Is it bad to have an interest in your ex's friend?


Question Posted Friday June 15 2012, 11:52 am

I am really not sure of their friendship I mean we hung out and stuff but I've only dated my ex for 2-3 weeks so it's not like I know my ex well enough to figure out who his best friend is...

All I know is they play football sometimes, go out to eat... and yeah... friend from high school...

Oh by the way I am 21/f...

Eh it's fine. If anything, your ex and his friend that's pursing you will have a chat about it. You aren't in high school anymore! It's okay. I would wait it out for a while longer than usual and if it goes well, then let the pursuit begin, if it's still just "whatever" then don't push it.

I would just take it easier in this "talking" phase. But your ex is an ex for a reason, so don't give him too much credit!

I really don't think you owe your ex anything. He is your ex for a reason, after all.

However, if you are interested in dating your ex's friend, it's probably a good idea to consider how you would feel if a friend of yours dated him. If that would bother you, it will probably bother him as well. Be sure to discuss it with your potential suitor as well. If a relationship was to evolve, would it be awkward for the parties involved? Is it worth going through?

Just some things to think about.

Hey there, hmm well personally I don't see a problem with liking your exs friend. It's not like you guys went out for years. It really shouldnt be a problem. If its weird for him thats something he would have to take up with the friend as you shouldnt be made feel bad seeing as you guys are not going out anymore. So if you like him go for it in my opinion. Much <3 Jess 18/f
