A lot of my friends generally would never continue a relationship with their exs after they breakup, and I really don't agree with that stance. There was obviously a connection prior to dating, and there would be no reason for me to discontinue all contact with him after we breakup. I guess I don't understand the fact that there's a point of no return, but still.

Are you friends with your ex-boyfriends and/or ex-girlfriends? Do you stop all contact with them after you breakup? Does it depend on the circumstances of the breakup? Why or why not?

No. Its hard for me tbh My feelings keep coming back Its better that we separate ways after we broke up

I don't think i could ever have any type of relationship with my last ex.

Just the thought of hanging around with him and his new boyfriend irritates me. No thanks.

There's nothing wrong with double dipping.

I'm friends with my exs.
We always end up f*cking once in a while but it's all good.

This.

I'm friends with my ex. Hell she became a lesbian after and I, bi. And we get on well

Ex #1 - We still work together but we have a mutual hate for each other. Needless to say, we don't have a friendship.

Ex #2 - We don't talk anymore, but I wish we did. He'll text me for my birthday, but that's it.

Ex #3 - We still really good friends. We saw Carrie Underwood earlier this month together and we're seeing Pink together in the spring.

Wow, strange that this thread turns up when my ex from 4 years ago just texted me to drop off some of my clothes. We were friends for awhile after but he f-ed it up and keeps being flirty with me, ew.

It's nearly impossible to maintain a decent friendship with an ex! I'm still on speaking terms with most of my exes, and I'm friends with a few on Facebook, but we rarely ever talk. It's pretty awkward. I always like to remain friends when it ends, but it never works out like that.

My ex and I are best friends, though.

It's hard for me.

I know, girl. I know.

No I could never. If you could get on well after you broke up, you probably were never in love

I'm good friends with pretty much all of my exes.

No, bitch can go die in a ****ing fire.

No, we ended our relationship, so I certainly don't want a relationship with him/her as a friend.

This.

But at times it does feel a bit awkward. Especially when you see them dating someone else.
