Everything in life ends sooner or later, and love is no exception. People break up, and more often than not they do not maintain friendly relations with each other. However, there is an opinion that there is still friendship between the former.
Should you be friends with your ex?
If you have been dating a person for not a month or two, for quite a long time, most likely you are accustomed to the fact that he is constantly next to you. Therefore, when parting, it is sometimes difficult to come to terms with the fact that someone who once did not leave you a single step will spend time not with you, but with someone else. That is why some guys and girls decide to maintain a warm relationship even after separation.
Pros of Friendship with Exes
Sometimes, people need to wait a while before they establish friendships with an ex-boyfriend or girlfriend, because feelings may not cool down yet. But after a few years, it is quite possible to become good friends. Such friendships are of high value, because the person you knew very closely knows you and all your preferences and tastes just as well. If you get into trouble, chances are he, like no one else, can help you.
Cons of Friendship with Exes
However, everything is not always as cloudless as it seems. This kind of friendship may well not approve of your current soulmate. Perhaps they will constantly be jealous of you and make scandals. Then you should seriously think about what is more important to you: love or friendship.
In addition, there is a danger that old feelings will flare up with renewed vigor, and the romance that has begun will most likely end in the same way as last time.
