"Last week, we were all caught off guard when Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson decided to end their two-year marriage. However, it looks like the gorgeous pair plans to remain friends. According to People Ryan and Scarlett had a &amp;amp;#8220;friendly meal&amp;amp;#8221; together on Friday night at Blue Ribbon, a restaurant in New York. An anonymous snitch tipster shared that the two laughed and smiled while dining together and that the former couple &amp;amp;#8220;just wanted to connect and have a friendly chat&amp;amp;#133;They just wanted to sit down together. The tone was light and fun despite the untruths that the media is working up. They aren&amp;amp;#8217;t reconciling. This was just two people who were married being civil and friendly.&amp;amp;#8221; So often when celebrity couples call it quits, we hear how they respect and care for each other and will remain the best of pals.

And for we non-famous folk, there&amp;amp;#8217;s not nearly as much expectation or pressure to stay chummy after breaking up. That being said, I do have a few friends who are still close to former partners. One friend even invited an ex to her wedding&amp;amp;#8212;and the ex brought his fianc&amp;amp;eacute;e! Are you still friendls with any of your exes? Do you think it&amp;amp;#8217;s possible to just be friends with someone you were once in love with? Is your guy close with any of his exes?
