My girlfriend is upset that her ex boyfriend is dating one of her friends!

Question - (9 December 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 9 December 2010)
A male United States age 51-59, anonymous writes:

My girlfriend found out recently that one of her (former) friends is seeing one of my gf's ex boyfriends, and she was quite upset about it.

My gf broke up with this guy about two years ago. My gf claims she dumped him after he tried to pressure her into group sex, etc. But, I do know she had strong feelings for him at the time, even though they only dated about 3-4 months.

My gf was quite moody and upset for about 1-2 weeks. She told me she was mad at her (former) friend for asking out her ex on the basis that this violated her "don't date your friends' exes" code. But, I suspect that she must still have some feelings for this guy or she wouldn't have been so upset. Also, I heard from other people that my gf said bad things about her ex to her (former) friend, and said bad things about her (former) friend to her ex in an effort to break them up.

I do know this guy has no interest in my gf anymore, and there's no chance they'd get back together.

Would most women get upset about a friend dating an ex they broke up with 2 years ago, even if they didn't have any feelings for the guy? Am I being silly for even thinking about this?

honestly I think most women would be bothered by this , i know I would its like stabbing you in the back. even though your gf has moved on with someone else(you) I am sure it still stings cause its her friend not some stranger her supposed friend but I dont feel its much to worry about unless she dwells on it longer then she already has.
