writes: Is my ex-girlfriend new guy being possessive? He won't let her hang out with me when it's just me and her. I wanted to take her out to a baseball game for her birthday and she said sure, but she'd have to ask him first. Well, it's a no go, he wouldn't let her go. We still talk a lot and hang out when we're in a group with mutual friends. Miss hanging out with her ...Thanks,Mike

My ex is my best friend and this new girl doesnt like himt talking to me...I understand where he is coming from, maybe he feels weird or thinks yall might get back together, but maybe you should sit and talk with him or hang out with them together to let him see how you are and how important you are to his girl friend as a friend. It is usually difficult because most current bf's or gf's are uncomfortable with it but if she really wants to be your friend she will not let her boyfriend tell her who to hang out with...you just have to be JUST FRIENDS with her. Dont give her new boyfriend a reason to not trust her with you, thats the main concern for him.

What kind of games are you playing with these people's lives, dear? You were way out of line. In my opinion, I believe that your ex-gf's new bf is not being possessive. He's merely setting some boundries with her in what he is willing to tolerate in this love relationship. And you and your behaviours are definitely something, he doesn't like. You need to respect her new relationship, dear and back off.
You seem to be one of those exes that has a hard time saying a final goodbye and moving on with your life. So instead, you say to your ex gf's "hey, we'll see you around" . In the majority of cases, former lovers and bf's don’t make very good friends because they will always, always interfere with any and all subsequent relationships in a person's life. It is time for you to break the connection and say goodbye to her, once and for all!

You have to look at it from his point of view. Would you want you girlfriend hanging with her ex. Obviously you still have feelings for her and he maybe thinks that you could get back together as you all have a history. Anyhow, she is letting him control who she see's and thats not wise on her part. She will have to get more control. There's not much you can do unless she is willing to put her foot down and if so maybe you all need more than just a friendship if she is willing to lose her relationship for your friendship. Good Luck.

This is quite normal, some people aren't happy with their partners spending time with an ex especially when they are going to be alone, I would feel lucky that he isn't making it difficult for her to see you at all and you've still got a friendship of some sort, as I know my ex wouldn't even allow me to have my ex's number in my phone let alone speaking to him or spending any time with him, I even had to cut off the friends me and the ex beforehand had shared so there was no connection to my ex.
Hope this helped :o)
