Staying friends with an ex is not a good thing to do. Not only is it going to be awkward for the one who "got hurt", but once you get involved with somebody else it will furthar makes things difficult for the new person trying to feel comfortable with you hanging out with your ex.
Staying on good terms, well that is a whole different thing. With the exception of one girl, I am on good terms with all my ex's. This means that when I run into them it isnt awkward at all and we share friendly smiles or a quick convo to catch up. It DOESN'T mean that I call them or vice versa or hang out with them.
Ex's are ex's for a reason. Don't burn your bridges, but certainly don't keep them close. Trust daddy p9 on this one.
