User blog:Cpt. Carebear/Some advice?

I've been talking to this guy I like over the past few days, we were close once, he was my best friend's boy friend. But here's that hard part, I like him, but I also like my friend, and she hates his guts. Like seriously hates him. He's coming up for the weekend and I don't know who to hang out with, the guy or my best friend. I don't see they guy much nowadays, because he goes to a boarding school, he used to be in a public school but moved. And I'm excited about seeing him, but I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. If I hang out with this guy, and his friends, my best friend will think I ditched her, and I don't want that to happen. Cause she'll end up hating me as well.

So...can I just ask, when is it okay to date/hang out with your best friend's ex?
