PlanJam agrees with MATCHinform
Last month, MATCHinform posted a series of articles on why you should not be friends with your ex. The responses to our posts were controversial, as many singles think that it is still perfectly acceptable to be friends with their ex or a member of the opposite sex.
I am happy to report that not everyone disagrees with MATCHinform’s step #2 (do not be friends with members of the opposite sex). PlanJam published a post today, How to Handle Your Ex. This article reiterates many of the points that MATCHinform already expressed.
As discussed on MATCHinform’s MySpace account, MATCHinform also takes the position that you should not be friends with an ex, even if you share a child. Your ex is your child’s parent, not your friend. You should be polite and respectful, but there is no reason for you to go to a movie, dinner, or other social function that does not directly involve your child.

Hmm, where did you find the article? Well, I guess it's a pretty common topic and perspective, but there are striking similarities. Maybe they were doing research on the web, found your’s, and used some of it as reference?
MATCHinform posted a comment on PlanJam’s weblog in response to the article “How To Handle Your Ex” on April 10, 2007 (It was subsequently deleted). The missing post can be viewed below.
