Can I date my friend's ex-girlfriend? This is an eternal question which raises storms in the minds of men all over the world.
They wonder if there's some kind of code they should go by or should they just follow their heart. Imagine the situation in which you have been telling your friend how lucky he was to have a particular girl in his life. And now that the two of them have parted ways, you find yourself attracted to the same girl! So you're in a bind.

Now let us start with accepting the fact that there is some obvious amount of risk involved in dating your friend's ex. You can easily become villainous in the eyes of not just the friend whose ex you are dating but also in the eyes of the members of your pack. But if you think that dating your friend's ex can lead to something fruitful, well, then that risk might be worth it.
Put the Friend First
Starting a relationship should be a pleasant part of life. It should not clip your social chords. You don't have to seek the permission of the ex. But make sure that the previous love connection is completely done away with. Do not hesitate from talking to your friend about it. Now if it's totally killing for your friend that you are dating his ex, trust us, it's not worth it and it's plain inhuman. Just because you have found a new love interest, you should not let go of the friendship you have cherished for so long.
Don't Rush Through the Things
Your friend broke up yesterday and today you were seen romancing with his friend. Do you realise how gross that will be? Your already-devastated friend would get even more miserable. If you are interested in your friend's ex, go slow and steady. We know that you've just got your golden opportunity and you can't just waste it. But you can certainly be decent and work out things in a systematic manner.
Break Up Should be Proper
What's the point of dating a girl who is still not over with her past? And it couldn't get worse if the past happens to be your good friend. If she still hasn't gotten over with her ex, be patient and wait for that to happen. You shouldn't appear desperate. This will only damage your own prospects with the girl.
