According to popular opinion, dating or getting married to a
friend’s former lover is considered one of the coldest things one woman
can do to another. In the vast majority of situations, dating a friend’s
ex spells trouble, especially (and almost always) if they were deep in
the relationship.
Being in a romantic relationship with a friend’s ex is something
most good friends would try to avoid like a plague, but is it always the
backstabbing and thoughtless move we make it out to be? Here are the
responses of some celebrities on this sensitive issue;
One man’s food is another man’s poison – Bose Oladimeji, Actress
Yes I can. He might be God sent to me and I will love him
faithfully.. One man’s poison is another man’s food. My friend may be
fed up with him or she probably found someone else. That doesn’t mean we
can’t be lovers.
I won’t do that – Doris Simeon, Actress
No, I would not date my friend’s ex especially when I am aware that
they once dated. I don’t think it’s right because that’s where our
loyalty as friends lie. Doing that would likely destroy the trust and
friendship we have.
It depends on how close we are – Ruth Eze, Actress
If she’s my close friend, I can’t because it will affect our
friendship. Some friends are more like family, so I won’t do that. But
if we are just friends, I would not mind because what she doesn’t like
might be my speck. So, it really depends on how close we are as friends.
I will – Awele Odita, Actress
I will since they are no longer together. He might turn out to be the right person for me.
I can’t, I won’t! Singer– Annette Cookey,
The truth is this – life is unpredictable. Nonetheless, one must be
very careful of whom to date or marry. I personally cannot and will not
do that. The moment a friend introduces her boyfriend and it is
verified that they are dating, he instantly becomes a no-go area. People
need to understand the word ‘friend’ first. Only then can the meaning
be applied.
Except I didn’t know they dated — Sandra Anthony, Actress
No, I can’t except I didn’t know they dated.
Why not? There’s no universal law against it – Mimi Ubini, Actress
Yes I will. Why not? Is there a universal law against it. Of course, I will date and marry my friend’s ex, if the love is there.
Yes, if it’s God’s will- Blessing Patrick, Actress
Yes, I will if it is God’s will. If God wants us together, I don’t
see any reason why I can’t since they have both ended the relationship.
People may frown at such, but if your motive is right, then you can go
ahead.
