No. Past is my past
Depends on the ex. Generally, no, not with the crazy ones. Amicable break-ups are OK but I'm a jealous bitch and I probably piss my lovely lady off more than I wish I did with it.
I think it's ok to be friends but not intimate friends. What I mean is, as a married person I shouldn't confide in or share my deepest darkest secrets with my ex because those thoughts, feelings and conversation are designated to and intended for my spouse.
Being civil to each other, yes. Close friends? I'd say no.
Yeah, same here.

I believe that it is ok to be friends with an ex, if there are no expectations.
No, because theres a special connection that will never go away
If you was friends before that and then the refashion ship didn't work out then yes I think that they should still be friends x
They can be acquantances but not close friends. Either way, I trust him.
I think we are both friends with some of our exs and we aren't really the jealous type so that's ol
No
That's a tough yet not tough question. As long as everything is out in the open and their ate no secrets kept or private conversations there really is not a problem
