 Can a man and woman who've had a sexual/emotional relationship ever just "be friends" after all that?
No. Too much in the way of emotional (not to mention sexual) exchange will have been made to just revert back to friends. You're better off just making a clean break. I agree |

I disagree, my BEST guy friend is an ex from about 6 years ago. We did need some time to be apart and get over why we broke up but we are BFF's now. I'm also friends with most of my ex's just not as close as I am to this one. And NO I do not hook up with or have a weird relationship with any of them. My relationships are built on friendships first so salvaging them after the fact is not as impossible as some think.

LOL nooooo they're just decent guys and it didn't work out between us. I'm very selective about who I let in my life... it rarely turns out bad but I can't control the haters.

I would not do it. One or the other maybe even both are going to end up having feelings that will mess things up. What do you do if you new mate is naturally uncomfortable about you hanging out with a past lover? Too complicated for me.

i don't think men and women can be just friends in the first place, whether you've dated or not. either party always messes it up. and before everyone jumps in with "well i have tons of guy/girl friends and we're just friends" well, congratulations, but, it's never worked for me.

I've had female friends for over 20 years that i have never slept with or had any interest! |

Can a man and woman who've had a sexual/emotional relationship ever just "be friends" after all that?
Yes and we are. It seems to be easier for women, but for men it depends on what he really wants in life and if he has any character. It also helps if you actually like the other person. If you don't respect them, question the motive for having them around. Some guys try being friends but end up still being the same controlling bastard that they were in the relationship, while some women will have a former boyfriend around as a 'friend' as an option or fallback to go to when they are lonely. For friends after sexual/emotional relationships to work, the two have to have some kind of reason to know each other or something in common. Lacking that is probably a reason the relationship did'nt work. |

So why all the rush to have sex early on. Shouldn't you first see if you are going to have a romantic relationship or a friend relationship?
