You and Your Friend’s Ex-Boyrfriend
I have this random thought in my head when I woke up this morning. And thought it would be interesting to discuss about it. The question is, “would you date your friend’s ex?”
We all have friends with failed relationships. Some people are highly possessive with their ex. Been there done that. But sometimes, that ex is just too tasty to resist. There’s no right or wrong answer to this question. If your answer is YES, then your problem is how to keep your friend and how to let her know. Well, lay down your hair and let your friend know right away. Your friend will react negatively about it, of course and that’s a consequence. If you think he’s worth the trouble then sure, you can date your friend’s ex. You should be aware that you will be in a messy situation. Why? Because it depends how they broke up. And part of breaking up involves another person in their relationship then you need to assess the situation. If your friend is still browsing over old photos, talking about their relationship then you should think twice. Friend or boyfriend?
If your answer is NO, then it means that you want to remain loyal to your friend. After all, there are plenty of guys out there so why share the same guy? Put yourself in your friend’s shoes. I am sure you wouldn’t want to share your ex to your friend. It will be awkward for her to see you with her ex. If you’re not ready to face a complicated situation then might as well let this guy go and save the friendship. Consider what your friend would feel seeing both of you together and happy with your relationship. But then again, the decision depends on the situation. Remain honest and loyal to your friend. Always think the consequences before you do anything or utter the words. Remember, friendship is also a relationship. You invest on it.
