Friends with an Ex?
| Wed, 11-02-2005 - 1:45pm |
So this is a follow up question to a previous post i made regarding my best friend who drives me nuts with her relationship sagas. she's constantly attempts to be "friends" with ex's...but it seems like it's only to get revenge.
So what do you think...is it ok to be friends with an ex?

this can be a tough one, but i think it's ok, depending on the individuals involved. so long as there is mutual respect for the other (as well as his/her new SO), and there is no underlying motivation, i think that a friendly relationship is fine. i am friends with some of my exs, but boundaries are respected. when you've been with someone for a while, that person becomes someone that is/was special in your life. you don't always have to eject him/her out of your life. there are situations when i think maybe there should be no contact, but so long as the above mentioned things are adhered to, then i think it's fine.
