DazzleYou: Truth be told, I would rather see my ex eviscerated.
I understand with the ex-wife. But what about ex-girlfriends?

That's just a friend with benefits. Not exactly what I was talking about....

I am on good terms with my ex...you have to be anyway when there are children...but it wasn't difficult.

I guess in some instances you have to be. And I was for a while. But when you see your child going without because he'd rather buy a case of beer than a necessity for his child, & he never calls just to see how she's doing, I don't think a friendship between the parents is warranted.

I am still friends with both of my ex's one being the mother of my daughter. I'd never give them another chance in my life again, because both were pretty scanless, so being that it not me their screwing over now and lying too, we get along fine as friends...

But I was actually speaking more of being friends with ex-boy/girlfriends.

sweetowen: Have you remained friends with your exes?
I like to remain friends because I figure that even though things may not have worked out in the relationship, a lot of times they can make great friends!

To me - I don't think it is possible.
If we are friends, we don't have to go separate ways, hence the relationship would never really end.
If not romantic than casual for sure wouldn't, I think.
I am not enemies with either two of them. I just made a point not to socialize as real friends would. Clean cut works best.

I am on good terms with all ex girlfriends. Really I am easy going, but once she cheated, that was it for me.

Tamarin: I have remained friends with ex boyfriends but can not at the present be in the same room as my ex by myself. Maybe one day the fear I have will subside....
Tamarin, I'm sorry to hear that you've had a husband like this. Nobody should suffer through that, but sadly too many do.

I understand what you're saying. But sometimes the situation just doesn't work out, no matter how badly you both want it to. And it may not mean that you don't deeply care for one another. Sometimes, it's not easy being friends at first because stronger feelings may get in the way. But eventually, they subside & you can move onto a different type of relationship.

Good terms is not friendship, DazzleYou.
Being civilized to each other and being friends is not the same.

mylifewithu: I know me too I meant that I wouldn't be friends with him but that I would run.
Lela, you know you have my sympathy for what you've been through with him, and my respect for the strength you showed after leaving him. I respect anyone who has had the strength to get out of an abusive relationship. I haven't been in a physically abusive marriage, but have been in two that were emotionally and psychologically abusive, and I know it takes a lot to get out of any abusive relationship.

No, Owen, so far I've not remained friends with any of my exes. If he would allow us to have this relationship, I would be friends still with the father of my sons, though...but he has never been able to forgive me for getting out from under his thumb, and still does his best to hurt and control me through the boys. Thankfully, the older they get, the less this works, and in 5 years it will be over.

Yes, physically abusive relationships are tough to get out of, but not impossible. I commend any woman who can pull together the strength to leave. I also left a physically abusive marriage & never looked back.

Hello Dru, thankyou. Mine wasn't so physical, but He was moving into that area, it's why it was time to go. One good hit and I was outta there.------ This thread is Archived ------

I guess it's possible, Sweet.
It's just that it wasn't the case neither with my ex-husbad, nor with my ex-b/f of 7 years.
I would think it might happen when the relationship was short-lived -
people gave it their best try but
...alas, no romantic interest... friendship is the best we can do(??).------ This thread is Archived ------

I've remained friends with my ex-boyfriends, but not with my ex-husband... although I did give it a try.
