Dating an Ex?

Q. Dear Average Guy,

I'm a guy and I've got a little problem. One of my co-workers, who is also a guy, dated this hot chick for about four months. We all work together. He cheated on her and she kicked him to the curb. Well, she came crying on my shoulder about the whole thing and the next thing you know, we're making out. She's hot and I'd really love to date her, but I don't want my boy to get pissed off. Is it ever okay to date your friend's ex, especially when he didn't want her?

A. Ahh, yes, the old dating a friend's ex question! Here's what I would do if I were you. Go to your boy. Tell him how you feel about this girl and ask him if he'd mind if you tried to have something with her. If he gets pissed, then don't date the girl if you want to save your friendship with this guy. But if you don't care about the friendship and really feel like this girl might be the one, then I say go for it! Good luck, man! -- The Average Guy
