The reason I'm asking: My best friend's cousin is now hooking up with/possibly going to date my best friend's ex-boyfriend. My friend is really upset (mostly because they tried to hide it and weren't up front with her about it).
Generally, I vote no. But I have gotten permission to date a friends ex (they hadn't been serious, at all).

Only if that friend or family member is deceased. How could you hurt another by doing that?
kissmedeeply: If i love and respect my friend i wouldnt do that I meant if my friend acted that way, and he came to inform me about that 2 way street..
Wouldn't make any difference to me, if they're happy, have at it.
The only person I'd ever ask permission from is the lady's father, and that would only be if it was for her hand in marriage....like that'll ever happen.
In response to: It's ok with me. But I think sometimes the "friends or family" might not like it.
Good one!
Me, I think you should just ... you know ..... Like, why hide it, just get satisfied and destroy people. If they can't deal with your libido or weaknesses, screw 'em.
It is never acceptable to date a friend's or family members's ex in my opinion. Family and friends come before all others. I wouldn't ask and wouldn't want anybody to even ask me. Even if you friend or family gives their okay, it is probably because they are who they are and not because they are in agreement with it.

I don't think there is anything wrong with it but for me, dating a friend's or family member's ex would make me uncomfortable on family/friends gatherings.
