A question I sent out to my male friends, I'd like an answer for. I'm sorry I ended up in the wrong area, but yours was the only direct link to submit a question, and I've been very happy with some advice you have given me in the past. This is what I recently posed:

A question for my male friends.....



Would you be okay with a close friend of yours dating your ex-wife, or ex-girlfriend?



I am considering dating one of my ex-husband's very good friends. It seems an interest has developed on both of our parts. My ex and I have been apart for three years and he is remarried and has another child and another on the way. I feel he's definitely moved on, BUT.... I'd really like to date his friend, just want to see what the concensus is on how it will be taken.



I personally, could care less what he thinks about whoever I date, but the friendship between these two is very old and very important and my conscience draws me to ask this question before I go forward.

I'll let you all know after I've gotten your answers too.

I would not consider my friend a good one if he were to date my ex-wife.
