    Yes I believe it's possible, but doesn't happen that much. However I have seen some couples that break up, but do stay as friends, just depends on how they broke up. I never stayed friends with any of my ex's =\

    I think it is possible, if bf/gf break up on good terms, they can be great/bestfriends... they understand each other better and can talk about almost anything...

    really depends on the reason of breakup i guess

    example, you cant expect to be best friends with your ex if they cheated on you vice versa.

    No, you can pretend to be bestfriends but eventually you will have feelings for each other again. My opinion though.

    Why not? I think that it's good to try to stay in good term with a person you appreciate

    hmm....so what I'm getting is that it's not possible for the guys to be friends with his ex girlfriend after breakup...

    I have a question then. i'm interested in this guy but the thing is, he's still very close to his ex? Like he takes her to and from school. his excuse is that he uses her parking pass and he'd complain about it to me. i get really irriated because who'd want to hear about his ex?? DOES THAT MEAN HE STILL HAS FEELINGS FOR HER?

    i rarely seen ex's become friends, let along best friends. When u break up, u both don't really want to see the other party as it might bring back bad memories and it depends on how the break up is. In theory, I think its possible, but in reality, u hardly see any.

    very true.
    i believe it's possible - i'm friends with my ex. but it's hard.
    because if you stay friends, you're wondering whether you guys are actually friends or if you might go back to being a couple again

    of course, if you can steer clear of AmbiguityLand then being friends with your ex (especially someone who you've been with for a while) is great! they probably know you better / differently than other friendships you make.

    If you guys do it right, draw the right lines. My ex is one of my closest friends. I think exs make some of the greatest friends cuz they know you so well.

    Yes I think its possible. But its very difficult to forget your past. I mean in some time you feel and think back what you doing before I'm a little feeling inside. Its possible but little hard to change yourself. As you know that nothing is impossible in this world.

    anything is possible rele just depends on the outcome of the break up and stuff. i mean if it was a mutual breakup whereby before realise there is no chemistry then u can very well become best friends if ur personalities are alike.
     
  20. for myself no way... i wouldn't b able to get over him even by just writing abt him in my diary... if he becomes my best fd i'd b living in enternal misery... i always cut all sorts of contact with my ex... it's more fair to my current/future bf...
