writes: I was just wondering if the relationship with one of my friends (who is also my ex) is a regular type of relationship or if there is anything odd about it. We have decided to remain friends (over 2.5 years ago to be exact), we dated for 1.5 years. She dated other guys and well remained friends, we still did things together and kept our distance from eachother. We would joke sexually but never go to far with it, and sometimes physical contact. Now we are both single and well we have continued with being friends. She opens up a bit more then she usually does to me, and well the sexual jokes have increased and physical contact has increased(we are both to blame for that, if I pull her in, she will rub my hair, if she teases me, I tease her). Now she made it clear we are friends and it is nothing more, even told me she likes another guy, so I take her word. She is a big flirt, and likes making sexual jokes, so I play along (I enjoy it, since I am not interested in a relationship). But is this a healthy relationship (As Friends)?

Not healthy if one of you secretly wants more and starts reading all kinds of things that aren't there...
