Dating the Frex
One of the most forbidden fruits is the person your friend is dating or married to. Anyone with any insight to the way death is dealt out in the world knows that staying away from your friends significant other is the first good step to continuing a long and happy life. Yet for better or worse, relationships don’t always last.
They break up, fall apart and fall out of touch. In many cases, this is like a mini-breakup for you, too, because your friends love interest has become a part of your life, no matter how significant. I was reading a fluff piece on the “frex” – or friends ex. It talks about the possibility of continuing a friendship with your friend’s frex after the breakup. The advice they give is that you should basically stay away from the frex if you don’t want to endanger your relationship with your friend. That sounds like good advice . . . but what if you think that the frex could be “the one” for you? I haven’t had that experience in a long time – thinking that a frex would be a good match for me. But it could happen. I don’t know that I’d take the plunge, even considering the possibility of a life of love. My friends are just too important. Would you??
