I believe that a true friend would honor that code. What do you think?

I honor it 100%!

The ones saying EFF the Code are selfish individuals who have no self control or consideration for their friends feelings..all good tho' because what goes around comes around if ya know what I mean.

I think it's stupid to pretend that there's a universal code based on your gender.

If my friend had a messy breakup with someone, I obviously wouldn't date them, because it would cause her pain. If she and a guy came to a mutual agreement to break up and she didn't care, I wouldn't refuse because of some made up code.

Basically, it means like honoring your friendship. So yeah.

Not really. Arbitrarily making up rules that apply to every friendship between females is silly. Perhaps it's because my school was so small that if you didn't date your friends ex from time to time you literally couldn't date anyone, perhaps my friends and I just had a different relationship. Honoring your friendship doesn't mean following some "code"...it means honoring your friend in the manner that they choose.

And what i'm saying is that you shouldn't date your friend's ex. (not saying that you have or anything) but really. You just don't do that.
And you're pretty silly to think differently.

Why? If your friend doesn't care, it shouldn't matter. Respecting your friend means respecting their ACTUAL preferences.

Yeah. But still. You shouldn't even think about going after the guy in the first place. Even if your friend says it's okay.

Seems very arbitrary to me. I don't do arbitrary codes of conduct that do not relate in the slightest to my relationships with my actual friends. Plenty of us have dated each others Ex's and there was no issue with it, because we were capable of using our discretion instead of just assuming our friend would be upset about our dating someone they'd gone out with.

Right. Which we did. We actually stopped and thought about how our friends would feel instead of automatically assuming that they'd feel unhappy. In many cases, our friends really didn't care. They dated the guy for 3 months and got bored with him, so they broke it off. If it was a case of the guy actually being a skeeze to them or the break up being messy, we didn't do that. Instead of using a hard and fast code that completely ignored the situation, we used our discretion and came to a decision.
