I had a great night the other night with friends and my ex-girlfriend turned good friend... but of course, with alcohol involved, things happened between us.
She gave me this huge ass hickey on my neck which is kinda upsetting because I work in 2 hours, but whatever.
So I ask you, the casual reader, should ex's remain ex's? Nights like the other night once in a while are ok in my opinion, but I have no intention to date her again (she's kinda nuts). What's your opinion on the matter?
Have you considered what a ridiculously vague question this is to ask the internet who has absolutely no background on your relationship to base an opinion around? Its so circumstantial...
It depends on whatever you want to do. No body is forcing you to get back together with her nor is anyone saying dont. Its all about what you think and want, thats what should be the deciding factor on whether or not you do anything about this.

My anecdote was merely related to the question, it just brought up the thought.
And how is it vague? "Do you think that people should date their ex girlfriends/boyfriends?" Just wanted to get some opinions good man.
Shrug, I'm good friends with many of my exes as my relationships usually end on good terms. It's good for casual sex when I'm single, as long as you both know what's up.
As far as for dating exes, it really depends, some people I broke up with because of them or me, others because of life factors. Whether I would date any of them again, would really be a case case basis, but in most cases the answer would be no. Even so, it's hard to give an answer because people change.
No. Exes should always date again. Always. Clearly they are only exes because they were younger and stupider. All you need is some ridiculous circumstance, like a high school or college reunion, to remind you what you were missing. You should also consider dancing for no reason while a current pop song plays in the background. Perhaps a cute talking animal will bring you together.
All of those are viable strategies to getting back together, but I think it will work best if you are an assassin that has a newfound appreciation for life and/or are in love.
What's with all the girl blogs recently? Seems like there's been a lot recently...
In general, it is all dependent on the person. Let's use you for example:

Sounds like you know the answer, so I'm kind of confused why you're even asking (perhaps to brag about a hickey?).
Anyway, since alcohol was involved I'm really not surprised. Just don't do anything stupid...

Because no one knows why you broke up with her and if the reasons were trivial, related to her personally about you and what state in your life you were in, etc.
I've only had around 5 relationships, 4 with girls and one with a guy, and honestly all relationships sucked.
Point? Stay friends. Friends help each other out. When you're in a relationship, unless you're settled down and not poppin pills and fucking sluts left and right under the carpet, then don't get into one.
I'd rather have 17 girl friends than just one girlfriend and like 3-4 girls who see guys with a girlfriend as 'high priority' either because they want you for the moment or they just don't like your girl.
Take it from a guy who has every ex as a friend. It's just a mutual understanding that there was no hate between us, just that we like to fuck around with a lot of people. It happens. You need to establish that though, if not problems arise.
My girl Friend helped me when I was stranded with no gas in another town. When I had a relationship, my actual girlfriend wasn't even in town to help me, she was out buying shit in Wal-Mart with the money I gave her.

How does that matter considering he was asking peoples thoughts on dating exes in general?

Because it is yes and no. People's answers are either going to be based on personal experience (which makes their answer bias towards their own feelings or emotions) or based on what they've heard, seen or think.
There is no definite answer, which is acceptable by all means, but the actual answer will probably always end up: It depends.
Crazy exes should remain exes, but crazy exes tend to be awesome for random hookups. Just remember that if she's crazy, your random hookup may be her engagement.

Then your answer is "it depends", no need to be like mean about it, but thats more speaking to Kennigit although despire the meanness, Kennigit is completely on point.
