So is she 8 years old on in eighth grade and is he 11 years old or in eleventh grade? You are feeling this way because you are jealous and insecure. As young as you seem I'd suggest getting over it, sounds like you're too young to be loving someone to bits to begin with

Within my group of friends I made a little rule for myself. Ex boyfriends are off limits. There are to many men in the world to be going after my friends ex. I wouldn't wanted it done to me so I wouldn't do it to others. I have friends that don't think as I do and have dated ex's of my other friends. At the end it was never pretty. Explain to her how you feel. Be honest, with a lil explaining she may just get where your coming from. Being that she is in the 8th grade there is a lot she doesn't know about relationships.. enlighten her

I'm guessing there's two things at work here. One is that you have some unresolved feelings for your ex. Not that you still want him, or want to go back to him. Just something you haven't quite worked out for yourself. Also, you're uncomfortable with your friend dating your ex. If she ends up happy with him you may think that somehow you messed up with him and it's all your fault. Don't worry about that. You and he were not compatible, so it's done now. If your friend is able to make it work, it's no fault of yours, it's just that she's a different person and may have been more compatible. Just enjoy your new relationship and don't stress about other people's.

I'll tell you why, because there is an unwritten law...."FRIENDS DON"T DATE FRIENDS EXES!!" Thats why, and it hurts regardless of who your with now, because it's your best friend saying it, it has nothing to do with the guy!! To consider that someone you care about(your friend) would dabble in someone you once were with, is backstabbing, and you feel betrayed by her, NOT HIM!! Tell her, doesn't she know the rule? Good luck, if she sleeps with your exes she's not a real friend!!!! I have five girlfriends we've known eachother for 15 yrs. at least, and none of us have been with eachothers exes!!! You just don't do it!!!!!

It's natural to feel uneasy about the situation. Most people say friends shouldn't date another friends ex. But, it's an ex for a reason.......your done with him. Let your friend date him, age has nothing to do with the situation. I married my ex's friend, and I have learned from my mistakes. Let them do the same.

i've not been a teenager for a while now but my friends and i have came up with a way to fix the same problem. it's rather simple. we agree not to have anything to do with each others ex's. it works out pretty well.
