    depends on how u break up & if u guys h botwant to or not....

    it might sound weird but
    me and one of my ex talk to each other almost everyday (chat/phone) and hang out quite often lately...

    it used to be different cuz i still liked him after we broke up...but since a while ago we hang out again
    & we are closer again....
    we can discuss anything cuz weve known eachother for such a long time
    he has a new girl & i give him advise etc :p

    we r only friends now though... we broke up almost 6 yrs ago....and we dont like each other anymore

    depends on the person
    usually we say just be friends, but we end up drifting apart anyways and only talking once in a while

    ye it all depends on the person. if its one of those relationships where u find out that ur just not right for each other and its not gonna work, they i prob be friends with them. but if it was cos they cheated on me or there was a massive argument and i couldn't stand them anymore then i prob wouldn't be friends with them.

    I agree, it depends how you guys broke up and stuff.
    You wouldn't wanna be friends with an ex who cheated on you or something. o_O

    I don't think I would be friends with my ex's only because something did went wrong in the first place. I'm actually not friends with any of them except for one I dated in grade 8 and that was even nothing. I think its just the fact that I put so much effort and they take me for granted! and the weird thing is, they all wanted me back, but i wouldn't settle for all that trouble again. Of course I was sad, but once you find someone you truly love, and they love you back, its sooo much worth it in the end. =D

    yeaahhh i agree

    it totally depends on how you break up
    if u break up mutually because you both realize it's not working then it's easy to keep being friends
    im still friends with my ex bfs.. except ONE who cheated on me.. so he doesnt deserve me as a friend :p

    some people do and some people don't. I just think of them as normal friends, but the ex's that cheat on you or tell lies that you broke it off, when you know that well she did. welll you got to think about that. I would be friends with my ex's, haha you might be more open to her than other people and you can talk to them when you need someone to listen.

    oh of course!!!
    but first (in my experiances) there will be a gap of not talking to each other, to let emotions cool and settle

    i think its a good idea to be bf with your ex. cuz he/she must be (for some cases maybe not) one of those who knows you pretty well, or else, why would you go out with him.
    however, sometimes, things happened, and it just doesnt turn out the way you want it to be.

    well that's an iffy question. To be honest, I wouldn't want to be friends with an ex. It's possible but it's also very difficult in the very beginning. Arising tensions and anger perhaps from just breaking up? And also the possibility that your heart my waiver and want to get back again? It's all very likely and you just end up at step one possibly. Getting back with an ex tends to not be possible in my opinion.

    yeah it's really hard especially if one of you still have feeelings..just so hard to be friends.

    even worst when they ask for a casual sex relationship...instead of just being regular friends.

    well...
    in my situation...
    we both decided to end the relationship coz we're just not meant to be together.

    but yeahh... he was the one who helped me "come over" him...
    to forget of seeing him as boyfriend...
