Some I have, some they haven't....

the bond of blood is eternal family is forever friends and lovers come and go be seeing you

a few but we really don't keep in touch that much

Nope, That bridge has been burnt

Nope

It took a very long time (15 years) to get there, but yes. According to him, I went "Medieval" on his a** and it took him that long to recover.

Me - I called it divorce.

But, we are friends today.

Its never happened to me. I dont find there is a point to it as it would only bring up memories.

rarely ever happens

I've done it before and I'm so glad I remaned friends because I didn't know at the time that he wasn't going to live much longer. We always cherished time spent together even after we moved on memories of eating meals together sharing dreams so many things we enjoyed I miss him

I’ve remained close friends with most of my ex’s.

1st hell no, 2nd we're ok

None as of yet. If anything, they've become more like acquaintances than nothing else.

seems the majority of responses indicates friendships can continue after relationship, to those majority - question -- do you consider yourself a stable person, do you consider the person who you continued the friendship with to be a stable person...the reason it is asked is because i don't think a friendship can continue if one of the person is unstable

roco

Heather says it well.

"The getting there usually takes time. In the absence of abuse, I can usually get there, if it's mutual. However, there are occasions where I think it's best to just wish each other well (or not) and go your separate ways."

Once you love someone I think that is always present in some form. How you choose to handle it? Well that's where it gets interesting.

I have two ex's. One my best friend...the other...well we are working on it...funny now that we are apart I miss my friend more than I miss my love.

I'm still friends with my ex although sometimes its a little awkward...

He's still used to sharing too many details of his life.

And I think we're both stable people... That helps. That, plus we both put our kids first and its better for them if we get along.

It all depends on how inversely perportional the bitterness is. For my now almost ex-wife, impossible. Just 2 nights ago, we had a phone call that lasted 9 minutes and 13 seconds. That was about 4 minutes and 13 seconds too long and a good reminder of why we're getting divorced. On a happy note, she finally signed the divorce papers.

I am still friends with my ex buts its really rocky right now and idk how long we will be friends for... i hope forever since he has been my bff since i was 14

I have had girls that were my friends but no ex girl friends that were.

I have remained friends with all but two of my x's. With the relationships I have had, friendship was always an important aspect of the love and trust between us.

i am best friends with my ex.....i probably couldnt find a better friend than him!
