We ought to stay away from our friend's ex's EXCEPT (and this is just my opinion) those cases in which the friend and the ex didn't date very long, had a reasonably un-messy break up, and neither of them is still in love with/has feelings for/hates the other. If I ever thought about liking a friend's ex, especially a close friend, I would ask her what she thought--if she wasn't cool with it, I'd stay away because good friends are harder to come by than dates.
