My friend broke up with her fiance a few months back. It seemed like a bad break up although the detail of events is a bit sketchy but to be honest i think it is more my friend's fault than anything. Anyway her ex has been wanting to meet up with me, i have no problem with him and i think he is a nice guy so i see no problem going for a friendly coffee or whatever. However given who he is i have been avoiding the meeting giving him whatever excuse to postphone/cancel. Now he has requested we meet up again and i agreed but will this count as betraying my friend? mind you i don't know the guy's true intention but on my part i have no feelings for him what so ever, he is not my type and there is no chance of anything developing. So is it okay for me to meet up with him?

The protocol is to stand by your friend, if not it will look like you secretly wanted to be with him all along. Im just thinking this through from your "friends" perspective.
