So_Very_Confused agony auntIt doesn't really matter.. he's an EX and he's an EX for a reason... he has NO say in your current life...

I am NEVER friends with an ex... friendly and civil yeah.. but actually friends... no way.

just ignore the EX....

chigirl agony auntThis is what exes do. They don't want you, but they don't want anyone else to have you. It's all mind games. Stop texting him, he's not your friend. He's just trying to get you away from your new guy because he is miserable and wants you to be miserable too. Do NOT confuse this with him caring for you, he doesn't.

oldbag agony auntThe Ex shouldn't have any opinion on your current relationship or future ones. Its none of his business. You shouldn't even be discussing it with him

Stop taking his calls and answering his texts. Its not fair on the new man.

Develop your relationship and leave the Ex in your past where he belongs.

Honeypie agony auntSounds like he isn't being a friend and that you staying in contact with the EX is not going to help your current relationship.

It's kind of underhanded discussing your new love with your ex. Specially if your new love have no idea about this friendship.....

You need to have yourself some boundaries and well, common sense.

MSA agony auntMaybe he is not over you yet, maybe he's jealous, maybe because he can't be with you he doesn't want anyone else to be with you... there can be lots of reasons. But, does it matter? I'd just tell your ex that you are happy in your current relationship and love your current BF a lot, that if your ex respects you, then he will wish you the best.

Good luck!
