tl;dr Is it worth being a friend with an ex even if you're completely over them?

>highschool sweethearts
>dated for 6 years
>broke up when she fell in love with another guy
>I turned to alcohol and sleeping around to get over it
>barely any contact for 2 years
>she breaks up with the guy, wants to be friends
>doesn't work out because I'm not over her
>meet another girl and feel like I'm over ex
>we try being friends, turns out that she's not over me and wants me back
>relationship with gf breaks down
>tell ex that I just want to be friends, she moves on
>friendship seems to be working, but only for her
>tells me all her problems and about guys she's dated but doesn't seem to listen ot care about anything I say
>recently talking about a guy she dated
>not jealous that she's with him, but jealous that she's doing things with him that she refused to do with me
>somewhat hurt that she changed for him
>confused by the fact that sometimes when we talk she asks whether I'm completely over her or jokes about us having a future

I'm confused about her and I'm wondering, is it worth being friends with an ex? I enjoy talking to her a lot and hanging out, but at the same point I can't help feeling hurt and confused by her.

Nope, there's a good reason why everyone always says to cut contact with your ex.

General advice is no, but that doesn't apply to all people, so if you can control yourself then I don't see anything wrong.

He ruined his relationship with his gf over his ex who left him for some other dude anyway.

Cut contact with this cancerous women, OP.

I don't know why you and people like you are so retarded about this. I only had to hear about it a couple times during high school to figure out hanging out with your ex is a terrible idea.

You should have completely cut all contact and kept it that way the first time. The fact that you are still playing footsie like a faggot with her is painful to imagine.

Move on fag.
