      My bf was talking to his ex too, regularly. I asked him why and he said that am petty, nagging and lack self-confidence. This crushed me because I didn't expect him to say that. To make matters worse, he compares me to her.

    100% agree with you. If there's no children, there's no reason to stay in touch. Doesn't mean you have to be enemies but what is the point of being "close" with each other. Not to mention one party always still has romantic feelings. Just messy and unnecessary in my opinion.

      I had a bad breakup over this because he was doing it in secret and lying about it. I was gone for 6 months and he reached out to me continuing to say that it was her that reached out and needed help with a problem she was having (a one off)??
      Yet, prior to this he told me he had broken up with her years ago because of drinking and never wanted to have anything to do with her. It was all lies.
      Found out he was giving her money, paying closing costs on her property, giving money to her mother, and I also believe they officially never broke up. She simply moved in with her mother to take care of her 5 years prior. Here he was secretly acting like the boyfriend and taking care of her. She didn’t know about us. He kept that hidden. He was playing 2 sides of the coin. I don’t think he was over her.

But then for a while I realized that I was betraying myself and on his part this is disrespect for me, so I choose myself, it's cool how you know your own worth. I gave him a week to decide that he stopped communicating with her and cut off all ties, otherwise he will lose me once and for all, I want to be desired and the only one, no matter how much I love him, I will choose myself

    I hold the same view. I believe it is inappropriate to be friends with former exes AND fwbs while in a relationship. I would never do that to my partner because I know it would create unnecessary and unhealthy suspicion. I would never want to do anything that makes my partner feel insecure. Thus, I expect the same from my partner.
    I had to end a relationship because of this issue but it was for the best. Some people are okay with their partner being friends with exes and others are not. I am definitely not okay with it. Know what your standards and boundaries are and never settle for less people!

    I broke up with my boyfriend last Monday. We dated for 10 mons. Our relationship went well, I met his family and all relatives, the thing went smoothly. His Parent honors me as a member of the family... I was getting excited about the future with him. In the last 3 mons. He starts to break our date sometimes, not keep up to see me every Saturday. He said it sound stupid to follow my expectations. Start to have some weird attitude as Irritable, anger, depression, argue, fighting, shouting... Distant me. Many red flags show up. And I found out that be still dating and talking with his Ex never stop from beginning dated me. He admits that. BUT said. He and his Ex only friend. I am very Shock, he as creating me and betray me, after 7 days broke up. He still texting me but very less. And I don't reply to any messages from him. I don't want suffering and worries. What are they doing behind my back? I am in extreme shock. Tell me if I did the right decision?.

    Whether it's an ex girlfriend that a guy is hung up on, or hes a cheater, or something else is going on that makes him emotionally unavailable, the result is always the same: heartbreak.

    My ex fiancé maintained a close friendship with his ex. They worked together, had lunch together, he confided in her about our relationship, she watched his dog when he visited me (we were long distance.. states away). He insisted we all double date. She had a partner and he was all cool about this friendship. My fiancé’s family invited her to all family events from Thanksgiving to Xmas and weddings. He insisted on inviting her to our wedding too and all of his ex girlfriends including some friends with benefits. He told me that after we married, he would invite them all to our bbqs and parties. It was becoming unbearable. He said I was “crazy” and “unreasonable.” They had no children together. In the end, he broke up with me over the phone because he said that he didn’t want an instant family (I had two small children and he had never been married. We were 48). I don’t know what happened with him and his ex girlfriend but I assume he is still single and this is probably one of the reasons.

      khadsinthecut been down this road. There’s a reason he keeping contact. If your thinking of getting back with him . You need to find out if he’s in love with her.
      Depending how long ago they broke is also key . To why he feels the need to talk to her.
      It’s really disrespectful to you. If he living the pass . He can’t build a future with you.
      My X couldn’t stop talking to his X . I told him it was disrespectful and make me uncomfortable. The reason I was uncomfortable. Was because my gut feeling was right. He was seeing her behind my back.
      To this day he wants back. But he’s still around her. I’m not being someone back up plan.

      Have you ever met her or talked to her.
      I ask my X if I could meet or talk to his X .since she’s a important part of his life. He asked why!
      So I can become friends with this other important women in his life.
      You know what his answer was!? I can’t do that ! I asked why . He ignored me and switch subject. He is very protective of her. His best friend not even allowed to talk to her unless he’s around . Funny thing is they went to school together. But his best friend can’t have her number. I even talk to his best friend in private. He has no problem with that.
      So there’s definitely something he’s not telling me. I no longer trust him.
      I would leave him alone ! Work on yourself! Don’t waste time on someone who’s confused! I lost a good man by trying with my X . Invest in someone who’s 100% into you

    Hi Ryan! A question regarding this situation (obviously mine): I can't really seem to find a reasonable advice for excactly this anywhere? Here goes: If a man used to be with a woman who had kids (not his kids), they broke up, he now has a new girlfriend (me). He still wants to have contact with the kids (whos mother are dating a new man). Do you think the kids would be better off still having this ex(man) in their future life, plus their mothers new boyfriend, and do you think the man's current relationship (mine) would be better with or without him having contact with his ex's kids (not his kids) in the future? Would you look at this situation the same way as if this man and his ex did have kids to raise together (as you mentioned as the only reason for a man to still be in contact with his ex), or is this situation different, with them both having new partners in their lives?
    To make things even more confusing: We both have kids from earlier relationships, who naturally are getting to know eachother.
    I would love to hear your thoughts about this. Maybe things will be more clear, as I don't know what to think or how to deal with this situation.
    Xoxo MissM.

