Is it OK for a friend to date your ex?
I worked so hard to get into this program, and my marks and professionalism are my 1 priority. But the fact you've asked this question on this site indicates that you don't have that level of closeness - at least not yet. I definitely think there's a difference between people who've come of age with internet porn, like me and my ex, and people who haven't, like my husband.
For peter's sake, who does she think she is? Funny meeting you here! I'm not trying to generalize, but most of my female friends talk about past boyfriends, dissecting why their relationships didn't work.
Is it OK for a friend to date your ex? - So when we do have that special someone it may be hard for us to let go.
My Ex-boyfriend is dating a girl I work with. He cheated on me, we tried to work through it, but I dating couldn't get over it, so we ended it. Now, he's dating a girl in my school program. She's in most of my classes and I'm struggling with it. I tear-up every time I see her. I have mid-terms and papers due, I'm falling behind, and I start to break-down just thinking about school. I can't take a break from my program or change classes, and I don't know how to cope. I worked so hard to get into this program, and my marks and professionalism are my 1 priority. This is my career network, and I don't want my colleagues to have a negative opinion of me. Am I being unreasonable? Should I say nothing? What might my colleagues think of me if I asked them not to see each other? My school is really big on professionalism, so I worry if I asked for some extensions while I dealt with it emotionally, they would just think I'm jealous and immature. You have every right to feel pain, jealousy, anger but keep it to yourself. The relationship you once had with your ex is over and this new girl has nothing to do with you and your feelings. You boyfriend coworker with them on your own. Carry yourself with professionalism and dignity in your school program and then come home and cry, shout, and scream if you need to let it out. You'll be surprised at how empowering this will be for you.
