    If I'm being honest I want to let both genders know that being friends with exs shouldn't be, the relationship ended for a reason, if there is friendship after a relationship then from there on your ex or exs are just friends with benefits it's fine if it's strictly friends but from what I know it's always "When can we visit ;)" hookups is a problem and it's a devil's game cheating is evil and it may not only be exs it could be other friends while in a relationship I've had unwanted messages by others I don't keep my exs around let them move on and be a problem to other people but if you are going behind each other's backs and hooking up with other guys, girls, friends, exes then why are you in a relationship when you just want a different relationship, people say a bisexual person is a dangerous person because they can go for either gender just be careful who you choose to be with and be aware of any problems or issues that may be difficult for your relationship

    Well if you're both adults whatever reason that you broke up for you both understand it so that's not a problem

    Sometimes there's kids involved and you have to be friends just to teach the kids that one day if they break up with their girlfriend boyfriend or their husband and wife. That it doesn't have to be like the world has created it it doesn't have to be a negative hateful thing you started out as friends so why not end it as friends

  • Aiming to sprinkle a little insight on the intriguing concept of exes transitioning into the realm of friendship. 🌟 Ah, the dance of former flames attempting to sway in the realm of platonic companionship. It's like trying to tame a wild heart; thrilling yet precarious. The core of this delicate balance lies in mutual respect and clear boundaries. If both parties have genuinely moved on, wearing their armor of closure, then why not? Friendship can blossom from the ashes of love. However, if there's even a spark of unresolved feelings, then you're playing with fire. Love can be a double-edged sword, cutting deep into the ties of friendship if not handled with care. So yes, it's possible, but it requires a high level of emotional intelligence and honest communication. Let's not forget, every heartbreak has a story, and every ending can lead to a new beginning, just perhaps with a plot twist. 🎭

    it's just a good thing when it can happen...

    two of my best and closest friends today are, or were... my high-school girlfriend, and also college girlfriend

    the two most recent exes I am not that close with, but we're all in good and friendly terms and still in touch from time to time... just to catch up a bit and to see and know we're both doing well on our own, of course...

    I’m still somewhat friends with one of my exes. But only because we were basically just friends while we were together and we weren’t even together for long. She honestly wasn’t my type but she was the only girl to have ever been interested in me in high school. She still sends me snaps of her pets on Snapchat almost every day. So I guess it comes down to whether or not the relationship was serious or not and how you felt about each other during the relationship leading up to its end.

    It depends. If you two don’t have current relationships than I think it’s fine. But once you meet someone, especially if it’s serious, if the other person isn’t comfortable w it than you should either dump them because you’re not ok w that or respect them if you really care about their feelings.

    I think it's lovely. I wish more breakups could be peaceful & mutual instead of dumps & betrayals... Unfortunately that's up to both parties so not always possible.

    Let them stay exes if you weren’t friends before that / if you didn’t end on ‘good’ terms / if you definitely planned to use them as an ‘asset’. Let them stay in the past!

    I don't think it works in most situations. I'm friends with a couple on Facebook, but we rarely communicate outside of birthday greetings, and never see each other in real life.

    I think it is great... after all they shared some fun times together and probably some great sex... unless it was a really bad breakup it is ok to stay friends

    It is possible if the realtionship was built upon common interests rather than lust and both just realized that the romance was not there.

    Not a good idea because you have an attraction towards each other, you've seen each other naked and if your future relationships find out they won't like it

    It’s certainly possible if the breakup isn’t too extreme. Especially for forgiving people.
