I have a great relationship with my ex boyfriend who I was with for over 3 years. He and I aren't compatable on a romantic level anymore but we get along great just being friends. Anyone else out there have a similar story?

I am friends with most of my exes. I think that it says something good about you as a person, that you can break up but still can get along with that person who maybe isn't right for you romantically but is still fun to be around.

Yes...I am still friends with both of my exes from High School. We all have our separate lives and significant others but we talk whenever we get the chance. The six of us even hang out every so often...it's great to know that my Fiancee and my best friends can have a good time together.

Yes, actually, my first girlfriend and I have been the best of friends not only before we started dating, but after as well. We each decided that we were very important to each other and that we needed to stay in each other's lives even on the level of friendship at the least, if not as more, before we dove into our relationship. We broke up more than a year ago, but we still are very close friends and each of us talks to the other about what's going on in life, keeping each other in check and questioning the questionable decisions.

yes, my ex and i have a great friendship now. i think we understand each other from both a friendship and a love point of view, and there's a level of trust with that understanding which makes for a great friendship. he's a good friend i can trust with everything, and i think it's great we've been able to get past the original break up 'trauma' to be so close as friends.

I am friends with all but one of my exes, however, I was not able to be friends with them right away, it definitely took time to develop a friendship. I always thought that just because we're not good as romantic partners doesn't mean we can't be friends. Why waste all that time and effort?

Not at all. I do not get along with my ex. He is an ex for a reason. Good for you though.

Good for you seriously. For me, I see it like, if I can't be in a romantic relationship with him, then why the heck should we be friends?

hell no! I'm not friends with any of my exes. As a matter of fact, one of my exes has an entry on his myspace blog about all of his exes and how horrible we all were and why we all dumped him... complete with pictures!
