Default Do you still try to be friends with your Ex?

I was just wondering how many people here try to be friends with their ex after a relationship is over. Personally i know people on both sides of the coin. Those that have strict rules about never being friends with someone they broke up with. Then there are those that try to keep the person as a friend.

It seems like all the people who try to stay friends always end up being hurt by something. Either they have unresolved feeling for the person or when the other person moves on they go through a little bit of tormnet.

As for me I've always been the type to drop the person if things don't work out. I got enough friends to fill up my time.

Honestly of all the chics I've dated the one's who didn't become friends with their ex's always seemed to have a little more on the ball in terms of a relationship.

What about you OT?

Almost all of my relationships start out as good friendships, so I almost always remain friends with my ex's. One of my best friends is an ex, and I get phone calls from another pretty regularly. None of them live in town which makes things easier, but after the initial horrors of a breakup, I'm cool with stuff.

i really tried this time . . . but for whatever reason she decided that while it was OK for her to talk about dating people or about the hickeys she received from makeout sessions (which didn't bug me), it was not OK for me to tell her that i'm moving in with my new lady friend, despite her telling me that she "just wants me to be happy" like five zillion times, and the fact that SHE broke up with ME.

she accused me of "rubbing it in her face" and stopped talking to me. good riddance to bad rubbish.

Nah -- not really.
If it's someone I parted with on good terms, sure - I'll be cordial if I happen to bump into them. However, there are a few people I'd rather turn and walk away from if I saw them heading my direction.

On the whole? No. Not what I would consider "friends".

I talk to my ex about once a month. It was an amicable break-up. She's in another relationship and is still busy with school. I don't have much desire to talk to her that often. I think I might still have some feelings for her, too, so I prefer to stay out of contact.

Exactly. A friend is somebody I do things with, talk to often, would invite to my home, bail out of jail if they needed it, share problems with, someone I completely trust, etc...while I'm on friendly terms with all of my exes but one, I don't consider them friends in the real sense of the word.

This forum really needs to have more stickies or "threads of note" or even subcategories.

It depends on how the relationship ended. I don't really keep in touch with one of my exes, but we'd help each other out if help was really needed, so that's a close as I've gotten to having an ex as a friend. We were just headed in different directions, so there was no bitterness in the break-up.

My last ex tried being friendly after we broke up, but I would do nothing but shoot him laser death looks and ignore him until he went away. Tip for you guys: Don't try to make nice with an ex when she knows you lied about another girl being in the picture.

I tried... she played games
For some reason she got upset when i talked about girls and ****... like if a chick was hot in a movie we were watchin i would say so, and she would get upset ( like 6 months after we broke up )
She kept pretending to want to get back togeather, and then she would be like, we are just friends
So I tried to completely block any sexual thoughts of her outta my mind, and then one day i tried to talk to her about something, and the answer was basically umm i dont care
So... she wasnt even capable of being a good friend, so i decided to say bye bye for good

doesn't matter to me. but one of them is dating one of my best friend's(a few years after we broke up), so i kinda have to be friendly with her.

if they want to be a biatch about it, no. If they act normal and cool, yeah i'll be friends.

But ya know? for some reason everytime i see an ex, i remember hitting it. kinda weird, but who the hell cares.

anyone else see an old ex and remember "hitting" that $hit? or is it just me?

I am friends with just about all my ex's.

works like this:
There is a reason I dated them in the first place.
No one can ruin your character worse than an ex.
Always valueable to have female friends that know you.

I am very good friends with one of my ex's, the other one I would like to lock in a porta potty for about a week, then make her explode.
