Are you cool with your ex? Or do you think they are an ex for a reason, and you don't wanna have anything to do with them. Have your ex ever contacted you during a "NO CONTACT RULE" Did you respond to them or ignore them? if you respond were you cold, rude, aloof or excited to hear back from them?
Or are you one of those who is guilty for stalking the ex after they break up with you, because you can't come to terms in accepting the breakup.
Are you alrite with your current girlfriend/wife or boyfriend/husband staying in contact with their ex?

All of my ex's whether they did the breaking up or I did, I would prefer to just totally leave out of my life totally.
If she did the breaking up, its easier to get over her if theres no contact as I'm not constantly thinking about her if I talk or see her. Also if she gets another guy, I wont be in any pain as I wouldn't find out.

If I did the breaking up, theres I reason I dont want to be with her. I dont want her in my life anymore so bye bye.

Alot of people keep in contact with their ex's. It depends if they broke up on good terms or not.

No. Once they're out of my life, they're out, but I'd still act civil and say "hello" of course should I run into them.

I said I would with my ex, but it hasn't exactly worked out all too well.

Depends on which ex it is. With a few exceptions, I am not in any contact and that is best for all parties concerned. One them said it was scary how coldly and quickly I surgically remove people from my life..... and it is correct.
However, I sometimes see or talk to the last two I had long term relationships with.
One is an excellent photographer and computer programmer, who I still consult on such issues, but will never see socially.
The other is a part time musician and last Saturday I went to see him play a new gig. As my roommate said, I am now innoculated for another decade or two. He is a good writer, fine guitar picker, but a lousy vocalist.

Too much emotional baggage ...
if you had spent any length of time with a person then
you know that there will always be something which nags at you or her
and the things that broke you up will be like the white elephant in the room
its there but you don't want to talk about it .. and it makes you uncomfortable.
So, no ... no contact with the exes ... except for being civil or cordial when necessary.

I agree with you totally! Its virtually impossible to be friends afterwards, almost always one or the other is still having feelings for the other one, if not both and it just makes an uncomfortable situation like you said, if not creates problems also.
edit* this just reminded me, I ran into my ex at the restaurant i frequent.... we both stared down at our soups....not a word was said we pretended the other was not there... A few days later i got a nice little phone call from him.. needless to say, he just created more problems....so yes no need to talk with exes... next time i see mine, Im running away! >.<

I haven't had that many ex's but the ones that I do I some what do talk to them..but not often and it isn't like we are hanging out as friends all the time. It is a more like if we see each other say hello and ask how the other one is doing...that is about it. Keep it a little bit on the civil side.

Nope, as i'd probably end up (one day and some day) banging her brains out whenever my marriage hit a brick wall or run into difficulties. I've heard and read stories like this before so i'm not willing to take any risks. The biggest problem as well with my ex was that it was more or less based on lust, though our separation was of mutual agreement. I'm happy right now and my ex is now with a new partner, keep it simple and leave things as it is...
