If I know the girl at least it will make a bit more sense. If I don’t know the girl in the first place, there is no point bringing her up. I doubt I will ever be introduced to her.
I just get feed a lot of information that I don’t really need. “Oh my ex loves to recycle” or “my ex says I don’t love her”
It feels like a chore to talk to these guys sometimes. I understand that you are heartbroken/ not over your ex. But constantly mentioning them to me doesn’t help your situation at all. If you want to get back together with your ex then work on it. You mentioning them 24/7 will not change anything.
