A female Ireland age 41-50, anonymous writes:

i dont know if this should bother me but it does, im seeing a guy now 3 months but he calls and texts his x nearly every day and she does the same, he is away from her 4 years now and says they are just good friends, but he tells her everything and this upsets me, its not the fact that he has such a close relationship with a woman its the fact that they spent 4 years together and she is an x, she also calls looking for favours and he does the same. its like dating two ppl, dont know how to sort this out!

DV1 agony auntI agree. She's the past, and you're his future. He can be friends with her, but friendships are supposed to be different with your ex. It means being civil and possibly seeing each other once or twice a year to say hi. It doesn't sound like he's moved on from her, and you're getting caught in the middle. You should find someone else, without emotional baggage...

Tell him to push her into the background. You are the present and she is the past. He can keep in touch but not as often. If he doesn't like it then consider just how long you want to continue like this. Not long, if that was me.

tell how it is.

well if they've been apart for 4 years then they probably are just friends but i can see why you're annoyed. talk to your boyfriend and sort it out. but be careful what you say because he's known her and been friends with her for far longer than he's known you. if you aren't secure in your relationship with him then thats what the problem is- not that he has a close friend
