Is it normal to not trust your girlfriend with her ex.

Ok so here's the deal, My girlfriend dated my best friend for like two months, they ended it, but still care about each other, he just returned from basic training and they've started to text and hang out a little bit, not just the two of them, other people are around, and she says they will never have those kinds of feelings for him again, but I still don't really want them to be close, am I over reacting or is it normal.

Is It Normal?

  • That depends. Do you trust her?

    If it really bothers you explain it to her and ask her to maybe not text him all the time?

    I dunno. If my man didn't want me texting someone then id stop. It's a matter of respect.

  • she says it herself, she's not alone with him AND she doesn't have feeling for him. that'S all you need to know. and even if they eventually do start feeling for eachother, that'S ok, they're allowed to be attracted to anyone they wish. i don't mean you have to take it, if so, just let go, it'll be easier on you.

  • Jealousy is normal in humans. But lack of trust in a relationship means your relationship isn't too stable, which is also normal. If you really are serious though, you two have to learn to trust one another.

  • I agree with the comments above, but there has to be a balance. You can't really just expect your partner to drop any and everything about their own life for you. Trust is a choice and its up to you to give it. Sure, they are charged with keeping inside an agreed behavior and respecting you, but they could be as good, perfect and innocent as a baby doe and it wouldn't mean a thing if their partner still didn't trust them.

  • Totally agree with the comment above.

    Try talking to her, if she can't compromise with your feelings then it really isn't fair on you. Good Luck!

  • Dude.. There's boundaries and she's crossing them. If you say they have feelings still, that's because its in your gut and your gut feelings are almost always right.. You need to tell her what's up, she doesn't want to listen.. Leave her.. Why the hell you dating a homie hopper. That's always a stupid move.. It makes it 10x worse because it's your friend.
