Another one, her and I have agreed that despite the end of our relationship, the feelings between us are still strong and being just friends isn't really an option, it will become toxic and frustrating. So our involvement with eachother still has a romantic and sexual aspect to it.
Good friends no. That would require discussing personal things which I would have no desire to. Maybe good aquantences would be a better term in my case. But overall I wouldn't see the point. As time goes on there really isn't any reason to keep them included in your life. Many times it just causes a lingering attatchment that hinders your own life progress. Unless you want hope of getting back with them which again is usually a bad idea
I am friendly with my ex husband because we have two kids together. It helps that we get along and kids see us as friendly. beyond that … respectfully… we are loyal to our new partners. mad for others, no. I have no reason to be their friends.
I can be but it’s up to them. I don’t believe in grudges or clinging to the past. Not everyone is capable of that which depends on the situation and the individuals involved at the time. I’m personally able to move forward
Possibly.. one ex that ghosted me and came back in friends with now, but I can sense h wants things back so I feel like he’s just being friends with me hoping me and my boyfriend will break up and I’d choose him again.
Yeah it could maybe be in a few years, because I do get over stuff but I won't forget the shit they did, so there will be no chances of becoming more then purely friends but like I can still like the person, without wanting more
Only if there was children involved I would be civil and friendly but not too close as affairs and cheating are born out of these kind of relationship. Your Ex already knows your weak spots and can take advantage of that before you know it you are in bed together, cheating behind your new partners.
I can be nice to someone without an Agenda but a friend is an outworking of Planning. No, it’s impossible to be in formal relationship without Intent. My opinion…
Nah. I'm over my ex but I know he will always try to have something more with me. Is best if he stays away from me than living in a fantasy. Also out of respect for my husband I don't have any intentions to befriend none of my exes.
No, because the feelings are too intense. Even if we moved on somehow and met new people, if we saw eachother and reconnected, we will reCONNECT literally...
Nope, mainly because me and my ex really weren't aligned and don't have much in common. So staying friends would be weird since there is nothing much we share.
Yes, after 20ish years my exwife reached out to me and we are friends. She lives halfway across the nation, but we have talked and texted. Wish each other happy holidays and birthdays.
I’d be willing to be friends with any of my exes because I haven’t dated anyone else since highschool. It’s been so long and I don’t have any feelings anymore so I wouldn’t find it weird or anything.
I am good friends with my ex. Obviously it always depends on why and how it ended, but most people here seem to say they would never be friends with an ex no matter what. Shows what kind of people they are...

No. It can complicate future relationships. I think it would be unfair to a new partner.
I have no need to keep in touch with an ex. Even if it ended on good terms. I wouldn't be interested in what he's doing on his life anymore.

I am currently and I’m happy for em. It all depends on the situation honestly
Mine please? https://www. girlsaskguys. com/dating/q4827291-doesn-t-seem-to-be-as-interested-as-i-thought#new
No, because the feelings are too intense. Even if we moved on somehow and met new people, if we saw eachother and reconnected, we will reCONNECT literally...
Yeah I am friends with a few of them.
good friends with Ex wife and ex girlfriend x 2
It greatly comes down to how things ended.

Yeah, of cours. My first relationship ended on good terms and i still talk with her daily, we're still good friends (she's part of the friend group)
He was a douche. I don't think he has a positive view on women. It's best to stay away and never look back.
