My boyfriend still talks to his ex??

Question

So I recently started dating this guy we have now been together for a month and a half. And I noticed one day he got a text from his ex (If you guys are wondering he’s 21 and I’m 19). Now, long story short I told him I’m not comfortable with them still talking and he said “I told her not to text me anymore so it shouldn’t be a problem”. He has her blocked on every social media but he won’t block her number. I talked to him about it today cause I noticed that she was still texting him. I told him again that I am very uncomfortable with it and it irritates me. It irritates me because they dated for two years and they somewhat ended on good terms. he told me he doesn’t want to lose her as a friend but I think he needs to get over that and block her. I will never be okay with them just being friends and I told him that too. I just need advice.. Am I over reacting or she he block her?

Answer

You have no control over who he speaks to or who he’s friends with. Yes I’d be a little uncomfortable with the situation but I’d never make him block someone out of insecurity. You have to trust him if you want a healthy relationship . If it’s strictly platonic then you have to accept that. If not then don’t be with him. She’s his ex and he’s with you now. And I’ve learned that in the end it does no good to act crazy, or make your partner cut people out of their life. If they’re going to cheat they’re going to do it regardless. You shouldn’t have to force him to do anything

Answer

I think he should block her. Why block her on everything but her phone number? That’s just suspicious to me

Answer

Either he needs to stop talking to her or you need to say

Answer

I personally think you’re overreacting just a bit. But at the same time maybe not. No I wouldn’t want my man texting his ex however I trust him 100% and know he wouldn’t answer her ever.

Answer

i don’t think you’re overreacting at all! I think this is 100% unacceptable because if roles were reversed, he wouldn’t like it either. i personally believe if a man truly likes/loves you and sees a future with you, then he’ll do whatever to prove it. I actually had a sorta similar situation. My boyfriend has a child with another women (which i have no problem with because they had the child before we had ever met) the problem was the fact that when we first started dating, they lived together. At the time we had only been dating for about a month so i felt like it shouldn’t have bothered me so much but we fell de quickly for each other i couldn’t help but be a little worried about them living together. Now im not one to hold my tongue so when something makes me uncomfortable, I’m speaking up. so one day i sat him down and told him im not going to take him seriously if they live together because it’s kinda making me look like the fool. He told me he understood where i was coming from and literally that night, he told her she had to leave. Ever since then we’ve been stronger and even more inseparable than ever. i just think if a man is serious about you, he’ll prove it. I say try sitting him down and telling him how you feel and be a bit serious so he truly knows where you’re coming from.

Answer

I don't think you're overreacting but at the same time if he's not willing to help you feel more comfortable then you can't force him and you either need to learn to deal with it or move on.
