Dear Poster

It is good to keep other people and there feelings in consideration but I suggest you need to relax. Be calm and focus on your new friend. If your ex does not like it or is not happy about it; well he had his chances to love you, value you and appreciate you and did not respect you or your wishes; let this be a lesson for him in life to learn from his mistakes. Don't waste to much time on how he feels and how he will react; rather focus your attention and your time on your new guy. He might become insecure and doubt your feelings for your ex if you ponder about him to much.

You have to let go and move forward; enjoy the new and the good in the present and value this new guy.

Best wishes and keep SMILING.
