The reality of dating your friend's ex - 'Be ready for the fallout'
She adds that before you proceed, be sure your friend and their ex have had enough time to get over each other. If you decide to ago against it, allow yourself to grieve the loss of the potential relationship and 'what could have been'.
“If the breakup involved broken hearts, disappointment and betrayal, dating your friend’s ex can be viewed as choosing the ex’s side. Breakups also take time and closure so dating a friend’s recent ex can seriously delay their ability to move on. It can also cause conflict and judgement from your mutual friends.”
Nokubonga says she first noticed that something was up when her friend started acting strangely towards her. Before you proceed, be sure your friend and their ex have had ample time to get over each other. The best way to approach this involves an open conversation. This calls for honesty about your feelings from the get-go.
