I'm not sure about that. My ex wants us to be friends too and this has been bugging me for months. I rejected him, he went away, I lived happily (sort of), then I was getting comfortable and he would call me again the next month and I would say no and then he got stuck in my head again. We both weren't sure if wanted to rekindle what we had. I didn't want to go through that hell again BUT he seemed to be really apologetic and my heart would melt a little each time. I was not even sure what boundaries there ought to be with an ex cause it was my first relationship. After months of this, I got my shit together and I won't let him coax into "being friends again". It took me five months to figure this pattern out and tbh a time had come when I would wait for him to call me back cause I missed him. However he is a manipulative asshole who took me for granted when we were together so I'm finally DONE with him.

She talks so stereotypically dumbitch it makes me kinda angry with her that he does that to her ex if she knows it comes from a place of unrequited love.

Crazy how some people persist to contact their exes. I'm far too prideful (not saying it's a good trait) to ever contact an ex after getting broken up with. Sure it sucks, and it has eaten me alive for a couple months resisting the contact, but in the end it's for the best. You realize sooner than later that you get over your crappy feelings and meet new people that make you soon forget your ex. Spamming your ex will only extend your healing process, and I really do believe it can cause some mental issues if you let it drag out too long. Last year my girlfriend broke up with me and I felt like I went through 3 months of hell by dwelling on it. The thought of that feeling lasting any longer would have literally drove me insane. I'm glad I resisted the temptation of contact, otherwise I might still be lingering on. Be smart and move on people.

While I see your point of view. I think that we should also look at the way the relationship ends, and if space is needed, take it, but not all exes should be avoided just because they are exes. They can also make great friends. And who knows, a lot of the times people reconnect with those who they felt the biggest connection with, and it just may end up being that one person you accepted to keep as a friend, but don't dwindle on it, and instead just enjoy life and what comes with it. Make your own path and what attracts it will follow.

I'm in the same exact situation.. my ex was trying to be friends but i realized it was just bringing up lots of our past issues, which I hadn't allowed myself enough time to heal from. I'm glad I chose the right path and watching this video confirms it. Thanks Matthew :-)

It depends on so many things... If both are mature enough to keep the limits and both have no romantic feelings anymore, there is no problem in staying friends. This girl is just playing stupid as she knows he is into her and that nutures her ego, the fact that the false hope destroys his ego is secondary. What will she offer as a "friend"?

Your advice, although it incorporates advice on current issues and technology and frustrations, is really timeless! Thank you Matthew.

I am just feeling better and better. Thanks for showing us how to be a decent human being.

I think this video answers one kind of situation, but in my case I want to stay friends with some of my exes because the feeling of love doesn't go away, and i don't want to lose someone special to me. I have also been in a situation where someone I'm friends with for years (never dated) has suddenly told me they like me, and then I have to reject them every time i see them, leading to our friendship ending. What I'm saying is that it is definitely possible to be friends with exes, but you can't be friends with people who have feelings for you whether you've dated or not.

There is ways of putting a stop to someone without it having to get to a harassment sort of state. Block, block, block.

Thank you so much Matthew for this video.. Thank you for your honest opinion and not being irritated by the caller. Lol. Anways, I am currently going thru the same situation but the only difference is my Ex just got married few months back and is hell bent on staying "Friends" with me after leaving me to marry another girl 5 months after our breakup and yet he keeps manipulating me to not give up on our friendship. I finally have an unbiased advise and the perfect response to give him and would try as much to cut him off completely. PS; Your smile was really warming... :)

If you read this, I love you man, you have sorted out what I was craving for! Thanks! May God bless you!

"Should you stay friends with your ex?" Same answer as "Do you want to be just friends with your ex?" That's "friends" as in, only ever friends. Not "Well I'm hoping that they'll see how great I am and one day we'll get back together because of it." Not "I'm going to prove that I've changed by staying in their life." Whatever you want from your ex, friendship or getting back together, be honest about it. And if you want different things, then you need to go your separate ways. Think about one of your friends of the same gender (or if you're gay, the opposite gender) - basically someone you'd never have any sexual attraction toward. I have a guy friend who just got engaged. I see him on the couch making out with his girlfriend, I'm not sitting there getting jealous. It doesn't hurt me to see that. I support their relationship and I want them both to be happy, because I view them both as "just friends." If someone is "just your friend", you'd want them to be in a successful relationship with someone else. If you aren't comfortable with that - if you don't fully support them finding the right person for them, then that isn't a healthy friendship. I saw this happen with a different friend of mine. His girlfriend broke up with him and he kept persisting, talking about how he was going to "win her back" and "prove that he'd changed." This is someone who already told him she didn't want to be with him. Now he's constantly at her beck-and-call, always there as a shoulder for her to cry on whenever she wants it, and she even tells him in front of others "Hey, remember, we're just friends" when he talks about wanting to see her. It's really sad to watch and he now he's talking about how that's what he wants - to be "just friends" with her, and you can tell that's not what he wants. You can tell he wants more than that, and he's going to get hurt, especially when she fully moves on and starts dating someone else. He's only pushing her further away, because she knows she can get everything she liked about the relationship out of him without having to put in any effort or commitment. He needs to be honest with himself and with her about what he wants.

