I agree with the advice I've read thusfar. If you don't have consent from your best friend (or even if you do) your relationship will never be the same. Think about this: if you date his ex- and he still has some underlying feeling for her, your friend will be jealous. If you date his ex- and he can't stand her, he won't want to hang with you anymore, especially if he has to be with both of you or listen to you gush about her.
If you go ahead and date this girl be REALLY, REALLY, REALLY sure that things will work out between you. If it doesn't, you could lose 2 friends. If it does, your friend might come around and realize that he helped 2 people find each other, and things will be cool.
