I am pregnant and despite not being planned we are both happy about it as are madly in love and want to marry and will soon be living together. My outlook: I am not a believer in not being able to be friends with exes I believe it depends on why you split up and how long you have been split up.Problem: I have a male friend (briefly dated couple of years ago) who has been split up with his girlfriend for about 6 months and wants to start dating again. I suggested speed dating but he doesn't want to go alone so we agreed I would go (not lead anyone on just drink and mingle) but when I asked my partner he said he wont be happy with this as he is an ex. I dont see this as a problem the point of the evening is to get my friend mingling with other single females maybe connect with one of them. I just thought it would be a fun night out give me the chance to dress up and go out as I don't go out very often and would like to get out occasionally before I am too big and then have a family to care for. should I go?

I certainly wouldnt drink whilst pregnant I just meant chatting to people at the bar I have never been much of a drinker to begin with. Also my pregnancy is not the concern it was mentioned purley to highlight my commitment to my man the point being I am going to accompany a friend in finding a date so with marriage and children in the plan for me and my man and my ex also having had relationships after me and the aim for him to find another more serious and special why should it matter he is my ex

 I'm sure she is aware that alcohol is off limits. There are plenty of "virgin" drinks she could have, and I'm sure that's what she meant.
That said, I would invite your bf to come along. Tell him what you said here... This is going to be the last time you get to dress up and go out for a nice long while. Going anyway with him disagreeing may cause problems. I wouldn't recommend doing that.

As for going, why dont you invite your bf along. If you and the ex are just friends, there should be no prob with your new one joining you.
