Drew Barrymore stays close with all her exes.

"People are always like 'Is it awkward?' I'm like, 'No: because if you can't be with somebody, it doesn't mean that the love has to go away -- it just transfers to something different that works at that point in your life,'" she tells Ellen DeGeneres in an interview that airs today.

"I'm really close with some of the people I've been with in my life because they've had such an impact on it that I don't want them to go away, you know," she adds.

Do you think these stars look better after breakup?

She calls ex Justin Long -- her He's Just Not That Into You (out Feb. 6) co-star -- a "really, really good friend.

"We hang out all the time and people are like 'Are you getting back together?' And, we're like, 'No we're just friends.' He's just the sweetest guy."

She's also considering working on a project with former flame Fabrizio Moretti.

"My ex-boyfriend Fabio , [whom] I was with for five years -- he's the drummer for The Strokes -- and I was just showing him my new movie, and we're talking about doing a song together. I mean that's just the way -- if you're fortunate enough -- that life can be, and it's so harmonious," she says.

Can you believe these people dated?

    When I was a kid growing up and would hear about some girl that would remain friendly and in good rapport with all her ex’s, it was assumed that she was the type that would get her way.
