How many of you are still friends with your ex-wives/girlfriends, did you have kids?

Friend is still hanging out with his ex-wife although they had no kids. She is dating someone new so this is really fricking odd to me.
Anyone else still friendly with an ex even though you did not have kids with them?

But to answer your question, my BIL married a girl I dated before.
Glad I got my wife

I'm friends with my 2 exes. It's because of the kids but we often find ourselves at parties, tailgates, birtday dinners around each other. We share Facebook posts, send videos to each other of the kids, etc.
They also both love my gf of 7 yrs(longer than either marriage) and appreciate what she does for their bebes.
I'm very blessed for the pleasant dynamic and I am grateful.

Not friends with, but on friendly terms if we have to communicate.
I would never hang out with her though, frick that. That's weird.

One of my best friends is an old girlfriend. We dated for maybe two years back in the late 90’s. Fought all the time, just real immature. Broke up, moved on. She got married and it didn’t work out and we re-connected afterwards as friends and still are to this day: she’s remarried now and I even stood in her wedding. I’m good friends with her husband too, of course. We’ve still had our ups and downs and it’s very obvious that we’d never work dating but we make great friends. It helps that her husband is a great guy and very cool with our friendship. Now, the girls I’ve dated in the past haven’t always been cool with me being friends with an ex, but that’s just because I seem to date catty, insecure women. Maybe that’s all females, I don’t know. All I know is that I’ve had some degree of pushback from everyone I’ve dated about our friendship.

Have 2 ex's. Hope I never see them again.

frick no. My ex-wife is taking up oxygen a beagle could be breathing. As a matter of fact, the only reason she IS breathing is because she isn’t worth me spending the rest of my life in prison.

I am still very good friends with two ex-girlfriends.
Have not explained this to my new girlfriend yet though....

No. But to be honest I can't be friends with attractive women. I know myself.

ex-wives/girlfriends to friends with benefits? yes, plenty

Friends with only one of my ex gfs she ended up marrying a friend of mine. We dated in college, she's about the only one of my exs that I still have contact with regularly, but I'm friendly with the rest when I bump into them.

Not friends, but an ex gf of mine still calls/texts me every year for my birthday.
This is 8 years in a row now. Kinda strange, to say the least.

Very civil with my ex. We have 1 child. It makes life much easier. I look at friends who always fight with their ex over kids and I thank Heaven we get along. Plus, like mikelbr said, we have bday parties, sporting events etc... we all sat together at a Volleyball game this morning. It works.

Nope. One ex with a kid between us. I view her as a coworker I can't stand, but have to do my best to get along with her for the sake of the team (our daughter). I'm counting down the years to when I don't have to deal with her at all anymore. Only 10 more years to go!

it sounds like your friend is still tagging his ex
Posted on 4/14/18 at 4:42 pm to tduecen
I have no desire to stay in contact with any of my exes.
Posted on 4/14/18 at 4:49 pm to tduecen
I am friends with all my exes (except one) but am still close to my stepgirls and grans by them
While in a marriage I also made a point to create friendships with their ex-wives. It was based upon communication and respect our mutual love of the kids/grandkids.
Hewever, in my current relationship, my guy was married to a psycho goldigger. So there will be no friendship there nor will her children (my guys stepkids) ever be welcome in my house. Their loss

Family member in the clergy who counsels a crap load of fighting couples gave me the correct advice early-on.
1. If you can include your current woman in everything you do and communicate with the ex, you'll probably be OK.
2. If not, stay the hell away from your ex.
