I became good friends with his girlfriend, and realized she's my ideal woman in every way. Would it be wrong for me to keep my friendship with her after they break up, and do you think there's ever an acceptable amount of time after a break up to date a friends ex? This girl is really one in a million.

okay tell your mate how you feel and if he says it fine wait about four weeks after he's dumped her. For the to weeks try to know her better so yuo know a bit about her befor you go out with her

Hey There,
There's nothing wrong with still continuing a friendship with this girl just because bob dumps her..seeing as you have strong feelings for this girl id give it a few weeks and then once bob is finally over her ask him whether he'd be ok about you dating his ex..if you think she's the girl for you and you both like eachother then don't let her slip away..but the decent thing to do is to have a word with bob and see how he feels about the situation ..the last thing you want to do is loose both of them..
GOOD LUCK & KEEP US POSTED

I personally have always stayed away from my mates ex's it's just a no go area for me but if it's something you want to do I would suggest just pacing yourself regarding this even though he might end the relationship everyone still needs sometime to process and get use to the idea, not only that you don't want to end up her rebound guy.
Good luck :o)
