If I did date someone's ex, I would be discrete about affection in front of them until I knew everyone involved was ok with it.
I have had new girlfriends of MY exes parade in front of me. But then, I did that to someone once too, for which i am ashamed now of my past action. We learn through our mistakes or we stay bitches. I learned...

Miss Tia, I appreciate that you read and "got it" exactly as written!
Just simple human kindness. Femme to femme kindness.
Dating the ex of a close, sister-heart femme would not even be in my own personal universe of clear boundaries but neither would hurting a non-close acquaintance by flirting in front a recently dumped or in pain femme.
That is just me.
I get that many of you have a different belief or value system.
We certainly do not always agree on the Planet and everyone is entitled to their own opinion, as is our right.
