If you were close with an ex's family, would you still try to stay in touch with them after the break up? Or is that inappropriate? What do you think?

I would think it would be awkward for everyone involved.

It depends on the term you and your ex left off on. You guys also need to come to an understanding so talk to him about it.

No. Not healthy at all. I talk by the experience. That was a stage and now you have to go on and keep with your life

Why would you even want to stay in touch? Even if they were nice people and you got along well with them, it's weird...

I was pretty close with my ex’s family. They really liked me but no I still wouldn’t want to keep in touch with them. It’s like staying friends with an ex partner. No thanks.

Depends on the situation, but I wouldn't.

It's not inappropriate. It's just, WHY?

I think thats weird. I don't see the reason why.

  Umm I guess it depends on why they broke up
  If it was mutual or because of some unchangable circumstances and you are still friends with the ex then yah it’s fine. Otherwise it isn’t
  My brothers girlfriend broke up with him because she was lesbian. He still went with her parents to the opera a month or 2 later
