can you date you friends ex boyfriend?
112675
If this person is truly your friend, you will stay far, far away from her ex. Even if she tells you that she doesn't mind if you date him, stay away! Friends make sacrifices for each other. Are willing to lose a friend just to date someone who you'll probably break up with in a month?

Most people I've spoken to believe that dating a friend's ex is off limits. Others feel that it is acceptable, as long as you clear it with your friend before anything happens. Even so, it is almost always a problematic situation. If you are really interested, you should certainly feel free to discuss it with your friend. and thats wat ur friend didn't do,she shud have discussed it with u.but anways,u need not worry coz she will b regretting what she did soon.........

out of respect don't mess with a friends ex unless u talk to him first off and see how he feels about it...if hes cool with it go for it but if hes not comfortable with the whole idea then if u really consider him a friend u will respect that.

It's totally cool to have your ex has a friend.  Just because two people aren't right for each other romantically doesn't mean they shouldn't be friends.  Those who don't comprehend it too bad for them, you and your ex are extremely lucky and rare so don't change a thing.

Whatever you do dont break the unspoken rule which is dont date your friends exboyfriends. Let it go if its a really good friend if not then wait til they break up. What I mean is dont worry so much about it, if it happens then it does if not then oh well. Date whom ever you'd like for now and if it were to work out that you were single at the same time only then pursue it if it wasnt a good friend.

Why bother? You have lots of friends. This will just be a "complicated friend."  \n\nLife's tough enough. \n\nFriendly is fine (when you run into him on the street Hello/how are you?/nice seeing you/goodbye). But friends? Too complicated with an ex.

Go for it. Your ex should not have any say over who you date. That's why it's called "ex."

Definitely HERS.  Your ex is just that - your EX.  He no longer has any responsibility to you and doesn't have to answer to you (even though he should no better).  But your "friend" should DEFINITELY know better.  That is just something you DO NOT do to your friends.  She should have come to you and explained the situation and told you that she really likes this guy and asked you if it would bother you if she dated him.  Instead, she snuck around behind your back like a coward.  That is not friend, honey.  Get rid of both of them.\n\nAs for kicking someone's ass - it's so not worth it.

He's your ex, none of your business.  Being friends after relationship is hard enuff without adding something like this to it.  Just stay out of it and let him learn on his own.

Well, depending on whether you're still friends with your ex-bf. If he's someone you wouldn't like to hurt, I wouldn't touch his friend quite yet ^_-

Don't do it!\n\nFriends are really important. Dating their exes is not a good idea because it can make things really strange between you. (been there...it's really not nice) and it can be really awkward if you bring him along to something where your friend is too.

I would go out. I had a serious boyfriend for 3 years from ages 16-19. I was really happy but I felt the same way. I took the leap to go out and I'm glad I did. Now, my ex and I are best friends. Even though we didn't get back together, dating other guys let me realize how much happier I am that my ex and I are just friends now. I didn't realize how much happier I could be until I had some more experience. Plus, I have overcome the fear of wondering how it is to date others. And you never know, you might date around and realize what a great guy you had. He seems like he would be willing to get back together after some time. This would let you know just how happy you are with him, and you will never wonder again.

I am very good friends with 2 of my ex-boyfriends.  We have been friends for years.  They're both great people... it just turned out that we made better friends than partners.

This one is going to be difficult, so let's see if I can help.\n\nFirst, your ex.  Now, I take it he's your ex for a reason.  Ask yourself, is there a chance for a relationship with him?  And, if there is, would things end up differently if you two got back together?  If you answered "no" to either question, then rule him out.\n\nSecond, your guy friend.  This is even trickier because if you do chose to pursue a relationship with him, it could end up being either being the best thing you ever had, or ending your friendship.  Does he feel the same about you?  If he does, then you may lose him if you don't date him.\n\nI hope this helps a bit.  Sorry I could not be more of a help.
