Should your current BF/GF be mad if you're friends with an ex?

I get jealous sometimes, but then I take a step back, if they liked that person in that way then they would be with them not you.

My boyfriend used to get jealous I'm sure, because I used to always say I hated my ex, he always said well don't talk to him then. But when me and the current boyfriend broke up I got closer to my ex. And now i'm back with him we're not really close.

I trust my boyfriend 100% but I would allow him to be friends with his ex, as long as he didn't blow me off for her, and rather spoke to her than me etc.

Like someone said jealousy is part of it, some people get wayyyyyy more jealous than others. I know sometimes I can get really jealous about stuff and it's just really something that you can switch on and off. I think it depends about the ex bf/gf thing depending on how close friends they are, I think in the back of your mind you'll be thinking they used to be together what happens if it all starts back up again!

If there's no trust in a relationship then there's no point having a relationship

Was going to write this and then I saw your post

I think if they trust you they should be okay with it and understand that you wont cheat on them with your ex, but if there is no trust their just going to get paranoid which cause friction between the couple which could lead to a breakup.

If your partner had been broken up with by their old partner then yes I think you're entitled to some jealousy because obviously there's a very good chance there could be some unresolved feelings towards that person.

I wouldn't want to be close to an ex, anywho, if I knew it was going to bother who I'm currently with!
