Original post by JustJodi

Still keep in touch with your ex boyfriends or any guy for that matter that you were always real close with?

Re: How Many Of You...

My college boyfriend - who decided that we weren't ready to be 'serious' after dating for 3 years - proceeded to call and ask me to break up with DH and marry him instead when he found out i got engaged!!! What a psycho!!! I put that fire out before it even had a chance to get started.

Needless to say, I stay as far away as possible from all exes !!!

This is absolutely not a trust issue, but no way would either of us KIT with an ex, the question would be for what???? to be friends? I personally feel that when any past intimate- serious relationship happens between two people and there is a history between them..usually the person who pursues contact usually has an alterier (sp?) motive, so why would me or my husband put ourselves in that situation.

And if there wasn't any motive, would I want any woman hanging around or corresponding with my husband who she knows just as intimately as I do?
H$ll no! JMO.

I agree with Lizlen...when you take out the trash he keep it out there.

I still keep in touch with some of my ex's, well one. He's also Al's friend (how we met), so he keeps in touch too.

We both had an ex at our wedding. I think there's nothing wrong with keeping in touch with someone you shared so much with. It seems a shame to lose those people actually. But I think a certain maturity is required, as well as trust and the relationship would have had to end well.

I don't keep in touch with any by calling them.
I truly despise one of them, so I wouldn't even acknowledge him if I saw him. But my other ex, that I do say hello and talk to when I see him, but we don't call each other. He even bought FH and I a drink when he saw us at a local bar to congratulate us. He's a really nice guy.

YES! My ex of 4 years and my first EVERYTHING is my best friend. He came to my wedding and was such a big part of the family. He is so special to me and I could never ever think about not having him in my life. My other ex..puppy love thing...from the 8th grade is also my friend and was also at my wedding. My husband wasnt very fond of either of these men at first but once he met them and saw how they cared about me...he liked them. I odnt hang out with them alone but I do have total contact with them and I wouldnt have it any other way.

Re: How Many Of You...


its actually kind of funny cause if you do a search on my screen name and find my wedding pics...my ex of 4 years (spanish guy) is in a picture with me from my wedding and some ladies thought it was my husband!!!!!!!!!!

That I did NOT show to my husband! But I found it kind of ironic!

For me, I have never had a bad breakup with an ex. All of my ex's are great guys and we broke up because of issues like one of us moved, we graduated college, we had different life goals, etc. I still keep in touch with my first true love who during the time I thought was going to be the person I would marry. We were great friends before we started dated and we remain great friends after the fact. For me, I think if you shared a part of your life with someone who was important to you, why erase it out of your existance? It takes a mature person, IMO to be able to sit back and realize, ok, he was not the one for me to be with forever, but there was something about him that was right, so why not be friends? DH has no issues with it. But then again, no ex's live anywhere in the area, we keep in touch via email.

WE both do, and we are both okay with it.

My ex is my ex from 4 years of college. We were serious, but when we graduated, he wasn't ready to a committment to marriage and I went to grad school and got a job. We did keep in touch though. Then I met hubby to be. Then I changed jobs and ended up in the same company as ex. We would grab lunch once in a while, and hubby to be even met the ex at our company Christmas party.

Haven't heard from ex since I walked down the aisle though.!!

Hubby's ex is a real sweet girl. We went to her wedding at the end of September. I will not lie though - it took me a longggg time to realize they were 'just friends' and I was his one and only. I even helped her plan her wedding. We go out as couples now and have a great time.

NOT ME!!!
I believe the only good ex is a dead ex JK
It's bad enough we're stuck with his ex-wife.
If I don't like someone enough to have a relationship-I probably don't need them in my life.

My attitude is I have enough friends, don't need any baggage clinging to me.

No way!!! Steve used to keep in touch with 2 ex's but once we got serious he stopped on his own. I was in a 8 yr relationship and could never imagine being friends with him now. I also agree with Liz

None. And Dale does not either. We don't even talk about it who we've dated. What is in the past stays there. We only look towards the future.
