Do Virgos have more of a tendency to remain...

...friends with their exes? I ask because I've noticed this a lot amongst the Virgos I've gotten to know throughout my life. It's almost as if remaining friends with an ex becomes a necessity to some Virgos that I've witnessed. As a Pisces, I can empathize with this because when I've made myself completely vulnerable to someone, after they've successfully managed to break down some of my walls, they sort of become a part of me (if that makes any sense). There's only two (first and last) out of the five people that I've gone out with that I'd rather not remain friends with and that's due to them being cold and selfish.
I had this conversation with a Virgo a few weeks back and when I asked this person to define what "love" meant to them, this person basically told me verbatim what I've always wanted out of a relationship with someone: a best friend. This rather shocked me because ironically, this person used to be one of my "bestfriends" and to hear them say this made no sense at all as this person is not exactly "bestfriend" material nor is this person "significant other" material, for that matter, because they've managed to screw over anyone and everyone that's ever cared about them. *Virguys, no offense but spare me the "immature Virgo" ideology as I see it as only an attempt to rationalize shitty behavior.* People screw up regardless of their sun sign because after all, we're all only human right? My only qualm is when people know that they've screwed up bigtime yet they try to rationalize it, attempting to come up with every excuse in the book, to the point where the mistake they've made seems somehow minimal instead of truly owning up to their shitty behavior.
Anyways...back to the topic at hand: so would you say that some of you have a tendency to remain friends with your exes?
P.S.- Sorry for the rant. smile
I've never wanted to remain friends with any of my exes.
Once I'm done, I'm done.
The exes usually wanted to remain "friends" with me, but that is probably only so they can try to get back. I never wanted to be enemies, but it wouldn't bother me if I never saw any of them ever again.
Ever.
Ditto to that Leovirgo..
One of my bestest girl Virgo pals never has anything to do with her ex's. Same as Leo/Virgo - once she is done....adios!
I remember her dating a Sag - she ended it and I mean ended it! He kept calling and calling and calling and did I say calling? She paid no mind to him and finally he stopped. Didn't bother her a bit.
Actually, I do think that everyone can be different and there are some Virgos who do remain pals with their ex's. Depends on the person.
But whats the real reason for wanting to stay friends?..Once its over its over..It becomes the past. I have no attachment to the past..
I think some people are just too afraid to let go completely for whatever reason.
Hmm...I dunno. One Virgo friend who I know pretty well has a tendency to want to stay friends with her exes...IF it doesn't end on bad terms..
Once I cut the cord, bye-bye.
I drop em, forget em, never look back. No reason pining over something that produced little in the way of results. Unless the sex was good, but then you just think of them when no one else is around for the weekend.
