Is it possible to friends with an ex?
Question: In some situations, yes it is. My boyfriend is friends with some of his exes, and I'm friends with some of them too. (His exes, not mine) I've only remained distant friends with one ex, because I dragged things in other relationships out rather than ending them when I should have. Answer: Its possible! Me and my ex-boyfriend broke up and we r still good friends!! I dont no about marage cause im too young to get married!lol Answer: It all depends on the situation. I think it is possible and I know that it does happen. In my case however, it is a resounding no. Maybe one day we'll settle our differences but for now we're better off not friends. Answer: Well that depends on which ex you mean. I have many !!! LOL....just joking....lol. Actually....I still live with my ex....she's my best mate....lousy wife, but the best mate one could ever have. But my first wife ??? Uh uh !!! I couldn't even be bothered to throw rocks at her. So it depends on who your ex is to YOU. Wombat Answer: Originally Posted by cyber-sibes In my case, NO. Me too! I tried being friends with my ex but it didn't work out. Then two years later and for some stupid reason, he asked me out and for another stupid reason, I accepted. Dinner was good but the conversation lagged and when he kissed me good night, that told the whole story. I had absolutely no feelings for him at all...friendship or otherwise. That was in 1990 and I have not seen him since. Answer: Originally Posted by Puckstop31 It is possible but not a good idea, IMHO. The trouble comes when one of you find a new relationship. Double the risk if the couple has been intimate together. Once you cross the "sex line", the die is cast for better or worse. A sex line ???? What on earth is a sex line ??? I know what sex is, and I know what a line is. But I'm not real sure what it is when you put those two things together. Are you some sort of randy physicist or something ???

Wombat well then you are missing out lol I could tell you what it is.... but then I would have to kill you or break your legs or some other mobster type thing Answer: I think it's possible ... but not easy or common. My ex and I are civil to each other. We decided long ago that was the only way to be, since we have a child together. I suppose you could even say we are "friendly" with each other ... we chit chat for a few minutes about non-crucial things if we call each other about our son. We give each other a hug goodbye when we meet to pick up or drop off our son. But are we friends, in the true sense of the word? I'm not sure. We caused each other a lot of heartache and pain. We obviously could not live together. However, we shared everything for over a decade, including the most priceless thing of all, our child. I think, if I were truly in serious trouble, I could call Greg and he would help me ... and not just because I'm his son's mother. I know I would do the same for him. So, I suppose that makes us friends ... but not even close to the friendship I have with my "real" friends now. I think it's just more of a long, shared past and a child together. Answer: Originally Posted by sparks19 well then you are missing out lol I could tell you what it is.... but then I would have to kill you or break your legs or some other mobster type thing Ah...I see.......my little mind is turning over now, after realising that your answer was connected to your employment.....line = string.......and beads. Yes of course........don't the Japanese do that sort of thing ????? LOL Wombat Answer: Most definately. My inlaws were a prime example. They were great friends but shouldn't have ever been married. They always had little affairs here and there during their marriage. When they finally divorced, they both immediately met (aqnd married) other people. When my mother-in-law died, she and my father-in-law were best friends, and their spoiuses were best friends. They always joked that they loved each other but just couldn't live with each other. Answer: Reading through some of these responses gives me some hope. I hate the thought of not having my husband in my life, but things are really rough right now because of the split. We both want everything to be amicable regardless of what happens, which is a good thing I guess. I would love to be able to remain friends with him after everything is final since we've been in each others lives for 10 years now. We started out as friends and got married, and I guess we were just the type mentioned in some of these posts: friends that got married but really couldn't live together. I know we both really wanted it to work, but it just hasn't worked out that way. Answer: I would say it depends on the ex.It is possible to be friendly in public but not a close friend in private. You can afford to not hate them but not be the best of friends anymore.(if that makes any sense) Answer: I have an ex who is still very much my friend and we always talk and chat on the phone or mail - he now lives state side and he and his wife visit me and John and I them. We all get along great and the fun thing is that his wife was actually a friend of Johns, so we are all comfortable in each others company.
