Why do you think exes can't be friends?

It is all about control and who is pushing who's buttons. The old saying you can never go home, would apply to this topic. If we continue to do what we have always done, then the results will continue to be what we have always gotten.

Just move on for the sake of all of those involved! Best of luck! K9.

I cannot be friends with an ex for one main reason: it is impossible to go backwards. Even if the relationship is truly over in every sense, you cannot go back to a time when those interactions had not happened. While I have no remotely romantic feelings for any exes, there will always be the recollection of negative experiences that brought the end of the relationship.

I don't need or want to be reminded of those things. No matter how terrific a person or great a friend an ex might be, I ended the relationship for a reason. Life has moved past that, and I need to keep it moving forward rather than URL1 many cases, one or both former partners have moved on to other relationships, and continued interaction can cause emotional difficulty for the current partner.

Keeping in touch with an ex isn't worth upsetting the person I am with.

I don't think that at all..............................................................

Aahhh... nobody wants to repeat the same mistakes he or she did in past.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
