^{I'm sorry but fuck that... really. if you like him, either talk to your friend or just make a move. a friendship shouldn't get in the way of a relationship, end of story. if it'll make you happy, then go for it. but if you're really worried about it, just talk it out with your friend first. who knows, maybe she'll be all for it.}

Very good call, ST. My best friend dated my ex, and bad things happened. Value your friendship over romance, always.

If she broke up with him, she has no stakes left in him. He's free game. If she feels offended or hurt if you go out with him, she has issues that she needs to work out. Don't deny yourself happiness for her sake.

It really depends on the people, and the situation. Talk to your best friend about it and really pay attention to what she says. When my best friend's ex asked me out - I made sure to ask her first - it worked out completely fine between the three of us.

~SatoshixKasumi-4eva Feb 8, 2012

Just because he's your best friend's ex, doesn't mean he's completely out of bounds. If I played by those rules, not only would I have never had the chance to be with my soulmate, she probably would have stuck it out in a relationship that was slowly killing her, and I probably would have been homeless (or worse. I can't even count the amount of tough situations that she helped me pull through).

Make sure your friend is alright with you dating him first, though. I told mine, and while she almost punched my face in (saying something, since she's a pacifist), she saw that the guilt was tearing me up inside at first, had seen how much I cared about her ex, and managed to laugh it off and forgive me. We're still good friends, and I've been with my gf for almost 2 years

Things can work out between everyone, if done right.

You're a good person. I think it's backhanded when people date their friend's exes, it doesn't matter who broke up with who, there's just a respect that should be kept for your friends. Good for you!

One of my friends dated my ex right after he broke up with me, and while it did hurt (because she did not talk to me about it first), I was okay. I was no longer bound to him in any way, so I could be a good sport about it. "Ex" means "no longer" so it's fair game. Girls (and guys)make up these ridiculous rules for no reason. He's single, he's fair game. That's all there is to it. If she gets upset about you dating him, then she should not have broken up with him. Why should you have to sacrifice your chance at happiness because she's throwing a hissy fit that you're dating her ex? If she wanted him, she should have kept him.

Now I'm not saying, just go for it. The respectable thing to do is to talk to her about your feelings in a calm and reasonable manner. She may be okay with it, she may blow up and be immature about it. Just whatever happens, remain calm. It will be a touchy and sensitive subject for her.

But I think that you should at least try. I don't know the whole situation, but it sounds like y'all really like each other and shouldn't pass up this chance.

Good job respecting the bro code, ST.
Though if you really like him, you could always ask your friend if it's okay with her.

~LiamandAsh Feb 8, 2012 General Artist

Good call. My best friend is currently dating my ex and even though I try not to show it, it's tearing me up.... It has caused numerous fights between us and I feel like I don't even know her anymore. Trust me, friends are worth so much more than that. I think it's great you're being so loyal to your friend <3
