Let's go to the Ex!

Sorry, that's from the commercial for the CNE, aka The Exhibition, but I'm talking about something entirely different here.

What is the rule on seeing the Ex? There must at least be guidelines, or recommended courses of action, right? If they really want to 'see you', and 'keep in touch', etc, what do you do? Do the same rules as for first dates apply? Well-lit places with a clear exit strategy, planted phone calls in case you need to escape, plus no touching under any circumstances? Help!

Why do you have to make things so complicated for yourself? Just go with your gut feeling. He's still your "friend" right? Just treat him like any one of your friends. If not, then why bother?

I don't think the concern is how much he wants to see you, but how much YOU want to see HIM.

I think this all depends on your level of comfort. Maybe you're ok "keeping in touch" by having lunch, going to a movie, a quick coffee here and there, or maybe you're happy just keeping him on your group e-mail list.

Ultimately you have to be comfortable with whatever you decide. You don't owe him anything, do what makes you happy!
