“Can ex-lovers still be friends?” A lot of people may have asked the question once in a while. Some might say yes and throw you the famous, “Time can heal all wounds”, others claim that it’s the craziest thing to do when it comes to love. Admittedly, there’s no accurate or even “right” response to it.
But one thing is certain – there are lots of reasons why one can’t and shouldn’t be friends with an ex. Would you still be in touch with the person who gave you so much pain or would you just leave that person in the past? However you may view it, here are some of the reasons why you can’t be friends with your ex anymore:
6The “you should get back together” moments
The most inevitable (and annoying) thing that could probably happen is this. Aside from being teased, people would tell you two to get back together. The reasons as to why you two decided to break it off can, at times, seem blurry and this will allow you to ponder on whether you should give the past relationship another try. Unfortunately, more often than not, it’s a bad decision to.
Never, never, never, get back together with your ex. I know other couples work it out perfectly the second time around but you shouldn’t take that risk if there’s no valid reason to. Being fragile and missing your ex are the common reasons why you’d rather go back than move on but this could only cause bigger damage for the both of you. Going back to what broke you makes no sense because even if you would feel the same as before, the impact of the break-up is still there. Problems – old or new – will arise. Do you think both of you could handle them when you chose not to when you were still together?
