El_Flesh:
Why not?
The chick knows who she likes.
What are you supposed to do when you like someone?
Quash it, quell it and KILL it???

TheEvilDog:
Unwritten man code* - You don't just go and try to ask out a friend's ex-girlfriend. You talk to your friend first, see if they are alright with the idea, and then you go develop butterflies in your stomach.

*As Jeph pointed out, there is no such thing as the unwritten man code**
**Actually, there is, but we're just not allowed to talk about it outloud

First, Martin has no more say in Dora's love life than she does in his as they are no longer a couple.  And secondly, you must be a man for the unwritten man code to apply and Tai is not not. And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules.

Fuck that bullshit, your friend doesn't own their exes. The only reason to not ask out a friend's ex if you find them attractive and they act like they're interested is if you're not single, yourself.

If your friend can't handle their ex dating someone else, that is their problem, not yours.

pwhodges:
But that doesn't mean, if your friend has a problem with it, that you necessarily want to trample over their feelings, does it?  Sometimes going with the obvious just isn't good enough, if friendship means anything.
