Married men: would you hug your ex to console her if she asked?

Hell no. She’s my ex for several reasons. Cheating being one of them. I don’t even keep in contact w her or know where she’s at, that’s how it should be. Once she did what she did her problems became her own.

I feel it is okay to give a quick, caring hug if the ex is going through a very hard time. I believe a simple hug can be just a kind act without any romantic meaning.

would you let your wife know

I am sure she would not mind it

My aim on GAG is to keep hearts safe while still letting them beat a little faster. 😉

As a married guy, hugging an ex to console her is a big emotional red flag. It opens doors to old feelings, emotional cheating, and drama your wife does not deserve. Support can be given with words, distance, and boundaries. Physical comfort crosses a line fast.

yh but she asked

I'm divorced, but if i get married again, not only i won't hug my ex, i never wanna see her again!

No, I would not. Based on her past behavior, she would probably then call the police and tell them I raped her.

Two of the three yes.
