writes:Me and my best friends ex have been rather flirty with each other for a couple of months now; we got pretty drunk one night in a evening establishment and very nearly kissed, although one doesn't remember who really initiated it and it has not been spoken about since. However, since then we have spoken non stop in a somewhat flirty manner but she has claimed several times we are just friends but I was wondering if this was a facade to protect ones image and reputation given the sensitivity surrounding her being my friends ex.Now I do understand that in actual fact we might be just friends with which I am fine with, however, I am just curious to know if there is a possibility that it is facade? Thank you in advance for any responses

 You are a terrible friend. Why entertain this with a friends ex? He obviously means nothing to you if you risk hurting him so much

 I agree,
1. she has told you SEVERAL times you are JUSt friends - she doesn't need to pretend or keep up a facade with you since those texts are just between the two of you.
2. definitely bro-code - you don't go after a BEST friend's ex! Ever.

 Bro code. Never date your friends exes. And stop hanging out with her when she is drinking. Drunk consent is Not consent.

If not, and you are certain of what you experienced then it wouldn't be wrong of you to question that. If the girl is ashamed or concerned about her reputation then maybe you could explain to her that her being an ex of your friend puts you in a similar position and so you are just trying to put your mind at ease about the whole thing. Perhaps this approach will make her feel more comfortable about the situation - because chances are, shes been thinking about it also! Goodluck !

 I doubt it if she's told you numerous times you're just friends.
Question is, why are you creeping around your best friends ex?
