Search Results: should she ask him if he wants to have sex

My boyfriend was a few years ago (4 years ago) in a relationship with a girl for six years. They were on and off almost the whole time. Apparently great sex and he worshipped her. A lot of things he told me in the beginning that has stuck to my head still and I really wonder if I’m a second option after her since he’s bragged and spoken so extremely highly of her. She is very attractive so I don’t think he was over doing it either. I do think he really does find her extremely attractive perhaps much more than me.

There was a girl who wrote him once which he replied to mentioning me which is nice. I said he should block her. He said no I want to know if she’ll write me again. I took it as he wanted to keep the door open and I was upset about that for a long time. He said if I really think she’s something then we should all meet for coffee and I’ll know there’s nothing there. I was taken off by that and thought wow ok there must be nothing then since he’s so confident.

Another time speaking about the ex he was with for six years. I asked what he’d think if I wrote her, he got really pissed and said I’d never see him again if I did.

I find it weird such two different reactions. Would you say he’s protecting the ex and hopes to keep that door open just in case for another setback?
