Baby with my ex...

Ok so I’ve known my ex for 8 years now. We’ve been best friends since then. We had a 3 year relationship which didn’t really work out. We just decided we weren’t compatible as a couple so now we’re friends. The thing is, we were trying to have a baby. Now we’re deciding whether or not we should continue trying despite not being together. I know that might sound crazy to literally everyone on here 😂 but we both really want to be parents and we still love each other obviously despite everything. We didn’t have any major issues in our relationship. Some people just aren’t meant to be romantically involved. We feel since we’ve known each other for so long, we can create a good co-parenting relationship with one another.

I’m reluctant to post this because I don’t think I’m going to get positive feedback/comments. I’m not really looking or asking for advice. Just wondering how many people have basically had kids with their best friends? And how many people on here have a successful co-parenting relationship?

****** who says that I’m “going to be left as a single mother”? Jeez. We’ve obviously talked about this. When either one of us finds someone else, that’ll be fine. We’re agreeing to have a co-parenting relationship so obviously that is bound to happen. In terms of how this person will interact with our child, we’ll cross that bridge when we get there.
