He's having an emotional affair with an old fling!

Question - (20 December 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 20 December 2008)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I have been dating my boyfriend for over 2 years. In the beginning everything was great. Then I find out that he was having somewhat of an emotional affair with a past "fling" (3 hour phone calls, text messages) a year and a half into the relationship. He said he would stop talking to her and did and deleted her from his myspace and phone. Recently however, I found out that he requested her again on "myspace". My trust has been completely rocky ever since it all began. I don't really understand why he thinks it would be ok to attempt to bring her back into his life. I give him whatever he wants and our sex was frequent but now down to once a week if that. I've had millions of talks with him and at the time he'll act like things will change and for a while things are good and then we're back to square one again. Is he not into me anymore? Would he rather just be single?

A male reader, anonymous, writes (20 December 2008):

hi......being friends with an old flame is a tricky subject.....obviously people should be allowed to be friends with who they want, but should also respect the relationship they are in. It seems its an ongoing issue and he is not taking you seriously, so therefore you need to make him take you seriously. I would tell him how upset you are and i would say you are taking a break from the relationship while he decides which is more important - this might be a week or a month. The time apart will hopefully make him realise how much you mean to him, if not then you have got your answer. This may seem quite an unsettling thing to do, but much better now than in another two years time.........good luck!
