Should I Date My Ex's Good Friend

[Sunnydays1974]

I dated my ex-partner for around 4 months last summer, and although it fizzled out we have remained good friends. My ex has said they still really like me though.

My ex has a best friend who has recently become single and so has suggested we meet up for a drink. I'm tempted but am not sure if this is a good move in case it goes horribly wrong. Any advice?

If you don't fancy him, I wouldn't bother. It's too soon, it's too close, he's good friends with your ex, you're still friends with your ex and your ex still fancies you.

Speaking as the ex in this situation, just know that it has the potential to cause lots of upset and bad feeling all round, so it depends how much you value your friendships with these people.
