You can get twins where they're not the same sex.

The friend Is more than interested, she's just cautious because she doesn't want to fall out with my ex.

Would make for a good episode of Jeremy Kyle.

Isn't it more likely he's posting this thread so he can cherry pick they "Yeah go for it!" responses it to justify something he's already trying to do?

Also, OP - take pics and send to your ex. That'll really get the jealousy/hurt going, assuming that's what you're after.

No of course it isn't what im after, i see my ex as a mutual friend between me and this girl, so technically im not doing anything wrong lol

I would say no. Cheated on my ex with her best friend who she is moving in with in September. It wasn't so much the cheating that upset the ex (I gather she never wanted a physical relationship after we broke up) it was rather the who.

Stay away from ex's. Run miles in the opposite direction.

Put it the other way. Your mate has just broken up with a girl, and now she's coming on to you. Would you go for it?

If I was the mate I would expect you to stay clear.

Its different for guys and girls, if your best mates ex tries it with you, then you stay clear, guy code etc.

If your ex girlfriends mate tries it on then you go for it lol

From a girls point of view, as long as there were absolutely no feelings left for the bloke, then it'd be fine. I could just see it causing problems in the friendship group if there were. She needs to be completely over her ex, or it's just going to be difficult all round.

I'd want him to be happy, just like I said, as long as I didn't still have feelings for him, or was going to get jealous whenever I saw them together. Depends on the terms of how you broke up I guess.
