Are guys bothered by their friends dating their ex?

Question - (26 May 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 26 May 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

A few years ago, I was "casually" seeing this guy. Long story short, he was a jerk and didnt want a relationship and was just using me so I ended it. A year later, he called and asked if we could still be friends and we hung out once and talked. The whole being friends thing didnt work out, as I didnt think it would, because he never called again. A couple of months later, I started dating one of his friends. They aren't super close but they did live together for a year and still keep in contact. Ironically, my boyfriend said that the other guy called him the day after we had our first date. I asked him if he told him about us but he said he didnt. Although he was much nicer than his friend ever was, we broke up after a month of dating. A couple of weeks later, I saw his friend and he gave me a dirty look and didnt say hi, like he usually does. Was he mad about me dating his friend? Technically we were never a real couple and I didnt date his friend on purpose of course but it would be good revenge to get, as he hurt me a lot..

Some do care. Some don't. By the sounds of it, it's more likely he was giving you a dirty look because he just doesn't give a damn about you, and was maybe even more annoyed that you and his friend had broken up. I really wouldn't read too much into it.

dirtball agony auntBro's before ho's, it's an age old rule. Honestly, in your situation, it doesn't sound like anything too concerning. My best friend dated one of my exes once, but he asked my permission first. Generally it is frowned upon, but there can be acceptable times.

Sometimes we don't think we'll be bothered by it until it actually happens. It can make a relationship awefully weird. But hey, I knew a girl who dated twin brothers at separate times... Yeah, that caused some major friction.
