Why You Should Not Date Your Ex Buddie

By: rodrigo rehn

You have to face it. Dating your ex buddie is presumably a better option when it comes to dating. First, you do not have to worry about his background as your ex might have mentioned him a couple of times. Second, you do not have to worry about his interests. You ex and his bud might have spent times doing guy activities that you already know what excites them. Finally, what is a better way to get revenge on your ex than to replace him with someone close to him?

Regardless of these tempting advantages, there are several reasons why you should refrain from dating your ex bud. There are many reasons to mention but here are some of them:

Dating your ex buddy may mean you are still not over your ex You read it right. Dating his best bud may mean that you are still not over your ex. You want to continue to be in his network or circle of friends that you chose to date someone close to him. In fact, you chose someone who has the same interests as him or even the same characteristics and lifestyles as him.

Dating your ex buddy may cause a crack on their friendship One of the causes of friendship wreck may come from dating a member of the opposite sex who dated one of them. This is true especially when the former relationship was serious and moving on has not taken place yet. Do not be the cause of a friendship break up and this will be possible by not dating your ex buddy.

Dating your ex buddy may end up with the two of them sharing notes about you. This is the exact opposite of the item above. If your date meetings with his ex bud do not destroy their friendship at all, it may strengthen it instead. It s a good thing for them as they have shared a lot of things including you. The bad thing is that you have been judged or seen by your ex even before his bud had.

Dating your ex buddy may cause you boredom
Boredom is boredom and you can not change that. Why choose someone almost the same as your ex? Are not you scared of the same tricks and the same interests that he and your ex might have?

Dating your ex buddy may lead you nowhere
It is a matter on who weighs more: you or their friendship. Whichever is chosen, one will get hurt. See it as a bomb waiting to explode. Save yourself from the dilemma. Get rid of your ex circle and find other people to date.

Dating your ex buddy may present a lot of complications. Do not drag yourself in a nasty situation. It may sound fun and interesting at the beginning but it will get all intertwined later on. Avoid this sticky situation dating someone else outside you and your ex circle. Meet new faces and explore different personalities. After all, that is s what dating is all about.
