My ex finished with me as she just fell out of love with me, I tried to kill myself, fortunately I didn't succeed.

We now see each other about 4 times a week, we are just mates, and I am happy again

...tried to be friends with the ex...didn't work...moving on, making new friends....much more exciting....

in thought it would be way easier than it is too be mates with an ex. I think it is just about impossible if one of you still has feelings for the other... especially if the feelings are not returned. then it can prove just about impossible ..well thats what i seem to be finding other ppl may be different!!

i havent seen my first ex (i've only had two serious girlfriends) since we broke up over three years ago( she lives in cork i live back in tipp now) but we keep in touch through text and e-mails, i have nothing but love and respect for her because i fully understood why she broke it off. My second ex dumped me twice (the first time she was upset over losing a friend so i understood) so i had nothing but contempt for her until recently, she admitted to still having feelings for me. We're semi-back together, my plan was to have my fun and leave for a bit orf revenge but some feelings have awoken again. Am i setting myself up for a fall or am i right?

if u loved ur ex then there is no chane of ever beeing friends dont matter how it finished. if u spit with ur ex tat u hadnt been out with for long and i both didnt actually love each other then yes it is possible to be friends. x

u can b mates with ppl u once loved, but only if it was a nice break up (as they go!) im friends with some of my x's, only friends with 1 guy who i really loved, but its still nice hanging out with him.

Me and my partner of 6 years recently split. We had a rough couple of years which apparently drove her away from me, and over the last 6 months she ended up falling in love with her best friend. We have 3 children together. She really messed me up as she wouldn't choose between us, so I made the choice and left the family home, hardest thing I have ever done and pray I don't have to go through it again. Thing is we are still meeting regularly for sex, and she is with the other man. I dunno, i'm still holding out for them to not work out and she say's there's nothing in it for her, we've always had great sex (she says our relationship was built on it) and so she's cool with it. Either way we'll always be friends, even though she hurt me so much, we went through so much and she means the world to me, plus she's the mother of my children...

I don't envy you man, I wish you luck though. Just hope she isnt taking advantage of your good nature.
