Girlfriend keeps bringing up her ex. What should I do? (Page 2)

Question

Okay, so I’m going to keep this short and to the point. I’ve been dating this girl for about 4 months now and she keeps on bringing up her ex. She brings up bad stories about him and says she’s glad that’s done, but then she brings up memories of them together and laughs. This hurts me because I know that if I were to bring up stories of women from my past she wouldn’t like it. It also hurts me because I know he wants her back and that he’s had sex with her in the past while I haven’t (I’m a virgin). The cherry on top is that I know that he treated her not very good and I’m doing my very best to treat her right and I’m getting done like this :(. I’d go to the moon and back for her but she keeps bringing him up.  Also keep in mind, I started dating her when she was coming off of a breakup with the guy. Thank you for taking the time to read this and have a blessed day.

Sounds by like she’s not over him. It was also bad that your relationship started so soon after her last one.

melanieeeB · Answer

She is probably not over him yet. I would confront her and maybe take some distance from dating, until she is over him and ready for you or well not

Listen, you are the rebound dude that helped her just trying to heal from her break up with her ex.  I would advice you to end this relationship.

Next time it happens tell her if she misses him so much maybe she should go back to him. Then walk away.

Be direct, "I'm sick of hearing about your fucking ex"!  If she can't get the message she is not worth keeping except as a Fuck Buddy.

Be honest and tell her outright to stop talking about her ex. Disrespectful much. Show her you're different, use whatever strengths you have.

Sounds like she’s still attached to him. Is she a Christian also?

Set boundaries and make it very clear that this is unacceptable. If nothing changes you need to follow through

That's a huge red flag bro. That would hurt anyone in your position. That shit is unacceptable and disrespectful. Dump this bitch.
