Should you still hang out with your ex?

Is it OK to hang out and text with your ex BF?
 
Hey girl! There’s a lot that goes into a BF/GF relationship, and it isn’t always easy to throw that away. If you’re dating, you’re not only spending hours together hanging out, but you also respect, trust and support each other. Now aren’t those the same qualities you look for in a friend?
 
There is a reason that after a breakup the first words that are spoken are often, “I hope we can still be friends.” It isn’t a cliché—they’re usually said because they’re true. That is, unless your ex is just trying to let you down easy and he wants to spare your feelings. But if it was a healthy and happy relationship, there is no reason why you can’t split on friendly terms.
 
Still, hanging with your ex can create quite a few sticky sitches. What if you start to crush on him again? He can’t get over you? Or if your new beau doesn’t like you hanging with him? The answer: Keep the relationship light and easy, and always give him some space for a few weeks after the breakup. Always keep in mind your feelings and the feelings of those around you. There’s no sense in hurting anybody just because you’ve kept in contact with your ex.

My bf is everything you could want but when he dated my friend he was 1. always with her 2. he loved holding her hand and pda but he doesn't with me and i'm scared he doesn't like me as much as i like him. and after one mutual friend told me that my bf told him that he didn't want to kiss someone he wasn't going to be with for a long time and another one said that my bf likes me more than anyone WHAT SHOULD I BELIEVE

 

Hey girlie, don't listen to everyone else. Talk to him about it. Just tell him that you really like him and you want your relationship to be more physical and see what he says. He might like you so much that he's intimidated and afraid to do the same things with you.

I am in a confusing love triangle that I don't know how to get out of!! So here is how it goes: My best friend / ex boyfriend(we broke up because he moved to a different state)tried to have a long-distance relationship. It isn't working out because he is super unreliable(never texts/talks to me anymore and he promised to get me a birthday present,but never did and 4 months later he texted me "happy very-late birthday") but for holidays he comes back and is the sweetest, most romantic guy ever. The second guy was our 3rd bff. After my bf moved he started being really nice to me and we've been going out on the weeknds a lot and whenever we talk it gets on the topic of my on-again off-again bf and he always says stuff like "If you were with me I would never hurt you like he does" and he's so sweet but a part of me still wants my on-again-off-again bf. What should I do!

 

Hey girlie, who do you have feelings for? Think about it for a while and then follow your heart. You'll figure out and choose the right guy. It doesn't sound like your current boyfriend is especially invested in you right now so he might need some more time to mature.

I have a major crush on this guy I went to Confirmation class with in November. I gave him my number and he said he would call me but he never did. I'm confused by this because it really seemed like he liked me. Well, my friend and I decided that we will go to church together to possibly see him next Sunday. The problem is my church is in a different town with kids I don't have any contact with so if I don't see my crush there I have no chance in contacting him. He also doesn't have a Facebook, twitter, kik etc. What should I do? I really want to see him again and this time get HIS number.

 

Hey girlie, maybe he lost your number. If you see him, talk to him and see how he reacts. He'll ask for your number again if he doesn't have it, and if he doesn't seem interested then you're better off without him.

It seemed like when my I first met my crush, he liked me. He smiled at me for no reason and stared out the window at me. I decided to talk to him on fb. It went great, but when it came time to talk in person, I got nervous and avoided him. I got tired of months of silence, so I told him in person that I'm sorry that I never talk to him, it's just that I like him. And he said "yea I kinda knew that". Then, he fb chats me that he's sorry and he gave me his # to text. But then, he got his bff to reject me for him. He avoided me after that. To stop the awkwardness, I threw snow at him at a party. His friend, my friend, me, and him were all throwing snow at each other. Then, one day he sent me a game request and liked my tbh status. His bff played a joke on me, and I saw my crush give me this shy flirty smile. He's been showing up around me a lot more. Does it sound like he likes me now? What are some convo starters for this situation? I'd like to get to know him better.

 

Hey girl, its definitely possible! Just keep on talking to him and flirting. See what happens and where it goes!
