Usually when this happens it's b/c both of you are keeping each other in close range just incase you get lonely and others don't work out. That's how a lot of "Friends With Benefits" get started. I think it's better to make a clean break and go on with your life. It leads to trouble later especially when either of you get in to a serious relationship.

It may not be common, but yes...it's totally normal. It just means you're both mature enough and are of strong enough character to realize that there is more to life than romantic relationships and that, just because a relationship doesn't work out doesn't mean you can't still like each other. Good for you both !! Don't let anyone tell you it's bad or weird.

Is it normal? Probably not the usual thing. Is it a good thing? Yes, definitely. It is wonderful that even if your relationship didn't work out that you two could still be friends. I wish more people could be like that, the world would be filled with a lot less angst.
Well Done!

it is not normal, but morally acceptible. it is not normal because the majority of people when they break up tend to alienate the person they broke up with. but in the unnatural event you stay friends, it is found to be unique and far from normal. but if you find that this does not present a problem, and if your ex feels the same way, then to hell with what others think! be true to thyself!

Me and my ex just broke up recently and we are trying to stay friends but make sure your feelings don't get mixed up, for example her seeing another guy and you being jealous. If that might happen then it might not be a good idea. Good luck!

Sometimes being just good friend's and not being tied up to each other will give you the space you want. Who knows it just might lead to a more happy relationship. Give each other the chance to enjoy each other's company without commitments and find out if you can still be meant for each other.

Yes that is normal. Some would say no...but it is better to end a realtionship on good terms rather than bad. Look at it like this.....would you rather still be fighting to be civilled about the whole thing? Think about it. You are real lucky. Good luck!!!

yea..as a matter of fact that's better than normal that's wonderful..most couples would be fighting about whatever the reason is you broke up or just avoiding each other but i think its great that you took the mature road and didn't let it ruin a good friendship :)

It isn't not normal. Sure most people don't like each other after a break up, but it is good that you still are friends.

Personally i dont think its normal. I'm friends with most of my ex's and most people think i'm wierd. I think its a good thing because yo ushared so much with that person that they shouldn't just drop off the end of the earth. So just do it, you were with them for a reason.
