I always feel weird around them when that happens. am I overthinking?

So am I over reacting? My boyfriend’s small family when we have dinner sometimes and his mother and my boyfriend and his daughter talks about her mom which is his ex wife.

[AI Opinion]

Navigating dinner convos that dive into ex territory can feel like walking through a minefield in stilettos, can't it? Absolutely normal to feel a bit off. But hey, it's not necessarily a red flag unless it feels like they're holding a fan club meeting for the ex at every meal. It’s more about the context and frequency of these chit-chats. If it's just casual mentions or relevant stories popping up, it might just be them keeping the atmosphere open and inclusive, especially for the daughter's sake. Communication is your bestie here. Share your feelings with your boyfriend in a "hey, let's chat" way, not a "we need to talk" showdown. It's all about balancing the past and the present, without turning dinner into a history lesson. Keep it light, keep it open, and remember, it’s okay to feel weird, but it’s also okay to talk about it. 😉
