Is it okay to date your exs best friend?

You may just be curious about your exs best friend, and maybe itll even go somewhere real if they happen to be interested as well. In any event, if the split was amicable, its always best practice to respect someones wishes, so if theyre okay with it, its totally acceptable.

Why you should not date your friends ex?

“If your friend isnt OK with it, theyll cycle through feelings of yearning, resentment toward you and their ex, and jealousy,” Heide says. “It will erode your friendship and affect your relationship with your love interest.” It comes down to how you view your friendship — only you can answer which is more important.
