A male United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

My girlfriend is still talking to her ex-husband. She says they want to be friends and thats it nothing more.

I tried to be ok with it but everytime I see them emailing eachother it really bothers me and makes me unhappy.

Is it unfair for me to ask her to no longer talk to him?

Whatever you do dump her! Its just the tip of the iceberg. I was in the same situation and luckily I got out before it went any further. I would run and dont look back!

They divorced because they both were unfaithful. they were married and divorced in less then a year and we have been dating for about 9 months and are living together. I asked her yesterday to cut off communication with him because i tried to be ok with it but it bothers me and hurts to see. She said she wouldn't stop. I said I could not be with her and it would either be him or me and she said she wouldn't chose between me and a friend.

They email thru myspace a couple times a month. and he has made reference to coming and visiting

eddie agony auntHow often do they email each other. More information about the break up would be helpful. There are never any definite answers only possibilities. Anything is possible. We have to roll the dice sometimes and give our partners the option to screw up. If they love you, they won't. It's the "not knowing" that hurts. Trust is important. How would you feel if they met, by chance, while out at a bar one evening and spent half an hour talking? Would that bother you?

Frank B Kermit agony auntAer there kids in the picture? Is there a reason she MUST be friends with the ex? Does he have nude photos of her that he is going to use to blackmail her with? If not, then I would see this "friendship" as a red flag. How long have you two been dating? If only for a short time, just keep your guard up. If you are dating for a long time and only if you see it getting serious, then YES, you can have the boundary of no communciation with the Ex.

rockelle agony auntHe is her ex-husband. And as friendly as they may seem to be with each other there is a reason why they are not still married. The bad had to outweigh the good. Is this an everyday thing emailing/calling? If it is an occasional hello I wouldn't worry. If it is a constant thing then I wouldn't make a big deal but I would speak to her about it.
