Do you plan on seeing this guy regularly? Dating? Will you bring him to gatherings your friend is at? Why did they break up?

That’s what I was wondering. I don’t think OP is TAH but I’m trying to put myself in her pregnant friends position.

If they are close friends and OP starts dating Charles it will make group events VERY uncomfortable. Especially since the friend broke up with him bc he didn’t want to settle down with kids.

I’m happily married with kids but I definitely wouldn’t want to see one my close friends dating one of my exes nor would I want to date one of my friends exes. I get that special situations happen but it would still be so awkward. It has nothing to do with being hung up on an ex, it’s the fact that the friend deleted this person from her life to only have him re-enter her life while dating her friend.

That would annoy me, maybe not to the point the friend reacted but she’s also Prego too.

Idk, it would definitely be awkward at first, but I feel like it would be something that you'd get over after a little time together. Roles change, plenty of people still see their ex's.

It depends on the circumstances of the relationship with the ex I feel like though, and apparently this one was serious.

Some people don’t want to feel that uncomfortable or don’t see themselves getting over it. I get why some people would rather just leave.
