grudges suck
-
It's a situational thing. Typically I don't mind if they try, but I don't like appearing needy.
-
yeah if you were good friends BEFORE then why not try to put the past behind you? where it belongs anyway.
-
its hard if it is right after. give it some time then maybe. Sexual chemistry? Probably not as i wouldn't want to pu that to test
-
why would you want a friend whom you already know you don't get alone with?
-
I wouldn't 'try' per se but I would hope that we could be friendly at some point.
-
A person can TRY ; BUT for the most part EXs are "EXs" for a reason and it is best to not to keep a relationship UNLESS their were kids and you have to talk ect because of the kids ...
-
better than being enemies, i say it is worth the shot, thanks+4.
-
No..when I'm done with my ex..I'm finished with her for good.
-
It depends on who they are.
-
Hell No !!!!
-
Nope. Not even if it ended well. It's dangerous.
-
I wouldn't try to be friends with them even if it ended well. However, if I couldn't avoid them then I'd try to be civil with them.

Its always a good idea to have people in your life who know you on levels beyond the ordinary; they're good sounding boards for things, I find. Sometimes the honesty (or animosity in some cases) of the conversations can be frustrating, and downright insulting ... but if your skin is thick enough, and emotionally, it's over, then the honesty (from their perception of course) can give you perspective where other friends may not venture :-)
-
Yes, in fact, my ex-wife is my wife’s really good friend since they met. We celebrate dinners and birthdays together with no animosity toward anyone.
-
Yeah sure, given the right amount of time (and body type ;)

nobody even knows the definition of "bad breakup" like i do. want to hear a short version? lets just say, he cheated, i found out. he lied to my face about 30 times, he swore to GOD he didnt cheat. my idiot self beleived him. Then he calls me telling me how he wants a Different girlfriend, but wants me to be the GIRL ON THE SIDE. and i said no, his new girlfriend (which he cheated with, then told me he WASNT dating, when he was) asked me if he had called me, because that night he HAD called me telling me how much he loved and missed me, (of course he left out the little detail that he had a girlfriend) so i told her the truth, and she dumped him , then he called me a liar, me and him got into a HUGE yelling arguement infront of the whole school, telling people i BEGGED to be his girl on the side. And he started rumors about me, Broke up me and my new boyfriend. Andd is a total jerk. Now, would i want to be friends with him... or would i try? i think the obvious answer here is NO. He's hurt me enough. And being friends with him, would just kill it all.
-
friends not controlling lovers can work. it worked for me.
-
no...even if it didn't end badly...when i'm done, i'm done.
-
i wouldn't.. if it ended badly then someone is real pissed at the other, i guess if whoever didnt fuck up decides to be friends then i guess it would be ok, but i wouldn't make an attempt. time mends all wounds, but its up to u thats just from my experience
-
well they will hate you either way and try to make you jealous so be careful or youll hurt yourself
-
No, even if they owed up to everything, I still couldn't think of why I would want too. It would be too awkward and more importantly trust would be missing.
-
Nope....That simple.
-
In a word ... NO .
-
I am only friends with one ex..and it didn't end badly. No as for being friends with someone where the relationship did not end well...I don't think I would want that energy around. There was one ex that ended quite erratically, and although I forgive him and actually feel kind of sorry for him, to let him back in my life, even as a friend, would not be a positive experience. Best to let by gones be by gones..and move on..:-)
