Is it really that rare? I know many ex-couples that remain friends...

I don't know any that have truly remained friends. They'll keep in touch, sure. Check in on eachother, and all that, but they're not friends.

The few couples that I've known that even tried to maintain a friendship after a break-up, ended up falling out of touch once they got into another relationship.
They've all told me in hindsight they were just hanging on to their ex as a "Plan B", and I think that's incredibly common. More than that I think people tend to use their ex as an emotional parachute, if you will, without even realizing it. Like ripping off a band-aid, except they do it so slowly there is no pain.
