We're truly the best of friends, we can tell each other anything and work through it no matter how bad they seem. . . But there's one subject I'm just too dam scared to talk to him about.... his ex! Basically, his ex has been texting my fella, asking him back, confessing he still loves him and yada yada. Obviously, I have a bit of issue with that, me and my guy ended up rowing because of it and he told his ex to keep away, but yesterday my guy tells me he rang his ex, told him he really missed having him around and wanted to be friends again! But yesterday his ex said no because he dint want to get in between me and my fella, but the thing is my guy is angry about the fact his ex has finally agreed to back off! I'm really confused... I love my bloke, the relationship is definitely a stable one and we're best mates too! But I can't get my head around this whole situation with his ex. Please help! It's driving me insane!

Have you met the ex boyfriend? Maybe the three of you could get together and you could tell him how you feel about it all, and ask him how he would feel if it was the other way round.
Daring I admit. Now would I dare do it...

In other words they are both mutually and emotionally conducting a form of foreplay with each other. And unfortunately, you are the 'monkey' stuck in the middle of this game. Tell your bf to lose contact with the ex bf or he can have him. Set a tough boundary and don't allow yourself to ever be held hostage in their hurtful situation again. Teach others to respect you. You take a risk of loss, but look at the big picture. You don't have a very formidable, committed bf , do you? If he's going to be with you now and in the future, your bf and his ex bf, have to accept the results of their break up. Both of them have to break all ties. Both of them have to accept it's over. It's time to let go.
