Not even remotely close to being friends with any of them and I would not be comfortable with my husband being friends with any of his.

No, but none of the relationships ended vaguely well.

Nope, and I wouldn't be comfortable with a partner being close friends with an ex either.

Good friends, not best, but yup. It works only when we have both spent long enough time away from each other without any contact. I would say don't do it unless you're entirely comfortable with the idea.

Yes, I'm still friends with some of my exes. My partner is still friends with some of his, too. It doesn't bother either of us.

It did take me awhile to be friends with one specific exes. For a long time, it hurt being around him, because I didn't exactly want the bf/gf part of our relationship to be over. After a great deal of time away, we're now very good friends.

I am friends with them on FB, but we dont really talk much.

I was a friend to one, until he had a go at my sister (who is only 14 years old) telling her to go get herself a vibrator to fuck herself with. Needless to say, we haven't talked since. Her comeback was a good one.
"Go fuck yourself. Oh wait, you can't. You don't have a dick!"

That put a damper on his spirits. (He's only 4 inches)

I am with one of them but we never got very serious to begin with. I think with future ex's or ex's of my partner it'd really have to depend on the person and circumstances, I guess.

We were, then i dunno we don't talk very much anymore.
probably for the best though. i'm still kind of stuck on him. :/

I'm not good friends with any of my exes. At one point I used to be, but we went on a trip together and it was such a disaster we haven't spoken since. :/

My first ex and I are very good friends, but the second one is complicated.

Nope. It usually ends pretty badly/explosively with my exes, and it's impossible to be friends. My ex from high school hasn't spoken to me since I graduated. My first ex from college and I can be civil, and he and I look out for each other when serious things happen in our lives. (He's reached out to me when each of my dogs died, I reached out to him when his dad died.) My second ex from college and I don't talk, and my third from college tried to sabotage all of my friendships with any of our mutual friends. Good times!

Oh yes, me and my ex are best friends, but I guess we're exes on weird terms!

There are a few that I'm friends with. My most recent, though we're still really awkward, so I don't know if I consider us friends yet, one from about three years ago, and one from four.

I have a few exs that I am still in contact with...don't know that I would use the word "friend" though

I have children with my ex husband, so I see him on a regular basis. We're on good terms, probably close to being friends.

Yes, with a few.

Uh, nope. I haven't spoken to any of my exes in more than a decade, and I don't think it would really work for me. (I don't have that many exes actually, but when it didn't work in my relationships it Didn't Work in a Big Way. I think I made some very poor choices of who to date back in the day.)

Nope

I've tried to be, but it gets weird after awhile.

No I am not and I prefer it that way. They are ex's for a reason! My husband is friends with some of his but so am I. I'm fine with it as its just pure friendship and the relationship was silly high school stuff.

I'm not friends with any of mine. The most recent one I still see most days of the week, but we do not speak.

I'm friends with one of my exes, but the relationship was during our teen years when I was very confused about my sexuality. Now it's pretty much a distant memory that we kinda laugh about.

In all of my relationships except that one, I've been the dumpee. And all of my other exes have eventually come back to try to reconcile, and I inevitably rejected them. Later on, we'd try friendship, but there was a lot of animosity in most of them because I rejected them (ha, and yet they dumped me), so we just couldn't. I've since given up on the notion. It sounds weird, but I see this as a common trend among all of my exes since the first.

It's sad realizing that someone you once loved so much is just a stranger now. I hope one day I can at least be acquaintances with most of my exes because I am a very caring and forgiving person, but for now it's just not healthy for me. Even an ex from 4 years ago thinks she can make calls on my life and what I do wrong. We recently tried to be friends once more, but I had to distance myself again.

All of the lovers that I've had have been absolutely amazing human beings. Just because I no longer want to spend *all* of my time with them, doesn't mean I want to cut them out of my life forever just for not being the perfect match to my crazy self.

I find it usually takes a little time of separation before the friendship can start again. It's not like you can be bestfriendlovers, drop the lover part and keep going exactly as you were.

I have been. Not currently but I definitely think its possible and good, especially if your relationship started from a friendship.
