anymore. Friend to love, yes, it's possible, but love to friend, haiz, impossible
