Is it normal to kiss your ex?

Depends.It depends

Yes, people do kiss their exes, especially when feelings or familiarity linger. Whether it’s a good idea depends on what you both want and whether it could complicate moving on or a current relationship.

Kissing an ex isn’t unusual. You already know each other, and a familiar moment can bring back affection, attraction, or just a little breakup-era confusion. People may see it as harmless, a step toward getting back together, or something that makes moving on harder.

The key is whether you’re both clear about what it means and comfortable with it. If either of you is hoping the kiss will restart the relationship—or if one of you has a current partner—it’s worth talking before anyone’s feelings get tangled.
