You loved your ex and you were with them for awhile. And it's natural to want to keep tabs on them or turn to them for advice and support. But what about when you're in a new relationship? Is it okay to still have your ex in your life -- or is there no room once you're with someone new? Check out what these New Yorkers had to say.
I would not really stay friends with my ex for one and one reason only. The fact that we're not together much be that someone hurt or disappoint each other. If it was him who did the hurting I will be mad at him and I can't stay friends with someone who hurt me eventhough I respect him.
hi tyra, the way i see it. a x is a relationship that didnt work out.you can always be friends after.. I am still friends with most of my x's. Unless they dont want to be.. the only way i wouldnt be friends with them, if it was a very bad relationship where he tried to abuse me or something like that. But that has never been the case. My x's where friends first and friends still and thats the way i like it. If the new guy dont like it, well then he can be the one to move on..Some of my x's are my best friends or very good friends now.. true friends are hard to come bye. But there is always anoter man around the corner!!!
friends but in a sense that no seeing or even texting ,it's just no hard feelings at all . because ex is part of our life already,sometimes we remember everything happened in the past w/c we cherish until now..and it may lead to a come back relationship again because simply for the reason that they missed each other.It's so painful for the present gf/bf when that happens.

being in relationships are hard both ways even having your ex as a friend. It depends on being mature and dealing with the fact we all move on and can be friends. Being friends with an ex also sees how you grow together as friends and not just a bf/gf matter. It is hard at first to not be friends but exs do always come around again and realize their mistakes and know being friends is ok. Being in another relationship and having your ex as a friend is something to experience on and be a big change for yourself. It also depends on how long you guys were together and can handle being friends.
I think it's alright to be friends with your ex. As long as there is no tension between the two of you. If there is then it's probably not going to work once you begin a new relationship. Because I have a boyfriend and I am still friends with my ex boyfriend. It hasn't caused any problems at all. So i guess it really just depends on the people and their respect for one another along with their maturity level.
I am watching the Tuesday June 8,2009 show with my 11yr old daughter Haley.While we were watching Tyra made a comment about the people on the show named Sidnie,and Micheal.Tyra referred to their relationship as "The black and white,young and the restless!"My daughter Haley was very upset that she would say that,Haley said"That was something sombody who is racist would say!"I am sure she meant nothing by it however Tyra should keep "jokes" like that underwraps.Thanks guys,Ms.Tiffany Taylor
I think that if you want a serious relationship you should have boundaries for you ex's. I am in a situation where my current bf is very good to my and my 2 children from previous relationships. He has no children and claims he has been looking for the right person to settle down with. We he has 3 ex's and their families and all 3 ex's are close. He only has 2 friends, that I have met, outside of these ex's and their families. If we visit the friends or family memebers there is a possibility that one thur 3 of the ex's might show up. He picks the ex's up from the airport (with their husband) they hang out and get drinks. If one calls and says she doesn't have money to cut her kids hair he will bring them over for a weekend and cut their hair. He has mentioned having a vacation including his ex's kids. I cannot take our relationship seriously now because of all the ex's and all the other attachments to their families and their friends. I cannot enjoy his friends or going any where with him unless it is his family. Almost every friend he has is connected to related to or with his ex. Its really ridiculous. Its one thing to call and say hello and send b-day cards or holiday cards but I can even think about marrying him or building a family with him. I think its ridiculous and I'm ready to find a man without all these attachments.
I HAVE A QUESTION WHAT IS THE MEANING OF A EX LOVER DISRESPECTING YOU BY KISSING HER EX LOVER IN PHOTOS
I used to think that U should NOT stay friends w/ ur Ex. but I in fact am friends w/ like 2 of my EX and i also have talked few times w/ ex's. Like others have mentioned, it depends on the relationship you had, how it ended and how long u gave the breake up a break. In my case a few yrs had pass since i brokend up w/ the ex n now we could talk bout our past n still be cool about it give each other advise. I mean it may sound mean but if u tell ur NEW boyfriend that hes in fact ur EX and not jus a FRIEND then yes it will cause problems. But to me i no longer see them as an X but as a regular friend. so i donmt say hey hunnie this is my X, i only introduce if i have to as athis is such n such. NOW, my Babys father & I we're A recent break up and i cannot see us being cool and giving eachother advise w/o me actually feeling eitha jealousy, hate or whaeva the case may be..but mostlikely b/c of his personality & b/c we have a child 2getha i think we could dowwwnn the road be friends but AS OF YET, I DONT THINK SO!! LIKE i said it depends on the circumstances
I do not believe you should stay friends with your ex. Why? Your new boyfriend is probably not going to like that idea nor is it fair to him. I understand the need to want to be around the EX if you were with him for awhile or if you were madly in love with him. But obviously it didn't work out. Therefore you should leave him in the past and move on to your future with your new boyfriend. I believe that girls will remain friends with their Ex for that possibility that if it doesn't work out between them they can go back to the ex (subconsciously). They may not want to admit it but its true. What will end up happening is one of them will still have feelings for the other person and that can affect their current relationship.
I am going thur this right now. I dumped my ex for another,he turned out to be a jerk. My ex is kind hearted and was totally in love w/me, i blew it.Once i broke off with him and the other didn't work out i wanted my ex back... to late,he was seeing someone else.We tried to remain friends but our feelings keep getting in the way.Fact is we're still seeing each other, it sucks, because he's still w/his new girlfriend and "no" she doesn't know.It hurts like hell because i know in my heart we can't just be friends,i'm just hangin around hoping his new relationship doesn't work out.
Depending on the relationship and how both people feel HOWEVER since the question is SHOULD u stay friends with your ex and not WOULD YOU I feel ppl SHOULDN'T. I would not advise anyone to stay friends right after the breakup. Maybe over time if the relationship was realli good but it just got sour, when both people get over it sure, you can talk now and then but things will never be the same. And most likely one person is gonna still have feelings. It's always best to keep the peace in the sense you don't ever want to worry or stress about bumping into them. It's more relaxing to be cool about it and casual. However if the relationship was horrible and bad and you both never want to see eachother again...DEFINITELY LEAVE IT ALONE. ALL OR NOTHING.
for me, it is ok to b friends wid ur past but u have to make sure that it will stay that way,, so tahat we cannot hurt the person in the present,, for i have this boyfriend whom i love so much but was hurt for i cannot let go of my past and stay in contact wid my ex, but when he told me how he feels i stopped talking to my ex and start paying more attention to my boyfriend,,, but then i've recently discovered that he was having an affair with my bestfriend so i fianlly let him go too,,,
i think everyone has the right to be friends with whomever they want to, specially with someone who was a chapter in their life so, there's absolutely nothing wrong with being friends with a ex-boyfriend or girlfriend but it also depends on how the relationship ended. Anyones new partner should be mature enough to understand.
