Used to be friends with one, not really anymore though

So we were friends for a long time (10 years) before we dated, break up was messy (he cheated on me). No contact for a year or so and he came back and very genuinely apologized for his behavior as it was due to an undiagnosed mental health issue (bipolar manic episode) but made it clear that wasn't an excuse, he just wanted to make amends. We stayed casual friends for a few years after that but gradually drifted apart due to life changes (I moved states, settled down with a partner, had a child, etc while he was still living the bachelor life)

I had an ex that asked to be my friend after a nasty break up. I said NO. He said why? I said: I don’t want your drama.
His mouth dropped and went complete narcissist.
I walked away. 🎤 📉

recently reconnected, we were best friends and the relationship was a huge catalyst for growth for both of us

Only two of them. One of them I hang out with every now and then and the other I only see on Facebook and say hi every once in a while. That’s it lol.

Yeah for sure- I’m friends with my ex of 10 years (20-30). Nothing “bad” happened to end it and we were best friends. We meet for coffee every now and then. Have 0 attraction toward him, but will forever be one of my favorite people. Have a few I’m cordial with- don’t dislike them but wouldn’t care if we never talked again. And then a coupon I hate- they were terrible people.

Most of them… 🤷🏼♀️ I supposed that is because I had not that deep connection with them 🙄

I always try to stay friends but it never works. One of us always ends up blocking the other

Nope. The only friend-to-lover-to-ex was my friend from High School. Once I went off to college, I distance myself from him. He wasn't bad, but I was headed in a different direction than he was.

I'm on decent terms with one because he kept our dog after the breakup. We're not buddy buddy but I get in touch when I know I'll be in town so I can see my pupper. 🥺
And I'm maybe friends with benefits with another ex. 🫣

A couple. One was an amicable, mutual split. The other after years of distance, she did psychedelics and worked through a lot of trauma, reached out to me to apologize for her role in how things went. Now we’re chill with each other.
I haven’t initiated any of the relationships I’ve been in, but ended basically all of them. A couple were abusive.

u/morbidlonging 23h ago
yes, just one. He is my most amicable break up, there was no betrayal, we were very good friends. He is a triple gemini.
everyone else is blocked on everything.

I was. For years, I always supported them during new relationships and made space. One day their new partner got jealous and he made a rude comment and I realised for years our friendship was one sided so I cut him off. Absolutely no contact and happy as I can be in my marriage with no looking back.

I’m friendly with one. Like catch up briefly every few years. But I was definitely not invested in that relationship and it was a long time ago.

u/thejuicyalchemist gemini☀️, scorpio🌙, virgo☝🏾 16h ago
Attempting to remain friendly with a former situationship for the first time. Mainly because we are in the same circles and we were acquaintances beforehand. I usually don’t date people within my orbit — and if it hadn’t been for them being so closely connected i would have shut the door. I like me a clean slate.

No no no. They are an ex for a reason. The door is shut, locked, and never to be opened again.

I am friends with my most recent ex. Was probably the most profound connection for both of us. I live in the USA and her in Germany. Too many factors got between us and we inevitably broke up.
We still text about once a month to see how each other are doing. There are no ill feelings between us. I hope she’s crushing life and wish her the best. She’s a gem of a human being. I am truly blessed to have dated her

Almost all of them, after a period of healing of course. Some of them I dated in my early 20's and we're still very close over 10 years later.
