Women Give Their Honest Opinions on Dating Their Old Friends’ Exes

Ashley Blackwell

If “breaking girl code” was a person?! Women recently gave their take on dating their old friends’ exes, and let’s just say… some of the responses were quite surprising.

While what happens in (and out) of friendships is supposed to stay in friendships, actor-comedian Lil Duval sparked the contentious discussion after posing a question on Twitter, which prompted the girls to expose it all.

As expected, some good, some bad.

“Ladies if one of your old friends fumbled the bag on a good man then years later he try and holla at you. Would you? (U and the girl don’t talk like that no more),” he wrote in the tweet.

Following the debate starter, of course, ladies of the bird app weighed in as the fellas watched… and even commented, here and there.

This is what they had to say…

You don’t wanna experience a good man that your old friend, who you don’t fw, fumbled on? You literally don’t want to have a good man in your life? Well… I’ve seen it all and it’s not even 9am. Lol.

— 🇭🇹🇺🇸Fabi J.Stark★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (@Fabij5) July 3, 2022

Yes. I’d take sex off the table though and get to know him. If he brings her up in conversation multiple times over the course of dating then I would stop it and move on.

— Love_shove (@shove_love) July 3, 2022

Depends on time and age range. If they was a HS fling and it wasn’t nothing to your friend…cause us girls know who our friends really REALLY liked and who was just one of many…then why not. Y’all grew apart and you and dude have crossed paths. No foul
