What's up people? I have two questions for ya! Answers posted on the BLOG will be anonymous, (obviously not on FACEBOOK), but either way --- let me know your thoughts!
Is it possible to be FRIENDS with an ex? And if so, would you let your woman/man tell you otherwise?
Ultimately, how much impact should your woman/man have on who you are friends with?

VERY LITTLE....
They may have an impact 2 a certian point like if they see horrible qualities that u cant and know they would easily influence you or worse then say something but if its one of the rare gems leave em be cuz there the best
M.R.I think they should have an impact. Not enough to tell you that you can't be friends with a certain person unless they feel very strongly about it. You wouldn't want you bf/gf having a friend of the opposite sex who talk about having sex with each other....Well I definately wouldn't. And you wouldn't want your bf/gf friends making waves in the relationship when everything is good between yall. But as long as yall are doing each other right it shouldn't be a big problem.
well if thiers trust there shouldnt be any doubt in our companion
if the relationship is solid and the friends don't bring negative energy to the relationship then not much
I think it depends on the situation if my ex cheated on me i would not want to be his friend afterwards.There is a reason that person is called an ex.
yes, you both have to be completely over with each other and have moved on in order for this to work. Before the relationship started it was friendship, so as long as the boundaries never get crossed and no false expectations are there then the answer is yes.
yeah you can if they move to another state.. lol Thats not a good idea because if they get in another relationship or vice versa the new man or woman is always going to be on your back about cheating with your ex..
As long as both people understand that is over and the feelings are there than i dont see y not.
I think it might be hard if you had alot of feelings for that person and when break ups happen its hard to let go of those feelings
yes.... friends from a distance...its better when both parties have talked and moved on...sure why not be friends
I'm friends with 3 exes, because they didn't end badly. If the relationship ends badly, then no, def not.
I think it all matters on how long you have had grow apart from being in a relationship to allow ties to sever. To be friends, things have to be on understanding levels. I have to be able to let go of what was had in order to come back to a friendship with someone who may know my very well. Other wise its still gonna be lingering emotions.
Of course! But... I guess it depends upon the ground your relationship was built upon? The vast majority of my relationships have been friendship that simply escalated. (If they started out as a jump-off, then I dunno what to tell you!)
it really depends on how u ended ur relationship on good terms well yes, if not dont bother
I am so many years late to commenting on this, but I believe yes you can be friends with your ex, but maybe not all of your exs you should be friends with. I have a few exs that I keep at arms length for several reasons, then I have a few I speak with very often, several times a week.
how much influence? hmmm that's a good one! I would say whatever you and your significant other are comfortable with together. If you have a good one, I believe there will be a common ground reached. But it also depends on the kind of friends you keep. If you have unhealthy friends and your partner sees them for something you can't but should, maybe it's time to hand the friend-choosing power to the better half.
