What do you think about dating a friend's ex-girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/husband? Would it put a strain on your friendship?

To be clear, I mean a real relationship, not just a one-nighter. If this has been asked before, just skip it.

Could never see myself sitting around with my friend and my ex at the same time. Adios Amigo... I would never do it and would certainly never tolerate it. It would make me wonder what was going on in closed minds while we were together, and that kind of shit don't float around here.

ive actually dated many of my good friends exes... and it does make you lose a friend.. i guess you just have to decide how much you like the guy... and how good of a friend it is.. there are a lot of things that come into play.. like how long they had been broken up... and i think that its something you can eventually get over... you can hang out with your friend without the guy around and such... but usually you do lose your friend.. at least for some period of time.

Nope...if you can't be a loyal friend, how can you be a loyal girlfriend/lover? Personally I think it's a BAD idea. Definitely the end of a friendship.

We do NOT date the same guy.

I have a customer who's been seperated for over three years. He's trying to get the process moving. He WANTS me to approach his estranged wife in that way....hoping that will spur action.

I just looked him square in the eye and said; "you've just spent 20 minutes b*tching about her. Now you want me to date her....just for a sale. I'm a slut, but that ain't gonna happen. Besides, you think my prices are high now. You ain't seen nothing yet"

All with a huge grin of course. But, last time in, he did ask me about my progress. See, she works at another of my customers. If she was more my type....I might try to ablige him - I'm not the saint you all think I am. cough-cough

I think it is ok to date a friends ex boyfriend or girlfriend, but not husband or wife. Nor someone that the friends was engaged to...that to me is stepping over the line.also it depends on how long your friend and that person was together, i think there should be a 6 month rule...if they were together for more than 6 onths than no you should not do it..
my friends and i dont usually date other friends, but if we do we all try to use that outlook on it

I couldn't do it and not think of my friend especially if they had a bad breakup.

People are your friends because you have a lot in common and the same interests. If the ex didn't work out with them it most likely wouldn't work out with you either. Besides, your friend would think you have no respect for them. A woman or man with class wouldn't do this. That is part of what makes a man a gentleman and a woman a lady.
