DO NOT DO IT!! that's like a rule between us girls. You don't date your friends ex-boyfriends. It's just not right. Your friendship won't be the same. How awkward would that be ya kno? If you want to keep your friendship, don't do it. Your friend won't look at you the same, trust me. She may act like she won't care, but deep down inside she will, and she'll be tellin everyone else about how you are some hoe or somethin goin out with her ex.

Your best friend is probably still sensitive about the whole break up, so outright telling her how you feel might not be the best solution. Still, you don't want to go behind her back and go with her ex. This situation should be handled with caution. First, talk to her and ask her if she still has feelings for her ex. If she does, it might not be a good idea to carry on a relationship with him. Sometimes couples need time to start over, and if you interfere, it might lead to the end of your friendship. If she makes it clear that she doesn't have feelings for her ex. and does not plan to start the relationship over, then it would be okay to tell her how you feel. Listen for her feedback and advice that she gives you about your soon to be boyfriend. Try not to make her feel left out, and let her know that you are concerned about how she feels. Now you can have your cake and eat it too.

You are breaking the #1 rule in the girlfriends honor of rules!
NEVER EVER EVER go out with a friends ex boyfriend.
You are putting boys before your friendship. Boys come and go but friends last forever. If go out with this boy, you will lose the friendship and trust of other friends.
Just because she broke up with him doesnt give you any rights to him. Of course she still has feelings for him and you will hurt her alot. Is this boy worth it to you?
Don't do it.

If you are even considering your best friend's ex, your not a good friend. Your "Best Friend's" ex shouldn't even cross your mind. In a good friendship that is considered forbidden territory. You should love and Cherish your friendship, and if you are serious you should probably consider telling your best friend how trifling you are so she could find a better friend than you. I would never do something like that to my best friend. A good friendship is sacred these days all because of people like you. How about referring to your friend as your associate because your not a good best friend.

If you step on that ground, be prepared for war. Talk it over with her first. If you go behind her back & she finds out from someone else, she's gonna be pissed. Just try. Sneaking around shows you can't be trusted & she'll be mad. Atleast if you go to her first, you have a chance. She'll probably still be mad, but relieved that you would come to her first. Either way there's going to be an awful lot of animosity going on for a while. Really think about what's important.

Are you even sure that is your best friend? because if it was why would you think of doing that? She broke up with him for a reason, you think it will be different because it is you and not her?
There is no other man in the world, you just have to have him?

You need to talk to your best friend and ask her if she is ok with you dating her ex and if she is then go for it and if she isnt then you should wait a little longer before doing anything

no, no, no, no!!!! Off limits, Sweet Pea...this is your BEST friend and if you want to keep her as your friend, keep your hands off her ex. That's the code of dating with women....hands off the ex's, never flirt with their current boyfriends or you'll be finding yourself a new friend...and if others get wind of what you did, you'll find it very difficult to get new friends. It's taboo!
