AngelsFan09 Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 What do I do? I don't want to hear it or have a conversation about it. I'm not dumb, I know she was in a long relationship, so I'm not pretending that I'm the first guy she's ever gone out with. I'm fully aware of it and am completely fine with it. I'm not even jealous (in case anyone is thinking that.) We've talked about the ex in the past, when they initially broke up. I was fine with it as we were getting to know each other. She was telling me practically every single intimate detail about their relationship and feeling. She recently saw pictures of the ex and his new girlfriend on facebook. Now those picturse are bringing back memories of she and the ex. I completely understand that pictures may do that and I'm perfectly fine with it. I'm not upset or anything. She asked whether she was prettier than the ex's new girl. I said yes as she is way better looking than the new girl. BUT, she wants to talk to me about the ex, the relationship and some of her feelings. I just don't want to hear it. It serves absolutely no purpose to the relationship. I told her that I don't want to talk about her ex, and if she needs to talk to someone, she should talk to one of her girlfriends or just anyone of her friends. Did I do something wrong?
Lauriebell82 Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 No you didn't do anything wrong. How long ago did they break up? Cause honestly she's probably not healed. I was in a long relationship, then a couple months later started dating someone else and all i did was talk about my ex bf. The guy thought I was hung up on him and broke up with me after like a month. Fast forward about 6 months and I met my current bf who I have been with for over a year. I don't talk about my ex or think about him at all. Honestly I think your gf still has some unresolved feelings that she needs to deal with. You need to have a talk with her and say how much this is bothering you and that you want to know if she is still having issues. It honestly doesn't sound like she's had enough time to heal, and you may have to give her that time.
StaringContest Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Did I do something wrong? Yeah. What you did wrong was you got involved with a chick who isn't over her ex. At least you told her you don't want to hear about the ex instead of being a doormat and listening your gf go on about some other guy. But the fact that she needs to talk about him to anyone and she's comparing herself to his current gf shows she's not over him. You're a rebound, and I think you'll be better off either ending this relationship or just taking it for the rebound that it is. And next time a girl goes on and on about her ex and wants to tell you every little detail of their relationship, realize that it means she's not over him yet and move on.
