Should I date my ex-friend's ex-husband?

Question - (19 November 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 19 February 2009)
A female Australia age 51-59, *bigail121212 writes:

I was reasonably good friends with a girl for almost 10 years until almost 6 months ago when she tried to cause trouble between myself and a guy that I had started seeing. Her and her husband have broken up in the meantime and he has been showing a lot of interest in me. I always liked him and thought of him as being a really decent guy, but never looked at him as anything more than my friend's husband before. I am still seeing the other guy but we do not seem compatible. I have told my ex-friend's ex that we should wait until he sorts through his marital issues as I dont want to be the person who gets in the way of his children's parents resolving things. He assures me that its over, I also know they have had troubles for a long time, but Im still wondering if us getting together would be just plain wrong?

lovesalias agony auntyes! I think that you should steer clear for at least 6-8 months after the final DIVORCE has been granted. Even though she is your ex-friend I am sure you still care about her. 10 years is a long time to throw a friendship that may be able to be reconcilled. If you get with her husband (and you don't know that she doesn't still love him) that would just add insult to injury. I would definatly ask her how she would feel if you started to take a interest in her husband before you do ANYTHING with this man. Just my opinion though.
