Yes, it's possible if you don't have any "unfinished business".


Farmgirl
Yes. I dated a guy I have known for 10 years and we are friends and I am faithful.
Its your choice to make.

Sure why not? The more friends the better, I guess, just as long as you stay friends and nothing more.

Of course it is possible. One must make a deliberate choice to BE faithful, though. Do not make the assumption that those who are faithful do so because they lack temptation. They are faithful because they care about someone other than themselves, and see themselves as a person of honor and integrity, not an animal in heat.

yes it is possible to be friend's with an ex. Depending on how close you were when together and how you actually feel after splitting will depend on how your relationship will be as friends.

I have two guy friends that are both exes. One of them used to be my best friend and we hung out alot even when my husband wasnt around. There was no cheating and my husband didnt mind us hanging out. The other one was a bit more tricky, we could be long distance friends but couldnt really hang out because we couldnt trust ourselves around each other.

If you are in a relationship now and want to be friends with an ex it will be up to your significant other. If they trust you and you trust yourself then yes, it is possible.

Good luck

Only if you are really not attracted to them anymore. I didnt think it was possibal untill I became friends with one of my really nasty looking Ex's. I still cant believe I ever dated him!

Yeah. Rarely, but yeah.

Honestly I don't think it is appropriate for a married person to have a friendship with their exes, unless there is a good reason, ie children etc.

But in saying this, of course it is possible to be faithful. Fidelity is a choice.

Yes, many of my friends are still friends with their exes. My mother is still friends with her ex-husband, and it's been, what, 30 years since they divorced? I think it depends a lot on the reasons for the breakup, and how messy the breakup was.

In my opinion....NO....but just because it wouldn't have worked for me, doesn't necessarily mean it won't work for others. Just my way of thinking but if there was ever any LOVE between the two of you, it is so hard to just forget that. Sooner or later you have be in a situation that you won't be able to turn away from. It is really up to you as to what you think you can handle when it comes to your X.. Ask yourself if you still have feelings for them...if so...no, you can't be just friends and if you have gotten over those feelings, sure....why not? You are the only one that can truly answer the question you are asking us. Good luck, I hope things work out for you...

yes, why not. But you must be willing for your new partner to be friends with their ex also.

Possible but difficult. If you wan't to keep it "faithful" don't meet privately and limit mind-influencing chemicals.

Otherwise, be safe and don't get caught.

Yes. We were married for 20 years, went through the most accrimonious divorce but managed to brings things full circle and now are best pals. There is no way either of us would take it any further but are always there to give support and after all we still share a huge number of friends.

no, its not... if you have a new girlfriend ex's are history.. it ruins relationships, FAST

Yes, I KNOW it's possible to be just friends with an ex, because I stayed very good friends with 2 of mine. I even helped one of them find his new wife. The trick was that neither one of us was attracted to the other anymore, and we'd become like brother & sister. If one of you is attracted it won't work.

Yes it is possible!! If you have good self control and both of you have an understanding that it is a platonic relationship.


philosophy
I am friends with an ex-bf of mine and his wife. I have absolutely no feelings for him. And anytime we talk, his wife is always present so there is no room for her to ever worry. Her feelings come first so if she were to ever tell me she was uncomfortable with us talking, I would respect that and leave them alone.

They come over to watch football games with us, out to eat dinner, etc.


musicman47
