anyone else hate being compared to your bf’s ex?

if that happens lol

when we got together everyone would see us together and they’d be like “oh what happened with you and cassie?” or “oh she’s so much nicer than her!” or “wow she’s prettier, but don’t you miss her?” or they’d same we look alike, have the same hair, same body it was just weird.

it was alllllways something!

now it’s been about 3 years and 2 babies and people are STILL talking about his ex and comparing us. like what! i really didn’t mind it but now it’s like.. okay.. anytime now we can stop

backstory: they dated 6 years and lived together no kids, he ended up leaving work early to surprise her with flowers and stuff and he walked in on her and a guy in bed. and she harassed him for his furniture to move out and wiped his apartment clean after he paid for everything.

how would you guys react to this? i used to brush it off because i thought it would hurt him to think of bad memories. but why are they still talking about it?

he also hasn’t mentioned her our entire relationship so i know he’s over her, we had one talk about her and that’s it. he basically told me what happened, how much it hurt him but he’s past it and doesn’t hold anything against her but has her blocked on everything since.

I would just start being rude, Ive never been compared to my husbands ex (she also cheated on him & was his first love) but if somebody did compare us I would be rude & say something to make them feel uncomfortable. I would probably respond like well if you miss her why don’t you reach out to her instead of bringing her up every time we come over

He doesnt compare me but his mom and sister do, like rude.His friends, even when I'm right there will ask about her Like are you fucking kidding me? I dont even understand it because apparently she was awful to him besides cheating on him with his best friend and stealing 80% of this stuff

That would definitely annoy me, it’s rude to do it even at the start of the relationship but especially 6 years on! They need to let it go.
