Is it ok to stay friends with an ex?

I dated a guy from the age 14 to 16. We went our separate ways but to this day we are still friends and call each other every once in awhile to catch up. My husband isn't jealous of our friendship.

To remain friends after a breakup is an amazing thing! So many people throw the whole thing away, but sometimes people make better friends than they do a couple.

I'm great friends with my ex, I still call her, text her, and still meet her (I make sure her new boyfriend comes though, I don't wanna start anything)

It's possible to do it. I don't reccomend rushing into the situation though.

If you two want to be friends, be sure that your hearts can heal, and that you can move on before trying to be friends. I have seen nothing good come from the "let's be friends" line when both people are not ready to be in each other's presence. Friendships take commitment as well, if both people can't commit time to the friendship without being involved with one another romantically. Then they either can't be friends or should wait before becoming friends

Oh the lovely "EX". Well, think of what you're asking here. Friends. With an Ex? There is supposed to be a reason why two people didn't work out. I personally think that it is never ok to have a boyfriend who is friends with his ex and vise versa. Why? Because if they are that good of friends after the fact, then they obviously have unfinished business. I would assume that at least one of them still carries feelings over from their relationship. If you or anyone you know has ever been cheated on and heard that old tiring excuse that goes something like "Oh we're just really good friends now!". Um yeah. It's certainly not flying by with me. I think it's important to let go of the past. It's not fair to the current lover to be selfish and drag them into a situation that you just can't get over.


Oh, My Answer is "B". lol

It's okay to stay friends with them, as long as they know the relationship is in the past. If they don't get this, it turns into a mess. I tried being friends with my last ex (even though he cheated on me, I was nice to him). After about a month he asked me to be his girlfriend again! Safe to say I ended that right away.

To tell you the truth I'm Currently dating my ex's best friend.
We've been together for 9 months and I am good friends with my ex
Depending on how your ex is going to react. Ok lets say if your ex boyfriend is totally cool with your current boyfriend then it won't be a problem he'll understand. He won't do anything weird. Or tell him anything. But if he's still not over you then that's a problem. He is going to tell horrible stuff, even lies to make you two not be together. He's doing it on purpose or not. Who knows. But you should make that decision yourself you know your ex boyfriend more than I do.
if you trust your ex then it shouldn't bother you. Good luck :)
