Can you be friends with an ex-boyfriend?

Answer by  aussiebev (89)

It depends on how or why the relationship was ended. If there was any tension or hostility or ill feelings, then it is best to perhaps just end the relationship in the best interest of both parties. If you are both open to being friends and can maintain boundaries of just friends, then yes the friendship can remain.

I believe that if you develop a friendship with your boyfriend prior to becoming intimate, that anything is possible. From my experience, being friends first has always worked well for me.

Yes it is possible to be friends with your ex-boyfriend. The only way this really works is if both people no longer have romantic feelings for each other. It might take some time but it could work.

Yes it is possible. You should be very considerate of the feelings of any future significant-other that you may have, as for them this may be a tough issue
