Could You Be Friends with His Ex?
Last week, I logged into Facebook and had a startling discovery…
My ex’s ex-girlfriend had sent me a friend request!
The backstory: They dated for years, long before he and I got together a couple of years ago. He and I no longer talk, but have mutual friends, which is how I met this girl one night. She was friendly, and we avoided talking about our common former love interest. And that was that, or so I thought…
So what did I do? I accepted. My friend found it odd that she’d reach out to me, and I’m sure our mutual ex is quaking in his boots, but at the end of the day I figured it’s Facebook…how many people on our friend lists do we really hang out with?
Am I nuts? Do you ever socialize with the exes of the men you dated…or currently date?

I consider an ex-girlfriend of my husband’s to be one of my dearest friends. Oddly, we are quite similar which always leaves me wondering why they never worked romatically.
Eek! Allison you are awesome. I don’t think I could hack this. Maybe, but I doubt it. I prefer to keep seven degrees of seperation (whether that’s seven states, countries, land masses) between me and the ex’s ex. I’m sure they’re lovely, but I guess I’m not mature enough to handle it!
