Who'se ex - yours or your current boy-friend? I would say a definite NO to either now I think about it. How can you possibly talk to them without wondering what they are doing or who they did it with? Not a good basis for friendship.
Well I hope it goes without saying that your explanation wasn't one that made me laugh. Although I'm not sure why you'd want to be friends with someone like that.
friends No! not at all Evian, but 24 + years have passed and I am 'polite' to him for 'our ' daughters sake, the last time I saw him was 16 yrs ago when he gave her away at her wedding, I was able to hold my head high on the arm of my new husband, look very happy as I did, so that was good enough for me :-)
I most certainly have now Evian, he has been married and divorced again, I am the type of person who wont waste energy hating anyone or wanting revenge, it's not in my nature so I am happy to move forward and not to look back :-)
I'll just throw a spanner in the works! it's never worked for me. relationships usually end and one person is more hurt than the other, and there is no room for friendship after that.
I tolerate the ex-husband for the kids' sakes. I have a couple of short-term exes on my FB friends list (who's gone to look??!) but I rarely see them in the real world now.
That's a good point Sara. I've a few ex's from short term things on facebook but I very rarely speak to them, maybe just to wish a happy birthday and can't say I ever think about them. They're just sort of there.
aah the problem here is you're thinking so much about it, there's obviously some emotional attachment there, so I'd say not now, no.
That whole 'meeting up just as friends' usually means a bit more, and I can imagine especially after only a couple of months, I reckon you're best off swerving it!
