I can stay as friends wit my ex as long as she is not doing any thing that will affect my new relationship, and even at that, i will never have any close association wit her, i will only relate wit her based on universal basis. All that is to prove to her that opposite of love is not hatred. And everything must be done wit great understand. |

An Ex- already knows ur romantic weak spot, so it depends on how u two broke up in the first place. Yeah, u can remain friends with a non-possessive Ex-, the possessive ones are the problem though. Another problem presents itself when u feel the need to always meet ur Ex- face to face, its then u know its getting out of hand, and a stop needs to be put to it. |

Aim in touch with most of my Ex's via BB, Skype, phone calls, the net, etc. One common thread that runs through all these chats is that they want us to get down to phocking again. It's probably safest to keep them at arms length except you want to comply with Okafor's law. |

People that are friends with their ex are those that were not truly in love or those that had nothing to lose or those that didnt share intimacy. We all know how vulnerable we are and if seeing our ex will ignite special memories that could make us have a (stupid) rethink then i think we had better stay away. |

Re: Can You Stay Friends With Your Ex? by 76Naira(m): 11:40am On Sep 15, 2012 |
yes. Just not too close. Not because of feelings but rather because the little space helps the new people in the relationship. |

We all know how vulnerable we are and if seeing our ex will ignite special memories that could make us have a (stupid) rethink then i think we had better stay away. Is this based on some research work? You really sound absolutely sure. I know you are wrong from my perspective. I feel you need to be far off if you are not sure of your feelings. If you are focused and decided, a little friendship would not influence you. Being able to stay away depends on how close your relationship was as well as on how many common relationships and friends both of you shared. Don't assume. |

Duke_Nija: People have different reasons for ending their love relationships, and these reasons ultimately determine the level of communication or friendship between both parties. SummerT: it must b ascertained based on d platform(i.e eda disgusting or fairplay) at wc u ended ur relatnship. Exponental: It all depends on u n hw d relationship ended. ogugua88: It's circumstantial as it depends on how/why we broke up in the first place. You are the only persons that got it right! Others, who have commented so far, were talking either RUBBISH, or something not far from it! Whether you would remain friends with your ex should depend on how and what caused the breakup/separation. |

Kologie: @op I think your friend is right to an extent. Getting too close to your ex can actually whip up old feelings regardless of how high you try to raise your guard. If you are in a new relationship( especially if you are now married) the best bet is to cut off completely and set new rules of engagement. yap! |
Re: Can You Stay Friends With Your Ex? by Leobreezy(m): 12:12pm On Sep 15, 2012 |
Its like being in touch with a person who kidnapped you. You broke up for a reason, so stand by it. Being friends with an ex is definitely going to reignite old feelings whether you like it or not, and that can complicate things especially if u're already in another relationship. There's nothing wrong with being acquintances(acknowledging that they still exist by exchanging pleasantries), but anything beyond that is at your own risk. 1 Like |

You can't consider someone as your ex-lover when you still have feelings for them because, he/she is still the one you love. Ex means former, so before you classify someone as that, then all emotions and desires you had for that person must have effaced into oblivion. |

Most girls like to still have a part of their ex. They are like a" di_ck in a jar" for them, break in case of an emergency. And the emergency can range from the boyfriend don't doing it right to the guy not putting the toilet seat down. |

The guys I have dated are my friends because we didn't get into a serious relationship....I don't believe in exclusive dating/relationship unless I am engaged to the person. I think in my opinion...it is easier to be friends with an ex that you were platonic with than exes you were sexual with. JMO. |
