QOTD

Have or do you have a friendly relationship with an ex?

Re: QOTD

  • Nope.  But I also wasn't friends with any of my Ex's before we dated.  Also all the breakups didn't end in a good way, so best to just leave them in the past.
  • A couple.

    The ex right before DH stayed in touch for a while.  We both wanted different things out of life and were in different places (career-wise, life-wise) even though we lived together.  The last 6 months we lived together we started growing apart and then decided to mutually end the relationship.  We were FB friends for a while.  DH was friends with him too on FB.  Then he deleted his account because I guess he is now some big manager at a huge government contractor and didn't want to take any chances of something stupid ruining his career.

    The other is my serious high school bf.  This is probably because we were sophmores in high school when we broke up, lived across the street from each other, had a lot of mutual friends, and a couple classes together.  He is also one of my best friends' brother.  We rarely see each other (haven't seen him for 3 years since friend's wedding) but when we do we end up reminiscing and catching up.

  • I don't talk to any of my ex's on a regular basis, but I am on pretty good terms with just about all of them. One was bad when we first broke up, but now we don't have any issues with each other. Other than the fact that he likes to make up stories about how I want to "hang out" Confused

  • I was friendly with my college sweetheart, but since he deleted his FB account, I don't talk to him at all. 

    I don't talk to any of the others and I'm fine with that.

  • No. The guy I was seeing right before DH texted me one night while DH and I were out obviously wanting one thing. I told him I was with my boyfriend. He said he was with his girlfriend and was bored while she was asleep. What a lie!

  • Yes, a couple of years before I started dating L, I dated another guy I worked with.  I dated him my whole sophomore year and then started dating L my senior year.  The ex still worked in the same department and does still work with L today.

    We both were mature enough to realize that we were "kids" when we dated and we are adults now.  He's a great guy, just not for me!

  • Nope. The one right before Nick was bitter for a long time (probably still is) and couldn't be friends with me.

  • I don't really talk to any of them, but for most it wouldn't be weird if we ran into each other somewhere. I'm still FB friends with most. All good guys, just not for me and vice versa I think. There's only one that I will never speak to again, and that's mostly cause he's not safe. Stalker and all. I'm sure he's changed, but I don't want to open that door again.

  • I didn't date much.  That being said, there is only one that I don't think I could be friends with.   We went through way too much hurt to ever be friends.

  • The guy I dated right before Ben and I are friendly but do not really keep up with each other besides facebook. I did wish him happy birthday this year and when he thanked me it turned into a conversation about him getting married and me with the baby on the way.
    I heart Ben!!

  • I'm on good terms with all but one. And the only other serious relationship I had (besides this one), me and that ex are still super close. I still love him, like a brother, which is gross to think about because we lost our virginities to each other. haha, but he came to our wedding, and I will be pissed if I'm not invited to his whenever he gets hitched.
    My overly happy baby girl!
