OK so I've always heard that the number one rule of flirting/dating is that guys don't want to hear about any of your ex's right? Well I was talking to this guy at work that I like while we were on break. I reach into my purse and check my phone only to realize that my ex has left me a text and a voice message claiming that he "misses me" after like 6 months of not talking to me.

I made a disappointed groan and the guy I like was like "Whats wrong? Who was that?" I just told him it was my ex and tried to brush it off, but he just became more interested. He kept asking me to tell him about it, gave me hugs, and even offered to beat him up for me.lol Even a couple of hours later after I had forgotten about the situation, he brought it up and asked if he had left me anymore messages. What does this mean?

He did what every normal guy would do, get upset.

It is bad enough worrying about losing your partner to someone new but it is more dangerous to know that an Ex is trying to contact you. you already had a relationship with that person (of couse the relationship died, logically he shouldnt worry at all after all, he is the upgrade right?)

But it is harmless jelousy and actually you should take it as a compliment, I am sure your new partner truly loves you, just let him know there was a good reason you left your "Ex" and that there is no way in hell you were going back to him, especially when you found a better man (your current guy). That should boost his ego a bit. Hey we all have ego's.

Give him a big kiss for loving you that much, ok? then all is fine. :-)

Answerer I wish I could delete my response, I was watching TV and reading your questions/story at the same time. I assumed it was "your guy" wondering about your ex.

Since I actually read your question now (lol) it seems the guy you where talking to is definitely interested in you and probably didn't realize you "had an EX" and you suddenly appeared available.

He was simply wondering(and it isn't wrong) if you might be going back to your ex (becoming unavailable). - 4 months ago

Most guys do hate hearing about a girls ex. I for one hate it because to me it feels like she still thinks of him. But there are guys and situations where that rule does not apply.

In your situation here it seems that you are not actually romantically involved with the guy or he is actively pursuing you. You are in a work scenario so that rule does not necessarily apply.

Also there are guys who are just plain not socially adept at dating girls and if he likes a girl will hold onto anything that can create a connection between the girl and him. This is not necessarily something that a guy is adviced to do. I know a guy for example that just loves giving his shoulder to cry on to any girl who needs it with the belief that he can gain their affection in that manner. He is still wondering to this day why every girl just wants to be friends with him.

Either that or this guy is just plain nossy.
