Unless he needs to keep in contact with his ex to share custody of the children, I see no godly reason why he would need to keep in touch with his ex-wife or ex-girlfriends or women whom he had a romantic relationship with in the past. It would smack of utter disrespect to me if he did.

It would also mean he has trouble moving on.

In my opinion, jealousy is a game
for the slow witted to play.

I know many couples who were married and just BF/GF and they broke up and remained friends. There is nothing wrong with that. Jealousy is the same as Insecure. If you are jealous, then you are insecure in your relationship and you should look into your own heart and figure out why you feel the way you do. Communication goes a long way. You should talk about all this without getting upset or mad so you both come to understand each others feelings in the situation. I can tell you form experience. I was married for 30 years before my divorce. You always love that person, although you may not be "In Love" with them anymore.

No, it keeps them occupied and out of my life. Thank gawd for other distractions.

I misread the question.

There are boundaries that should be respected. That goes all ways around, not just one way.

Only if minor children are involved. Otherwise it is disrespectful. And maybe they should also be an ex...

Yes, similar thoughts from me.

An ex is a ex for a reason,
it should be left in the past.

You know I have only parted with partner with bad feelings. And that is because I allowed him to beat the hell out of me for several years before I got my self respect back and left. That one I forgave and he doesn't cross my mind except for times like this.

I am sorry to me if I meet an EX on the street I am going to greet them if they call me I am going to talk to them. I wish them well.

I have also yelled at an EX about a year or so ago, that he should go for it because the person he was interested in was adorable and sweet and kind and would be perfect for him. They just announced their engagement.

To me except for two men all the men I have ever had in my life were wonderful men. Just because we didn't mesh as a couple doesn't change the fact they are wonderful men. I hope the best for them.

For the life of me the hatred for an EX that didn't do anything but not work out perplexes me to no end..They were wonderful when you wanted them what changed so drastically.. I am not talking about abusers or cheaters I am talking about people that it just didn't work out.

An ex is an ex for a reason
In some cases lots of reasons
No matter what....
They are out of season

I refuse to be a part of the drama and I don't even bother with the people who choose to keep left overs for longer than the expiration date on the package. When it's done it's done.
