So I recently got a phone call from my ex asking me if I would help her install Hid's and put a new Stereo in her car.

I have a girlfriend currently but I wanted to be nice so I told her yes. I'm kinda debating on what I shoulda said now, But my question is do you think it's alright to help your ex girlfriend with her car problems/advise?

Depends on how the break up was IMO.

I'm helping out an ex on hers next week, but the break up was mutual and we are pretty close friends now.

You're the guy in the Jim Nantz commercial, right? The one who had his spine surgically removed by his [ex] girlfriend?

"How about lavender?"

Go find your male friends and ask for an intervention.

We talk off and on but the relationship ended with her kissing some other dude but it happened my senior year in high school which was almost 3 years ago..

If your current girlfriend is OK with it and you know that you are passed all previous feelings for your ex, and of course if you want to do it, then I would say go for it. BUT... if your girlfriend wouldn't be OK with it then I wouldn't dare. Whats more important. Helping your ex (who is your ex for a reason), or keeping the current girl happy? That's what you have to ask yourself..

haha that's why my last relationship didn't work out, some girls don't understand why we like cars so much lol

My current girlfriend is ok with it :thmsup:

Depends on your feelings, can you do this without emotional involvement? Yes then go ahead, No then don’t. Regards

Unless she's going to pay you, she's just using you IMO. Tell her something came up and that you can't do it anymore, or tell her that your current GF isn't happy about you doing it, assuming your ex-GF doesn't know that your current GF is actually okay with it.

I would have to agree with the women here, especially your current girlfriend.

Even if your current GF is OK with it, STAY AWAY from your EX.

Tell her to get her current BF or go have it installed.

All my ex's live in Texas!

And if you do go ahead with help, swing by your local fish market first. Get something like a red snapper and tuck it under the passenger seat

I wouldn't do it. The more time you spend with your ex the more you will start remembering the past, good or bad and it could change the way you feel about her. Then again if you have absolutely 100% no feelings for her then it wouldn't be such a bad thing to do the install, but the fact you are being "nice" says something...

I dont talk to any of my ex's, whether it was a small fling or something more than that, they are ex's for a reason, and IMO its such a bad idea to keep them as friends because of so many reasons...

NOT a good idea.

In general - bad idea because of the current gf. this could potentially cause problems with your current relationship and some unnecessary drama.

Now if it were an O that asked for your help, then poop yes do it. Avoid this one like the bubonic plague man

I am voting a firm no on this one. Not, in a "forget her" way though, but because it's simply healthier to cease contact. Especially so when you are seeing someone else.

Didn't you say she was a compulsive liar? Watch out, you might get ****ed back in.

it depends on the girl, every situation is unique, just use good judgement and common sense

rofl, there is no such thing as a mutual break up.

****s to be dumped but not healthy to lie to yourself about it.

So with the way the poll looks I don't think I'm gonna be the nice guy.

Ex's are ex's for a reason

stay away from the EX....my boyfriend went to his ex's house to move in some stuff for the ex's aunt, and it caused drama between us. DON'T DO IT

Even if you're on good terms with your ex, you still shouldn't help her. Girls are drama queens. So your current girlfriend will probably have a problem with it.

Bring your current gf over with you when you go over to help, that way she can see that nothings going on between you and your ex, the ex still gets her car stuff done, and you get to be the good guy.
