By the time you are ready for it, you will no longer care.

umm i think being friends with an ex is tricky but doable if the breakup was mutual and respectful. You’ll know you’re ready when you can talk to them without feeling awkward or emotional and when their presece doesn’t affect your peace.

It’s possible but only if both of you are on the same page emotionally. You’ll know you’re ready when you can genuinly wish them well without feeling hurt for the past. It takes time so don’t force it.

I’ve tried being friends with an ex before nd it worked because we both had closure and no lingering feelins.

I think it depends on the emotional space you’re in. If seing them doesn’t bring back old feelings or hurt and you genuinely enjoy their company then maybe you’re ready.

mostly if you see this kind of friendship is true forgiveness on both sides. if it happens its the healthiest thing that can happen

yes i am friends with my last ex partner and we are like we know each other too well. there is comfort but it is truly platonic now. i dont have any feelings and i cant sense any from her side.