I found out when I got curious with my dreams for 7 days that my husband is talking to woman, so I got curious what my dreams is telling me, when he got home from work I tried to see his phone and I found 1 hr 5 min. talked, its a long conversation isnt it? he deleted but he did not know I saw it already and copied and the worst thing he said he has OT. I feel frustrated and totally disrespectful. He promised but the following they talked again 3x a day. I can't imagine.

    Ryan! I only just recently discovered your videos and I’m so happy with all the content you’re delivering. I wish I’d found them sooner! Whether I’m looking for a relationship or not, I love your energy.
    This video made me think of a situation I was in with a past relationship, so I’m curious to hear your thoughts on it.
    My boyfriend had a FWB thing going on with his best friend’s sister some time before we got together. I found out about it a couple months into the relationship. Even though he said it was over, for a long time, I couldn’t help but feel super uncomfortable whenever she was around. But what could I do? She was his best friend’s sister! ...so she was around a lot. In a lot of ways it made me feel like I couldn’t trust him, not just with other women, but with the way he handled his social situations in general.
    Going forward, what’s the best way to deal with feelings of jealousy or distrust in future relationships?

      Don't let that ruin a relationship, instead meet his ex and join the friendship. Just because their friends doesn't mean there doing anything wrong. Respect his right to friendship, and love him anyways. Trust him and allow him to make some of his own choices. That is apart of what true love is.

I know it seems suspicious but you cant blame them for your lack of trust. I would never just throw everything away over that. Instead of just leaving someone the moment theres one hicup, will leave you with no one. Real love take work, and requires an effort to fix things you may not be comfertable with. so if you are uncomfetable with a spouse talking to an ex, either talk to them about it or learn to accept the fact people have the right to freindship.

    My boyfriend and I have been together for two years and a half and at the beginning of our relationship he was still catching up with his ex girlfriend (his ex and I know each other) and I felt really insecure. Since he met her, she had been opening up to him a lot about her family problems and that's mainly why they kept on talking to each other every now and then after they broke up. The problem was that he didn't tell me about her in the first place and I found out by accidentally looking at his phone when she texted him. Then, we talked about it and he told me that he wanted to help her feel better since he knew she was going through a tough time. I stepped back as I felt sorry for her. Three months later, her brother texted me and asked me to go out with him and his sister. Assuming that we hardly knew each other, his texting me was so weird. Also, he started telling me about his sister and how well she was doing with her studies and dance lessons. I started feeling so awkward and then I decided to have an honest conversation with my boyfriend, which evolved into a huge fight. He showed me their messages and I found out that he was too emotionally supportive towards her (I mean they didn't communicate like normal friends do) and the most frustrating of all.. he hadn't told her that he was in a relationship with another girl! Since then, he stopped catching up with her because he realized that he was wrong and he didn't want me to feel insecure and jealous. Even though this happened a long time ago, sometimes I still think about it and compare myself to her... Can you help me?

    I just want add an alternate point of view. While it's true that most people in contact their exes for sketchy reasons, I've had some relationships where a partner is still friends with an ex, and they they have become good friends of mine, even after my initial contact with the guy has drifted off. The key is, i think, is when the ex is not hidden from you and you even get to meet them in a positive context it's less likely to be harmful. People approach things differently and when a guy is respectful of his ex, i feel that he will be respectful to me. I am close friends with a guy i used to date, and tbh we should only ever have stayed friends as there was no physical compatibility. All i want for him now is to meet a good woman, and when he does, depending on how she feels about it, i am fully prepared to keep a respectful distance because i want them both to be happy. Just my take on it.

He and I have been dating 4.5 years. They broke up a little over 5 years ago. She finally got a new boyfriend about a year ago and told my boyfriend a few months ago "we can't talk anymore." I said clearly she had bad intentions the whole time! Even when she seemed "ok" and he was trying to give her another chance. She told him she missed his d--- for crying out loud! How was that not an instant block? He finally blocked her this past July...after I insisted on it. 😒

He’s also super into sending nudes etc. and I’ve always been more into the real thing, it’s not doing much for me. But he said he’s done this with his ex as well and honestly idk what to think… Makes me feel uncomfortable and pressured to do something I don’t really like but I think he’s into it regardless of his ex. But it makes it weird that he’s done that with his ex too. Just invites comparison… Also, I’ve been struggling with EDs and body dysmorphia for about a decade so I’m not super into this randomly taking sexy pics thing cause I don’t feel attractive all the time…

He still has small gifts from her and letters from when he was in jail. I was okay with them talking, they were friends since childhood and dated a long time. I try to be understanding but some of it makes me uncomfortable. When i asked if he still had feelings, he was adament about them being better friends than dating (it was an abusive relationship). Its been almost three years and she still seems too important to him in my opinion, am i being blind? I really don't know how to or who to talk to about thia. Its my first relationship, so I'm not familiar with how far these ex friendships should go and whats appropriate.
