Would you mind hanging out with your friend's ex-boyfriend?

These days I am having a great time with a boy who is my friend's ex-boyfriend. They broke up maybe two years ago. I LOVE the boy very much, but I feel uneasy whenever I think that someday my friend will find out our relationship. I think it will be very embarrassing if we three are getting together someday. Sometimes I think that I may just worry too much unnecessarily, but sometimes I feel that I may have to give up one side to save another. I am just worried about losing either. Do you have similar experience? How do you handle this? Thanks a lot for any advice!

Hi there! I agree that you should tell your friend about it as soon as possible so that you can find out how she will react and it will hurt if you don't tell her about it and she'll find out ages after. She'll wonder why you have to keep it from her. Maybe you yourself consider it wrong because if you don't, then why are you having a hard time telling her? I guess that you should tell her to prevent future problems and have the risk of losing your friendship with her.

Thanks a lot for your view. It is not because I consider it WRONG that I hesitate about telling her,after all they have broken up long time ago and have no contact now. It's just that I am sure it will be hard for us to be friends as before if I tell her the news. She is having another relationship now, but girls usually mind this kind of situation. Anyway, I may have to face her someday! Thanks again!

First and foremost tell your friend about your relationship with her ex. It will be more painful if she learn it from other people. And prepare yourself for the consequences that might happen. It is the best way I think to keep both of them. Goodluck to u...

Thank you for the advice! Actually I've thought a lot about telling her, but I just have no nerve to do that. Maybe I just need time to take the step.
