Is it easy for you to make friends with you Ex?

hi bebs08, After the break up i think no one would like to their EX especially if it cost too much heartaches but if they will see each other again after a year a simple nod and look will explain it all building a friendship with your EX will not be easy becoz its just like digging up the past. They say " Friends can be lovers but lovers cannot be friends" but of course it is still depend on a person how will they handle this kind of situation. For me i am willing to be his friend maybe a so called friend but i think he don't feel the same. happy posting

I seem to get along fairly well with my ex husband. We have four children together, and we get along as much as we did before we divorced. The only thing that is different is that we don't live together, everything else (besides intimacy) is the same. I think we did the right thing to end our relationship, because we just not what each other needed, but yes...I would consider us "friends."

not really... to be honest with you, i don't make friends with any of my exes because it is just too hard for me... i know that if i make friend with my ex, it will make me harder to forget him and will make me more miserable as i will keep on thinking of him... take care and have a nice day...

No I don't think it would be easy to be my ex's friend. I don't wish him any kind of wrong but the guy is better off far away from me as much is possible. I think the only satisfaction I would get is that he is now overweight and I have lost weight, something he always told me to lose weight. I can't even stand his wife since she was the once that got pregnant while we were married.

It depends of the both parties there some remained friends and some are never.If you've been hurt to much and can't able face him well I think it wouldn't.It hard to be friends after all,because he reminds of the pain he made that's why some are better to forget that person ever.There are times,when you completely accepted the failure relationship and some were never get to hurt then there's big possibility they become friends. There come a time when you finally understand and remember everything happens for a reason.Maybe we get to much hurt and pain but we must understand that it happen for a purpose.Even how much we didn't want it to happen and we can't even avoid it. Glad for those who value friendship after a broken relationship.And it's the best ever relationship, friends are always friends no matter what happen.There is no break up in a relationship.If we engage friendship after a failure relationship I know there's still remain love and concern and most of all the pain.But,It will just ease and it' better to cure an bleeding scar when you let it to mend.There would awkward feeling but it just in start.When you trying to accept and created a good friendship then it will cure.When the right time came,you'll overcome all of those pain,you'll able to admire and value what you were having right now.You'll able to hits a joke to him and be comfortable.

it's a lot easier when you're with a new partner to then make friends with the ex; it also depends how it all ended. if it was fairly mutual and you agree to disagree there's no reason not to be civil and on good terms-however i don't know how genuine that friendship would ever be. if you still harbour feelings for the person it's better to cut and run for a while but enough to just let them know you don't hate them

I think if the couple have full understanding between each other,even they can not be husband and wife,they can be good friends.I think it is really helpful when they got same kids.Because the harmony between them will do good to their kids.I have seen this kind of relationship.

One of my ex-boyfriends and I tried to be friends after we broke up. When I broke up with him, he asked me if we could still be friends, but it didn't work out because he didn't really want to be friends, he was hoping that we would become a couple again. He kept on talking about us and he told me that he was sure that I would change my mind one day and that we would become a couple again. It made me sad to see his sadness and disappointment, but for me the relationship was over. After a while we both moved on, I got a new boyfriend and he got a new girlfriend. He wanted the 4 of us to be friends, go out together etc, but my boyfriend didn't like the idea and neither did his new girlfriend, and eventually the friendship ended.

I don't think it would be easy to be friend with my ex. There's a hole in my feeling that caused by past relationship. But the best way is to be friend it's good relationship we should make, because there's no ex friend .

For me based on my experience, we broke up in good way... so we still good friends, we still have the communication just like before, nothings change, it's only a matter of understanding and acceptance.
