Can you be a close friends with someone who once your lover?

Sticks48 comments on Feb 13, 2019:

One of my very best friends is someone I lived with for nine years. I was good friends with another lady I lived with in the seventies, but she started dating this Pepsi VP, and he didn't like the fact we were friends and couldn't believe had we lived together, so our friendship ended. And there was one FWB who was my friend even after she got married. That is only three out of, we won't go there, but it is possible. It generally doesn't last. Life will usually get in the way.

The federal governments conviction rate as a whole is over 95%. The feds don't take things to trial unless they know they are going to win.