I think the key takeaway from this call is that, for two people to stay in a meaningful long-term interpersonal relationship (relationship in broader terms), their intentions towards one another need to be aligned. There also needs to be a healthy amount of respect, self-respect and NO presence of unhealthy attachment.

The way he says "Hangin' in there for...so long...". Gosh.

6:00 Bro, your advice really deeply touch my heart. Even though I'm a dude but I'll take it for myself. Thanks.

My "ex" and I were close friends for a long time before we decided to date for a few months. I ended it because it didn't feel right. I didn't see him for half a year but after a friendly catchup he told me he still liked me. I told him to move on and stopped talking to him. Half a year later he ran into me and we exchanged small talk. He asked me out for catchup but after numerous excuses I ended up going to a very awkward dinner. On a tipsy night with mutual friends, although I kept my distance I ended up in front of him frustrated and rejecting him. A couple of days later, he texted me asking to see me so I decided to unfriend him completely. We're strangers now, but I do feel very bad to have lost such a good friend.

It's hard to keep friendship when: » you still talk to each other everyday, from mourning to night; » he/she or both wanna make love or sex together; » he/she still shares romantic songs with you; » someone recalls good memories when you were happy and in love; » ...

How long after the breakup were you able to be friends with your ex and if it was a long time (more than a year), how did you rekindle the friendship?

I love the way Matthew's handled this. She clearly doesn't want to be friends with the guy...she's power tripping and sees an opportunity. He's debasing himself by pursuing her for 6 months. All they could possibly be is TOXIC.

I love you and your brain and your smile.

You cannot grow as a person, let alone. With another person. When you've got one foot in the past, and one in the present... Cut off and sever all communication with your Ex's. So you can begin healing and growing into the better version, and learn from your lessons with them. So you can move into a new relationship with both feet. Because in the end. Keeping in touch with an Ex (W/o children involved.) Is unfair for the new partner you meet. Whom has both feet present for you to get to know. I broke up with a girlfriend because of this fact alone. I told her my boundary from the get-go before we got romantic. She continued to stay in touch. I dumped her the moment it was revealed she couldn't respect that wish. Because at the end of the day, she wasn't present and in the moment with me, as her man. As much as she could have been. In turn, could not fully develop feelings, despite the Ex was dating new women.

One of these friends I just recently ran into 18 years later!!! And we’re still the best of friends. I’m thinking at this point he probably knows not to ever go their again!!!

She was pissing me off because she knows that she over with him and told him that. I would stopped texting him if I was her because at least he was told by her leaving me alone. I was misled and kept around when a simple I’m moving on when we broke up would be nice. Now that hurts even more

However i had an different boyfriend who was very bad and doing drugs etc, so i didnt stay friends with him, i blocked n deleted and 1 yr later, were still not talking and im doing just fine and being healthy, cuz i dont want those kinds of people in my life.

No point, both people have to be mature and on the same page. If they genuinely enjoy their presence as human beings then sure. Sometimes two people need to step back and eventually get back together but that's not always the case.

I understand this girl, sometimes after being strong for a while, you an feel a little bit weak and ask yourself if a friendship may work.

I couldnt believe how she cant see shes giving him all these mixed signals.this is a high school level crap. very attention seeking,self centered thinking.if she stopped thinking about herself and thought about why shes even playing games maybe she'll mature faster. I wouldnt be surprised if this guy is just messing with her because shes doing it to him.shes a challenge when hes between chics and bored.

Many discuss whether or not be friends with an ex, but I'm surprised to not see this question/topic covered: What if he or she is good/best friends with their ex? And esp. if they've hooked up with that ex again years after breaking up, but still remain friends!

Can’t believe I even thought about this for a second every second you spent thinking about your exes another second wasted that you could’ve spent finding a better person

Well, for the way she reacts, i guess she kept him around. He was just comfused. If you aproach someone and they act like they think it is NICE or COOL, would you get the hint that they want you to go away? Lol clueless

My ex is one of my best friend right now. He is always there for me. He is in a relationship now and I am happy he is happy 😍

Just, don't do it. After 15 years my ex and I developed a (so I thought) sincere companionable friendship. After a year, he started moving the dial into "I'm in love with you again, I can't stop thinking of you, I want to ask you to move back into our home...." and five days later to threw it away to jump into a cheap hookup with another woman when she complimented a gift I had just given him. Ridiculous. Now I'm not only dealing with the sadness of losing a good friend, but it reopened some old insecurities that I thought I was long over. I'm only going forward now. In a good way, it let me LET GO of some old guilt I didn't realize I was still carrying so that's been a positive.

I was wondering weather to stay friends with my ex and I think i would end up wanting to get back together and so i just left it to be part of my memories and moved on. Cheers matt.

OMG, she's just loving the attention. You can see why they are not together. "Is this like a radio show or something?"

Thank you Matt you save my life

she keeps trying to interrupt him and I'm about to go off haha

There are many different kinds of people out in the world. Just because YOU can see how a situation should be played out doesn't mean the person in the situation also sees your POV. It sounds like this person is very young and inexperienced in relationships, so Matt treated her as such while planting some good advice. At least you, the viewers, now know Matt isn't "making up" the women on his radio show....
