I posted a picture on Fb that triggered an ex gf to message. In the process of talking to her I heard something that Ive heard before,actually rather recently, in regards to thinking about or even remaining friends with ex's.
Apparently some have the belief that once a person is an ex they should cease to exist. While this may be the case in some circumstances (a bad split,violent relationship,or just a shitty person in general for example) its not always the case.
Im friends with a large chunk of my ex's,to varying degrees of how close I am to them. One of my best friends is an ex gf who I spent the majority of my formative years with. Maybe Im delusional (god knows that wouldn't be the first time thats been said about me) but I feel people come into your life for a reason.They make an impact, good or bad. There is no reason to ever forget anyone who has ever had an effect on you. Its those people who helped form you into who you are today. Its not just family ,parents or authority figures who mold you,its all relationships,romantic or otherwise.
Plus in all reality, anyone whos ever dated me deserves an award for bravery ,so who the hell am I to not be a force of support for someone who probably has PTSD from dating me?
