No, its not a bad idea as long as you and your ex can agree to the terms because if either of you are still interested in the other romantically then there could be a problem. If you say that you are going to only be friends, then do just that.

If you broke up with the person or vice versa. Then you should give each other time and distance to reflect and grow from your experiences. Give yourself time to mature. Understand what went wrong and what you liked for future dating reference.
Its fine to say that you will stay friends so as long as that is the way you wish to leave things on a friendly note. So my answer to you would be that it is not a good idea to continue as friends if you have just broken up. If you run into this person later in the future and want to continue your friedship then that will be a whole other affair.

I think you can defiantely be friends with an ex. You do have to amke sure that neither one of you still ahs feelings for the other though and that there is not residual jealousy involved. An ex can make a good friend because of how well you know each other. Sometimes they can offer insight that your girlfriends just can't.

Yes. its an aweful idea. Ive tried staying Friends with my ex's a few times, and trust me, its only made it worse - cause the dude will almost always either try and take advantage of your friendship or take you for a ride. Its best to move on and forget them totally..

no and for a very simple reason. you had to be friends first before you wed and if you have children its really best for them. children always get the bad end of the stick when their parents divorce.i would find anything to stays friends with your ex hubby.remember you both loved each other at some point in your lives

i wouldnt say it s a bad idea..i do know from many experiences it does make it harder to have closure at first but i would say after that point..after closure..go for it..you obviously have developed a tight relationship with this person how can you be expected to just wipe him off your friends list..sometimes x's are the best of friends at the end..they know you and can tell you things you need to hear..i love my ex's still..but only as friends..i guess to make this answer 10 x shorter what im trying to say is after you reach the closure of a relationship..i think friends with an x is almost impossible to resist..:) good luck!

Depends on how serious you were and the reasons behind why the relationship ended. Sometimes you can stay friends with your ex, but usually, you will find it easier just to move on.

No, I dont think it is. If you go into another relationship and you are all close friends then yeah it may get to be a bad idea. But if you can all be mature about it than I see nothing wrong with it

No, but is it friends with benefits? You have to be able to decipher the two. In this world, you should have friends that you are close to and can absolutely trust. Maybe you can find out why you truly became ex's in the beginning.
