This term refers to a former spouse in which the person speaking declares that they still have a sexual relationship after the divorce. THis is a spin-off from friends with benefits.

When you're definitely broken up now for sure but you're still doing it.
Becoming exes with benefits ultimately meant there was no real change to my routine except I was having more sex and fewer fights about dishes.

Like friends with benefits but between two people who were previously coworkers. Also known as ECWB.

Not to be confused with Coworkers with Benefits
“Hey Ashley, since we matched on Hinge, would that make us ECWB if we banged?”

“ECWB? What’s that?”

“Ex-Coworker with Benefits, obviously. It’s a new lingo.”
