I think most people have to remove them from their lives for a while and then after a few years it may be safe to have them as an acquaintance once again.

They're in my life.

SJD x
run into him occasionly and wish I could run over him
TexChik · F
I chose not to have an ex, its just easier that way. 😉
Prettybratbi1tch · 26-30, F
Oh yes I love having exes around as friends. Wait I don't have any exes 👀
within · 36-40, M
No, I don't want to be friend with my exes...
Tastyfrzz · 61-69, M
It's easier being friends, don't ya think?
eyeno · M
You're history....!
Should I bump into you I'll still be nice though...

I prefer to just not have to be around them.
Adrift · 61-69, F
If you have had kids with them, you are kind of stuck with maintaining a relationship with them, so choose your exes wisely.
No.. she has moved on.

I’m friends with a couple of them, it’s nice. There are some who I don’t get on with though.
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
I'm happy with my exes being out of my life. Both of them ended it in very cowardly fashion.
Have not seen her since 1978, I wish her all the best

I do not even think of her at all
Blondily · F
Ex bfs. Zero contact plus 2 died but not by my hand! 🥹
exexec · 70-79, C
I don't have any exes. All of my wife's exes are from her college days, and she is still friends with some of them. They all are 800 miles or more away from us, so it's not a problem.
Picklebobble2 · 61-69, M
I get the occasional message either in person or via third party known to us both.
But no direct regular contact
Jonjdw · 51-55, M
None are in my life, but then I’ve been married for 29 years. They were only girlfriends.
I don’t have an ex

But if I did that would be the whole point

EX

Finito - done ✅

Wish em well and keep on keeping on 🙏🏼💕🕊
Ambroseguy80 · 56-60, M
I would probably remain civil with mine, due to having children, but not “friends”
Jexie · 26-30, F
If he's still single, keep as friends. But if he finds someone, it would be harder to be friends so remove
emiliya · 26-30, F
I was friends with first ex after a year or so but he was horrible to me. Second I was talking to here and there, to say happy birthday or ask each other how we are. Last time was about two years ago.

My boyfriend now I would never speak to again.
HumanEarth · F
When kids are involved, the ex is your life, for life.

Unless their a murderer or something really, really bad
Magenta · F
I don't have an ex.
Just old boyfriends from many years ago. There are no hard feelings between me and any of them, but they aren't in my life per se.
Alyosha · 36-40, M
Get rid of them.
GoFish ·
Im fb friends with my ex but we are pretty much removed from each others lives also i rarely go to fb and he rarely uses the internet
meggie · F
If I'd of had kids with him, I'd try to remain friendly for the kids sake. But fortunately I didn't and have no contact at all. He's tried to friend family on facebook, as he wants to stay in touch, but after years of unhappiness i dont want anything to do with him.
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
Depends on how the breakup went.
ViciDraco · 41-45, M
It really depends on the ex and why things didn't work out. All of my exes are long distance. We remained amicable but the fade away happened more naturally.
lissah · 36-40, F
Either/or. It doesn't matter to me.
Imsolost · 51-55, M
Depends on how/why she is my ex. I am friends with a couple of them but my first wife I do not and would not have anything to do with her in fact I have stopped talking to people who still talk to her
nazgul · 26-30, F
Complete removal. They're not bad people they're just not people I want to be friends with.
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
@nazgul Exactly. I honestly feel like it would be easier getting along with my exes if they were bad people. The problem is that they still have all the personality traits that attracted me to them in the first place.
AbbeyRhode · F
Once someone is out of my life, the door is closed. No anger, no grudges, just no anything.
Kiesel · 56-60, M
While I hated it initially after the breakup/fallout, it’s best that there’s never any communication
