I'm actually really good friends with my ex to the point where we see eachother atleast once a week for dinner or a movie.
Just because I don't want to live with / marry / have children with the guy doesn't mean I don't enjoy his company. We were both aware however that the relationship wasn't going well, when things ended we both knew that was it, it was over, there were no hopes of getting back together and no harsh feelings.
I think that's the main thing about having a friendship with an ex, you need to be able to accept the idea that you're never going to be in a romantic situation with them again. When you get to the point you can accept the thought of her with another guy you're ready to be friends. Til then you're just setting yourself up to be hurt.
