Can you have a friendship with an old Love, if your married?

I suppose its Possible. But so are most things. Is it really worth the temptation? You may say there isn't any temptation but theres a damn good chance there WILL be some eventually. Why risk it? You can always find other friends. At the very least, when you're with your ex be sure to have your spouse with you. It will keep things clear and make your spouse and probably yourself feel much more comfortable.
And dont try to lie to your spouse about it either. Tell them who the person is and about your past if they don't already know.

Sure, if you want to make your spouse miserable. Is it really worth it? (If you answer yes, that's not a good sign.)

I would strongly advise against that. Temptation will pop up and then what are you going to do? Would you want you spouse being friends with an old love?

Be very careful with this. The flame can be re lit...and it might burn you.

That would really take more details to answer with a sincere answer. Especially if you're married to the jealous type. Have you asked your partner. My answer would be to your simple question, be better to just stay apart. Never know, old flames could start burning, and the next thing you know trouble. Never say never.

not really, especially not if he is single.

The friendship is not the problem.

The problem comes into play when feelings start to surface again and all of a sudden, people start getting hurt.


If you think you can handle it then go ahead, but be extremely cautious.

NO too much temptation and you should avoid it if you want your marriage to last.

I can't have any friends because, my wife is the most jealous person that I have ever known!

Personally, I don,t think it's a good idea b/c there is always the possibility that one or both of you might still have some feelings lingering, and you'd only be setting yourself up for cheating....keep in my that cheaters never win and eventually you'll be caught.


kc
ofcourse yes,depends on wht your partner says and thinks about it.but if you are talking love relationship then it would be little tricky question.


kMaz
depends on whether or not it bugs your spouse. thats what matters most.


luvlisteningtomusic
If your spouse accepts them to be in your life being a friend then yes. If the spouse says no then you need to respect thier feelings.

I wish I could have a big neon sign, just outside your door with a huge NO on it.If you want a good , strong, happy marriage, say no to the dude, there's a reason he was not the one you married.

I was with my ex for more than 15 years (not married). When I broke it off, we remained friends, which seemed fine. However, since I've become engaged, I'm not so comfortable with maintaining the friendship. It feels disloyal to my fiance to still maintain a relationship of any kind with someone I used to love. My fiance trusts me, but I just don't feel right about it. I know that if it were the other way, and my fiance were in touch with an old love, that I would feel jealous about it, eventhough I trust him completely. So, I suppose it's possible, but I'd have to ask why you'd want to, and why you'd risk hurting your spouse.

Sure. But I would suggest keeping your distance.

1. You don't want to fall back in love with the other person.
2. You don't want to spend too much time with your "friend" and neglect your spouse.

I would say its ok to chat once in a while.

Think of it this way if you have no problem telling the man your with now about it, then yeah why not!

But if you have a problem with telling the man your with now about it then..maybe there is a reason why your afraid to tell him.

Yes, I do.
I'm still good friends with my first love. We lost out virginity's to each other very long ago when we just hit our teen years. We know that the relationship chemistry is gone in our lives, we grew up and out of each other before I even met my fiance. My fiance knows that nothing goes on between us. I love him like a friend but nothing more. We see each other once in a blue, not very often, and we usually just give one another advice and are there for each other when the going gets rough.. but nothing negative goes on!


Lilly
You can see each other at Annual Parties, but socializing doesn't work!! The temptation is always there.
I see one of my x-loves every couple years cuz he's also my brother's best friend. My husband's X love can't keep her hands to herself!! We are no longer friendly with her, and it's been 29 yrs, and each time she has popped in, calls or gets near trouble is too.
So, she is trouble!!! Thank God he's respects how I FEEL!!

I would not want my husband doing it. So ask yourself If you wouldn't mind then I guess it is OK to do. Do on to others as you would have done to you.


ghettogal
of cours you can as long as you stay loyal to your spouse

You'd be treading on dangerous waters if you did. Look up the statistics on those who cheat with ex-lovers; it is very high. If this person was a friend of yours and your spouse, then it could work.


Dreamer
if your over that person then yes

yes as long as you tell your hubby.........


Lana
Maybe. As long as there arent any flames still there, and your wife isnt a psychotic axe-wielding jealous maniac

Not if your living up to your vows it's too dangerous. It all depends on where you are in your relationship with your husband.
