My ex and I are good friends. Is anyone else friends with theirs?
"I think we should just be friends."--Thats how we broke up. Some people I know despise their ex so I was just wondering.

Well good for you if you could be friends with your ex. Me and my ex said we would...and we only talked like twice after we broke up. We just..don't talk. I personally finds it to be hard to be friends w/ an ex...emotions get in the way sometimes.

Eh, I think he wanted to be friends, but he ignores me now... I kinda do want to be friends with him again though.

Nah, when I say "we should still be friends" I mean it. I'm friends with my exs and I try to keep them close. Believe it or not, exs are great friends.

My ex & I are like best friends but sometimes how I feel for him gets in the wayy. People shouldn't hate their ex's...well that's what I think anyways.

those two just don't know when to give up.

It depends on the relationship I had with them. There are only like 3 ex's of mine that I dont like and I have one ex whom i'd rather never see again in life. Other than that I usually stay on really good terms with mine.

I've never had an ex, but most of my friends are not getting along too well with their exs, mostly because they're just uncomfortable.

im not friends with any of my exes...i guess all of my past relationships ended on a bad note. it's not that i dislike them, i just don't see them or talk to them anymore. i love my current boyfriend and i have no reason to have any contact with them.

There's a great quote that says.. "If you're friends with your ex, it means you either never loved them, or you still do."
Personally, I'm friends with some of my ex's.. but not all. I've lost touch with most of them since I moved.

i've attempted to be friends with mine. but...we both have a tendency to get into our old habits. and...it always starts the same cycle again. "i love you", "i love you too", "let's be together", "okay!"....and so on and so forth. each and every time, he breaks my heart. so...this time, i'm hoping i can stay away from talking to him. for both of our sakes. he's incapable of being honest, and i'm incapable of turning down an "i love you so much".
since, you know, the third time's the charm. even though..i have no idea how that pertains to us. i keep telling myself that i won't let it happen a fourth time.

Hmmm, I'm not sure how I feel about that. While I am best friends with one my ex's, I definently lov
ed him, but don't anymore. Yet, with the newest ex, we are trying to be friends and what not...IDK. Eep. I confused myself.

He just said he wanted to break up and went silent and just looked at me.
Infact, I had to ask him for the reason too. Me and my ex broke up coz he said when Uni starts he doesn't have time.
I still wanted to be friends with him....... I had to be the one to ask.... he did agree... but he ignores me nowadays..... his brother ignores me too....
Well..... I guess he doesn't want to be friends like how we used be back in High School...

not really...
my first ex, not at all. he said we would be friends but i don't even see him or anything anymore.
and my second ex... eh sometimes we'll say hi but that's it.

Apr 27 2006, 09:46 PM
A couple.
Not my recent ones though.
1- because we had a really really bad break up. And whenever we're around each other, it just stirs up an argument, and it's pointless.
2-because I still have feelings for him and he cheated on me, and everytime I see him I feel like crap and cry hysterically like a stupid little kid afterwards.
Rachel
Apr 27 2006, 11:05 PM
^Hey, I basically am having the same problems! Definently #1, but more like we start fights in private. #2 because of the little feelings I have, him bragging about sleeping with a trashy girl makes me cry.

Eh.
I highly doubt it.
3 months after we broke up, he called me telling me he misses me and such. And told me he broke things off with her, and I was so quick to get my hopes up only to find out, not only is she with him but they're engaged.

I've only had one boyfriend thus far, and I'm dating him currently, so I have no ex's to be friends with.
BUT..when we were broken up, we didn't talk very much at all. Things were too awkward.

We are not on speaking terms now. He has changed and I can't have in my life right now. I have been crying for too long.

I agree with Rachel, yet again.
We were on a break for about two months. In the first month, all I wanted to do was get back together with him, all I ever did was cry. In the second month, however, I grew a backbone and finally understood that I could do better. Ironically, this is when he saw how good he had it before, so he came crawling back, but I was over it. Last week, I finally got the nerve to tell him that I didn't think we'd ever date again. He took it pretty hard, but that was his own fault. So I guess he's pretty upset with me right now, but I'm over it. We aren't talking as of right now.

Nope. He found out about the new boyface, and now I don't think he would ever speak to me again. I feel bad, but what am I supposed to do? We've been broken up for months. I'm not going to spend my time sulking. I hope we will be friends one day.

God we are basically like the same!! Except he hasn't come to his senses yet and see what he lost.
I don't really want him in my life but he insists on being friends....

I'm only slightly friends with one of my ex's. I cut the rest out of my life. There has been too much drama and crap between us that I never even want to look or picture them again. I can't be friends with someone who is a ridiculous liar and a gossip, an actual psychopath, or is a ridiculous liar AND two-faced. I tried to be friends with one of them out of pity, it didn't work out it just made sh*t worse, he was disgustingly clingy and jealous.
