No

"Yeah, I've been texting the last woman I had sex with for the last couple hours. But it's nothing. I love you, baby (even though I'm ignoring you while texting said ex... for hours)." Doesn't exactly fill me with butterflies about our relationship...

The only exception I might make is if he were divorced and they share parental duties. Otherwise, it would never make me feel super great, and he would have to have a super good reason (i. e. "I am blocking you, and our relationship is over"). I mean, if I were texting my last boyfriend, laughing and bantering back via text, while in a relationship with a new guy, that just seems messed-up?

For me, texting an ex is a dealbreaker, except for parenting-related reasons or to run off a persistent ex-girlfriend.

[HawkPerception]

Exactly that. Your logic is honestly such an attractive trait. You ever think of making videos online for people about relationships? I think you'd get a massive audience for that even as a side hustle.

@HawkPerception Thank you! Dr. Pepper Potts Podcast on People... LOL. I'd be scared to stick my neck out there. I appreciate the vote of confidence, though!

@TheRealPepperPotts "Yeah, I've been texting the last woman I had sex with for the last couple hours. But it's nothing. I love you, baby (even though I'm ignoring you while texting said ex... for hours)."

Was that a real experience? That sounds super messed up.

[TheRealPepperPotts]

@ManOnFire Fortunately, not for me. But for some women I know, that is indeed their experience. It's so sad.

No. You should move on with your life and close that door permanently.

Not if you want your new partner to lose respect and trust for you. An ex is an ex for a reason , none on from them period , How would you like it if your new partner was still in their exes life? It’s disrespectful and shows what kind of person you truly are , Selfish , because you are only thinking of yourself by keeping an ex in your life while pursuing someone new

[OlderAndWiser]

Would you tell your current girlfriend that you are texting an ex? Why not?

[ihateTaylorSwift]

It's cool but don't be sus about it
as long as u don't meet up with them too
behind your
current partner's back
And secretly include other actions
That'd be wrong and
a totally different case
but as for simple communication in general
It's Fine
Talk is just talk

[alice55]

not ok except if you have a child with this ex or if they're nurse / caretaker of one of your family member.

[dudeinohio]

Definitely not. You should not be friends with an ex. For me it's a deal breaker.

[KingslayerC]

Not in my relationships, but other people are free to be cucks if they want to.

[michalpl00]

No it’s weird and disrespectful.

[RageBabe]

Nope. 👎

[Dongie]
