Gotta disagree with you there Taz. I think it’s absolutely possible to be friends with your ex, depending on how the relationship ended of course.
I’m very open to letting your ex create a new type of relationship with you as a friend after time apart. Obviously if they cheated on you multiple times or did something truly beyond forgiveness than maybe not, but i’m a strong believer in second chances.
I also was friends with my first ex boyfriend after we broke up for years (our lives just didn’t align at the time) and would catch up for coffee or lunch when we lived in the same town, bit more difficult that he lives interstate but i still consider…
Taz is giving FIERCE haha.
But Im with you on this Alessia. My perspective is if you have had kids with someone too - it becomes like “forced proximity” and though sometimes that can be hard and the last thing you want. You can rebuild a friendship again due to having children and co-parenting.
Speaking from experience! We may not be good friends like close, but we get a long and our kids are our number one so I think it’s so important for our children and for them to see and experience this too ❤️
I think it depends on how the break up ended, me and my ex are good friends but we took about 8 months not being friends or talking to work ourselves out 
I think it depends on the relationship you had before you started dating. Like if you were really close friends with ur ex before you started dating and someone just fell out of love then yes I think you can still be friends after that. But also if you are good friends with ur ex before you date them I think you should to talk to them about what might happen if the relationship does end like do you want to stay or friends or completely cut ties. I think if the answer is completely cut ties then you don’t start dating in the first place because you don’t want to lose your friend. However I think if you just…
For me it depends on the situation I’m friends with one of my exes but my Exes I’m not, the ex I’m friends with is because we rushed into the relationship without taking time so we’re good friends now because we don’t have feelings for each other but again it depends on the situation and why you broke up with them in the first place
