Is it okay to befriend an ex?

Question

Is it okay to befriend an ex who was caught cheating? Not physically cheating but more of them doing it online. Sad to say that I'm not completely over my ex, but I am over this stupid argument that led us drifted apart. I miss him more as a friend. I don't think I could ever give him that second chance of us getting back together, but I'm willing to put the past behind us and hopefully fix what was broken. Does that sound stupid?

It's not stupid at all. To be completely honest and non-PC for a sec, every man does stupid shit like that, or at least thinks about it. It doesn't mean that he doesn't love or care about you or the people in his life. I'm sure you realize that on some level, or you wouldn't want him back in your life. Whatever happens, just be safe and realistic.

I'd say no. Don't befriend him... he hurt you, why be his friend.

Forget him and move on being friends with your ex won’t work anyway I guarantee the very moment he starts dating another girl you are gonna get jealous and it will make it harder for you to move on with your life

From what I heard, he already has a girlfriend. Their relationship isn't working out, he's already getting sick of her and he can't kick her out because she has no where to go. I guess karma does come around eventually.

I also heard that he thought I had blocked him on everything social media wise. Which I never did, I got a new phone and lost all contact. I'm stupid and I don't remember stuff. Someone said that it bothered him in some way because he felt like I did block him.

Even if we did became friends and she's still around, it doesn't mean that I have to like her or be her friend.

I still think the best thing is to move on never give a cheater the time of day because that is basically telling the cheater that it was okay what he done and it shows them that there is no consequences for the wrongs they have done wrong it doesn’t matter if the cheating happened online he still emotionally cheated on you
