Is it possible to stay mates with an ex and if so, what has to be done to achieve this?

[April Masini, your AskApril]

Yes. Just be friendly. You know how to do that. 🙂

I meant when someone breaks up with you, you’re hurt, etc. So how do you get on their good side? Plus if you do end up on their good side and you’re friendly, etc. There’s a good chance you’re future partner will get jealous and make an issue out of it.

[b]Crazed-driver[/b], you have posted a lot of academic situations in this forum. Rather than philosophize, tell me about relationship problems you have in your REAL LIFE — not [i]possible[/i] problems that may or may not happen. Stop holding the world at arm’s length distance. You’ll find intimacy and specific advice that way.

Thought I already did 😕 And with the advice you gave me i’m going to follow it to the best of my ability.

That’s great. 🙂 Get Date Out of Your League and read it, and then get out there and practice what I preach and you agree with! 😆 Then tell me how things go. I really want to hear about your dating successes! 😀 Here’s the link for Date Out of Your League: [url]https://www.askapril.com/relationship-dating-advice/date-out-of-your-league.html[/url].

Yes, it is possible, but not in all situations. It still depends on how you broke up whether it was on good terms or not.
It also depends on the situation. If either of you has a new partner, they should be aware of it and also be okay with it, so that it doesn’t cause any problems.

And of course, you should both know your limits and how far things should go if you want to maintain the friendship.

I hope this helped. 🙂
