They split up close to 2 years ago, and he's been with a new girl for over a year and a half, so i'm sure there's little hard feelings. BUT, there's that rule... that you don't date within the circle. Plus, they pretty much hate each other. lol If things turn out good, its going to be a pain going to mutual events with her as my g/f should it turn out that way. thoughts? of course, TTIWWOP.... lol here ya go. won't be up for long though.

Speaking for myself, in a situation like this I would say nothing to you unless my ex happened to be Asami Yamazaki from the movie Audition. Then I would tell you to run faster than Budweiser going through your digestive tract! After that, it's all up to you... | | | 05-04-2009, 03:53 PM | #4 | NOBODY F's with the Jesus Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Ventura California Posts: 7,824 | I'd tap that. | | | 05-04-2009, 05:49 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Denver, Colorado Posts: 3,212 | Dude hit that, i wouldn't consider him a friend. Now if he was your best friend or something like that then thats a different story. | | | 05-04-2009, 06:18 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: central ct Posts: 503 | thanks kinda what i'm thinking too... his loss. would you believe shes 31? __________________ 2010 Genesis Coupe 2.0t track | 2000 Dakota Former 1995 318ti owner | | | 05-04-2009, 07:21 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 1,895 | How old are you if you don't mind my asking? __________________ ... ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ | | | 05-04-2009, 07:53 PM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Land of the Vikings Posts: 2,700 | man , the ex best friend sory is old news... get on it before she´s gone __________________ Vin Number decode and Retrofit Pdfs Available Free !

Seriously though, if she's cool and you think you guys are compatible, by all means go for it. It's hard to find a partner these days with the same interests and goals. Remember, looks aren't everything. Take her on a few dates and if everything works out and she doesn't show any psycotic behavior, perhaps she's a keeper | | | 05-05-2009, 12:13 AM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Bethlehem, PA Posts: 1,106 | think about it like this. if you date here , the odds are that you might break up with her is she isnt the one.. okay, everyone knows that, right? but if you date her, and your friend gets upset with you, then you might lose your best friend.. and.. it might be next to impossible to fix the relationship. i think u kinda know that since u had to ask a bunch of people u didnt know.. haha.. u can always find a girl.. half the worlds population are women.. but u only a have few best friends.. =] if it were me, i think i would jokly ask you friend about it to see how he really feels.. even if he says its cool, he might have had some attachment to her... Did she break up wit him, or him with her.. ? __________________ Check out our new website! https://soltechsolutionsllc.com/ Green Your Decor with the Aspect!

Basically he's a friend of a friend. | | | 05-05-2009, 05:28 AM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: central ct Posts: 503 | Quote: Originally Posted by b.u.ti-ful How old are you if you don't mind my asking? | i'm 29 Quote: Originally Posted by cooljess76 It's not his best friend, he barely hangs out with the guy.

If you're both into it, for the right reasons then for sure. Any problems with either the friend or friend-of-friend will be resolved in time (assuming they are true friends). This is a wicked emo question no doubt, but you get credit for candor. __________________ I scream, you scream, we all scream for ZOMBIES. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
