What are some things to consider before dating a friend’s ex?
Cupid’s Advice:
If you’re starting to have feelings toward your friend’s ex and it is mutual, follow these tips before it goes any further:
1. Talk to them: Obviously they are your friend’s ex for a reason. It is best to sit down with them and have a heart-to-heart. Find out why their relationship ended the way it did, and dig in to who they are as a person.

2. Time: Make sure it has been longer than just a few months since your prospective beau and your friend have broken up. You do not want to be a rebound to them or be seen as an incredibly bad friend.
