Adele! We know you think it’s the mature thing to do–to do friendship again with an ex-boyfriend. But maybe this particularly venomous former lover ain’t the one with which to even try. Remember her monster hit record 21? Yeah! That is entirely about the same douche she’s hanging ’round again.

“We’re becoming friends again,” The Independent reports she said at a recent London show. “It’s alright, I know what I’m doing. Enough time has gone by.”

How much time is enough to safe pursue friendship with an ex-lover? Is it even a good idea to try ever? And most importantly, will this relationship negatively affect Adele’s totally, awesomely, emotionally-frenzied songs? [via The Independent]
