Can you be 'fuck buddies' with your ex...?

[theendoftheendoftheend]

Is it possible or is it always heading towards a big fall out?

If you have children together, does it make horrifically selfish?

Is there ever going to be a happy ending for those involved? (children included) and I don't necessarily mean getting back together etc, just anyway of no one getting hurt?

Has anyone ever been in this kind of situation?

Sorry for it reading like a questionnaire!

Theend, when our son was 6 weeks old. And yes, very hard to deal with, not least because he has put her over DS ever since. Which I suppose proves that my doubts in our relationship were wrll founded. But still.

I'm in a slightly similar situation. My ex and I have 2 young children and have been separated a year. We are good friends for the children's sake and do family days out regularly. We go out for dinner and we help each other out. The children know that mummy and daddy are good friends but not partners any more. We share the child care and we have actually become better friends than partners. I don't however, see him in a sexual way any more and couldn't consider sleeping with him. I have met someone else whom I have strong sexual feelings for.
If I was you, I would keep it as friends for kids sake. Keep up family days, etc but as soon as sex is involved, emotions can develop. Depends where you want your 'relationship' to go.

Also, meeting someone else does change the dimensions slightly. However, my new guy is ok with me and my ex having family time. Hopefully anyone you meet will feel the same.

For men yes. For woman no. Simple

No not necessarily. I'm more than happy with the situation with my ex. It suits us both. You can't generalise that it doesn't suit any women

It might suit you now but you will eventually start to wonder then emotionally invest. Even without meaning too.. Just my opinion

No i won't. This has worked for as long as it has because we're both on the same page. i don't love him he doesn't love me. I don't want anything more from him than we have. That's NOT going to change. It might not work for a lot of people but it CAN work
