Poll: Would You Date A Friend’s Ex?

Here’s the deal. A few months ago, I was dating a guy I was really into. One night, at a party, a friend of mine approached us.  Except, she didn’t seem to want to talk to me—she flirted with my man while his arm was wrapped around me! She even asked for his email address and then fumbled for a reason—she wanted to add him to her comedy show’s e-blast.  I’m so sure—at least wait for the relationship to die before you swoop in like a vulture.  But since I didn’t want to cause a Jerry Springer-style scene over it, I shrugged it off and thought, Nice try sweetheart, but he’s leaving with me.

A couple months later, that guy and I broke up and she friended me on Facebook.  Feeling guilty for making fun of her and even sillier for holding a grudge on someone who clearly wasn’t a threat, I decided to accept her friendship (on the Internet at least). But Facebook is full of all sorts of TMI—profile picture changes, updates on favorite books, and the one that got me: accepted friend requests.  Months after the chick hit on my man—okay, my ex-man—he accepted her friend request as well.  I did a little web-stalking and found out that they’re now dating. I’ve always thought that I didn’t care about exes and friends dating (like when Denise Richards hooked up with her friend Heather Locklear’s husband after they split), but now I’m rethinking my position. What’s your verdict?
