who cares we are no longer together and he is my EX but as for my friend I would rethink our relationship because she may have wanted him long time ago--leave the past in the past and do what you have to do for you and take care of you let that go

NO, don't be friends with the ex. ESPECIALLY if he's being an a*ss

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.

You don't want your friend to fornicate with your ex, that's understandable, but you're no longer with him so they're gonna do whatever they want. It bothers you because either you're jealous, concerned because you don't want him messing with her heart (if he's the reason you guys broke up), annoyed that she's going for him even though she's well within her rights, or you still got feelings for him. Or maybe you're into your friend? Whatever, get over it, he's not your problem anymore, right?

IT is apparent that he is not your friend at all if he is dating your exgirlfriend.  Just lose them both!!!

Honesty is the best policy however sometimes it's needed. This theory could be used in an incident that happened to my friend. Here it goes. She hooked up with a friends ex boyfriend shortly after they broke up. A year later after that guy died in a terrible accident a mutual friend told her that they hooked up. That was something that would have been better left unsaid!

I don't wanna be too judgemental, but I'd never do something like that. However, it all depends on you and on the person you wanna date. And, of course, it also depends on your friends feelings, but, in any case it can be extremely difficult for all people involved. So, in my opinion, it is much easier to stay away from ur bestfriend's ex and not complicate ur life.

He talks to his ex and hides it because he likes her. You are serving as a filler in his relationship gap.

I have to agree with springo 88, it is an unwritten rule in life that if you want to date a friends ex, you don't!! and if you are serious about it, you must tell your friend everything and ask if it is okay to seek a relationship with their ex, and If they say they would be uncomfortable with that situation..then you better respect their wishes and find someone else or you have no right to call yourself anybody's friend!!! boyfriends and girlfriends will come and go but you should be loyal to your real friends and find someone who will not cause any tension between you and your friend..best of luck to you !!

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.........

My b-friend and his ex talked the whole first year him and I were together.  She too broke up with him and I knew she really hurt him.  It drove me crazy too.  1)  I had to decide if I trusted my b-friend or not.  If I didn't trust him then I shouldn't b with him.  \n2) If the two of them ended up together then him and I weren't meant to be.  \nWe've been together for a little over a year, the ex has faded quickly.  Just hang in there, she's an ex for a reason.

What a mess!  Tell your friend, she deserves to know.If you talked about your ex around your friend. She'll know to drop him, because she'll know what kind of guy he is. You won't lose a friend, but she'll need you to be there.

If my mate kept contact with his ex-girlfriend it whether or not it would bother me depends on what type of friendship they had and what reason were they keeping in contact for. If he was honest with me and told me they were now just friends and that he valued her opinion in many things no, it would not bother me. It would also be okay if he told me they were to have lunch together once in a while, as long as he took me along with them or even if he was just honest without taking me along I wouldn't be upset. But if he calls her sneakily and tries to lie to me about the type of relationship that they have together and tries to sneak around just to be with her, than yes that would bother me.\n\nJealousy comes from insecurity, which is why I try my best not to overreact or make myself appear jealous when there is nothing to be jealous over. A male and a female can have a strictly platonic relationship as long as he/she agree to do so in those terms.\n\nI broke up with my ex almost three years ago and we still keep in touch. Even if he were to fall in love and marry someone else I would still want to know and still want to be a part of his life likewise with him, because we means so much to each other.

Depends on what he is talking about.  Have *you* talked to *him*?  Or is this a big secretfest - he hides the fact he is talking to his ex; you hide the fact you  know.  Neither is healthy.  Be open and honest with each other immediately.  Things hidden fester and grow into something ugly.

well for one you never want to bring up anything about an ex cause then they will think that you are still in love with them and it will put a dapper on things and you never tell a date on the first date that you love them and you should just talk about the things you two like to do to learn more about one another

I wouldn't judge you for it, but I don't think I could personally do that to my friend, especially not a few weeks after they broke up.  But thats me and my friend, it depends on how your friend feels about it etc.  Don't beat yourself up over it though, perhaps talk to your friend about it.
