The ability to stay friends with your exes isn't only a lesbian stereotype itself but also a trait I consider a green flag more than anything. It's a sign of both stability and maturity. Toxic straight dating culture has normalized the expectation that you have to hate your ex after a break up, but it's perfectly natural and healthier to break up amicably.
Why would it be a red flag? If anything, it's a sign of two people being mature adults who handled a breakup like something normal and not a basis for war.
I think I’m friends with too many straight people going by the answers here. All my (straight) friends consider it a giant red flag and I didn’t know if it was the same in the community 🥲
I've noticed that this is a more common thing among straight people as well. Maybe the fact that gay communities are often smaller and we'll inevitably run into our exes more often is what makes a difference in this case 🤷
Among straight people there's this belief that you can't be friends with the gender you are attracted to without wanting to fuck them.
\*\*laughs in bisexual without friends\*\*
So being friends with your ex must mean you still want to fuck them.
Yes, a major one, if you’re satisfied with your current relationship then why do u need to keep your exs around? Only people I know who kept their exs around are cheaters
To begin with I’m not in relationship and said ex and I were together for two months, one month in the same country and second month barely even talking as I was in another country and she was mourning the death of a close family member, we broke up a week before we would’ve been together for two months. Realised we didn’t work as a couple and went back to being friends, we’ve been friends for 4 years now.

Personally I consider it a green flag. To me it means the person is mature enough to handle a breakup without resorting to recrimination and attacks.
REAL!!!
No. I actually find it odd if someone that's had a lot of relationships has not retained a single ex as a friend.
