is anyone still friends with exes?

Hey everyone, Just out of curiosity, is anyone still friends with their exes? Do you think its ok for someone to friendly with an ex?

I believe it's important to know yourself and the reasoning behind the why you still wish to keep contact with your ex. Although I'm perfectly fine my girlfriend keeps contact with her exes, I understand most partners probably don't share the same opinion about this.

Fear is of course the dominant factor why they wouldn't like it.

Don't get me wrong, don't wish to sound sarcastic either, but to hit a wall face first once in a while is bliss. Once one has learned and mastered how to deal with pain and grief because of cheating, one will eventually free him/herself from that suffering.

Most individuals cling so hard to the illusion of love, the moment hurt kicks in, they fall inside a pit of self-pity, one so deep it takes them months, even years to crawl out again, more scared than ever before, never to engage in a new relationship again.

Many women end up on the sofa watching soaps with a dog at their feet, this while eating out of a big bucket of ice cream.

Men mostly become drunks or worse, that social plague which troubles societies.

Self-pity can be overcome, but most rather remain in this role just to remain unavailable for love.

The thing is, everyone you know has had their share or will encounter the hurt which comes along when becoming an addict, a love addict is the worst person one can attract or start a relationship with. They cling so hard until they suffocate their partner throughout various forms of abuse, the biggest of them being jalousie and mistrust.

If you know you are a jealous type or carry little trust in your partner, it simply means your an addict. The degree in which you are addicted will eventually manifest itself by the depth of that pit you are digging for yourself.

Individuals who are jealous and filled with mistrust, regardless if they show it or talk about it, are more likely to cheat than those who aren't. They crave and are in need of a constant flow of affirmation that there thoughts are not what they are, they are on a continuous quest to prove to themselves to be wrong, checking the phone of their partner is just one fine example.

BlackBerry Rules, lol.

In many scenarios to have a partner which cheats is mostly something which is self-inflicted because of one's obsessive behaviour. Anyone who acts like an emotional vampire within a relationship will eventually run out of emotional blood or energy.

The only mayor threat an ex could represent is a sexual one, so to use common sense is key when keeping contact with exes, we all know upon a personal level we might not love them any longer, but to meet up with an ex who knows how to trigger your mind sexually should answer this question.

To know yourself, you will know who keep in touch with, other than that you are playing with fire.
