I don't feel like I can trust my girlfriend.. any advice?

Me and my girlfriend went out for 12 months and she started talking to some other guy and ended up sending half-naked pictures messages to the guy. I found out and broke up with her. But now we recently started going out again after about a 6 week break. I feel like she learned her lesson, but at the same time, i feel like she might talk to other guys behind my back since it happened before. I have no reason to really suspect, besides it happening before. I don't know how to trust her again though, it is really hard to.I don't feel like I can trust my girlfriend.. any advice?
I would go talk to your girlfriend...a one-on-one, heart-to-heart sort of thing. Don't be mean about it and blame her, but make sure you do get your point out. Maybe ask her why she did it in the first place, or if she liked/likes the guy, how she knew him...so basically, get inside information. Then I would explain to her how you feel. EX!!!: I feel ___(sad, mad, upset etc) when you did ___(action) and I want to fix it..how can we (not you...we) fix this?


After that, make sure you tell her that you really do have trust in her. physiological, after a while, you will begin to really trust her again. It may take a while to finally be at the place where you two were originally, but take your time and don't rush things, and you should be set :)...but most importantly while doing this, make sure you do tell her you love her (if you do)...thats the most important thing :)


hope this helps. good luck!


-maryI don't feel like I can trust my girlfriend.. any advice?
It's hard, and nothing is going to make it easy. But you have to make up your mind whether or not you can trust her again, and whether or not she really did learn her lesson. If she would be willing to talk to guys again, then she most certianly didn't: and she is the type of girl that will go behind your back no matter what you do.





Either way, the only way you can get over it is by making up your mind and committing to it. You don't want to waste a bunch of time with her, if all you are going to do is be depressed and miserable thinking about what she ';might'; be doing with other guys.

Can I ever trust him again? Please answer. I need advice.?

I found out last week my boyfriend had been chatting on line with other girls. We live together and were planning on getting married in the future. Anyways, some sent him pics. I found out he was showing himself to one girl on a webcam. He said he had no intention on ever meeting these girls. But, I'm still really upset. I don't feel I can ever trust him again. We're supposed to start counseling next week. Is there anyway I can get over this quicker. It's all I think about and I'm very depressed now. Thanks for any advice.Can I ever trust him again? Please answer. I need advice.?
Did he say if he was going to truly stop this behavior?


In my opinion, he must have had a slight interest in


meeting other woman if he was sending his pics


over the net. YOu need to find out what is going on


with him, even if he had no intention on meeting these


girl, there is still no reason for him to show himself over


the webcam...Do you think he is looking for other female


attention? How long have you been together?


email me at my_min_tin@yahoo.com if you wanna


talk moreCan I ever trust him again? Please answer. I need advice.?
You probably will never trust him 100% again. It's up to you whether you want to stay with him or move on with your life. Trust is something very hard to get back once it has been lost.





Good Luck!!
dump him. if he's doing this to you now, imagine what he will do when you guys are married?
Sorry to hear about your troubles. However my policy with guys is that you can look but not touch. We all have a dream of having a guy who is so mesmerized by our qualities that they never look at another women but it's simply not realistic - a guy is going to look. I agree though that it would concern me that he finds the need to talk to women on a webcam. If he is exposing himself physically online, I think that you should definitely get into a deep discussion on why he feels he needs to go online for that sort of activity.... is it exciting?.....does it give him something he feels he can't get in the relationship? Maybe if you can get some insight it will resolve your fears or atleast allow you a resolution. My personal concern is that you are already going to counseling and you aren't even married yet! Also it seems to me that when a guy is online talking to other ladies, he has some intention of finding another one. If you want to stay with him, and develop trust - you both are going to have to lay your cards out on the table honestly and all the way. You have to get a solid reason on why he is chatting with other girls, and tell him your feelings. There needs to be some sort of compromise of what's acceptible to you and him in this relationship. If no comfortable compromise can be made then it's obvious that it isn't going to work out. Most importantly, don't back down on what works for you. If you are going to marry this man, you need to ensure your happiness...and you cant secure happiness by going along with what he demands, or what will substain the relationship temporarily. My most important advice to all my friends is not to fixate on something, but contemplete and seek solutions. Try to set your stress and sadness aside and look at the problem, and dig for what you truly feel. Good luck to you!
Hey grl,...Just put the shoe on the other foor .....what if guys were sending you pics and you were get ';n all lathered up and showing yourself nude on the web cam......think about it ??!!!!





what kinda person are you then ....and could you even trust your self?





marraige might be there for .......you .......but he certainly is NOT ready .
Oh, why on earth would you want to still marry this man?? He is showing you who he is and who he will be years from now. Counseling will not change his character. Rethink the marriage thing.
What he is doing is a real life experience in stead of reading Playboy. So, if you don't mine him looking at those kind of magazines you should not have to much trouble forgiving him for his fantasy with an on-line girl. And as he says he'll never meet this girl.


All but 1 guy I chat with live to far away that to meet them is impossible for me to do. I have a steady boyfriend, but I still chat with them, and still look for others to have chats with about politics on-line.
In my experience, once trust is broken, it is never fully recovered. And if you can not trust your partner 100%, it's time to move on.
I know that would hurt, but if you live together give him rules to earn your trust back.... do away with the Internet, and let him know that it was completely unacceptable and you need him to help you trust him if he wants to marry you!!! I would tell him the next time You catch him on line chatting it would be over completely and maybe that will make him realize how close he is to pushing you too far!!


good luck!
I believe that counseling is for people are in a committed relationship, like marriage. For people who are simply dating, I think it's futile. Even if he wasn't planning on meeting any of THESE girls, it doesn't mean he's not meeting w/ other girls he meets along the way, in person, say at the bar, grocery store, or anywhere else ... Men who are committed %26amp; love someone don't do these sort of things.





Whether you may ever trust him, well, certainly that's up to you, and it would take time, but I wouldn't waste mine. And people who ';plan on getting married in the future'; usually don't. Either you're getting married, or you're not. If you love someone %26amp; know that you want to spend the rest of your life w/ someone, then you do it ... you don't postpone it to some unknown future date!





I wish you the best.
IF HE HAD NO INTENTION OF MEETING THESE GIRLS WHY WAS HE SHOWING HIMSELF ON LINE TO THESE GIRLS WHEN HE'S GOT YOU AND HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE MARRING YOU???????????I DON'T BLAME YOU I WOULD BE UPSET TOO YOU BETTER THINK THIS THROUGH THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE YOU BETTER RETHINK THIS IF IT WERE ME I WOULDN'T BUT UP WITH IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE HE'S READY????????? YOU BETTER PUT HIM IN HIS PLACE AND PUT YOUR FOOT DOWN TELL HIM A THINK OR 2 JUST HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON FOR?????????? AT LEAST YOU FOUND OUT HOW HE'S LIKE BEFORE YOU GOT MARRIED SORRY I HOPE EVERYTHING WORKS OUT FOR THE BEST FOR YOU..................BEFORE YOU GET MARRIED YOU SHOULD HAVE TRUST IF YOU CAN'T TRUST HIM DON'T MARRY HIM IT'S ONE THING IF YOU KNOW ABOUT IT AND MAYBE THESE ARE SOME PEOPLE HE KNEW WHEN HE WAS GROWING UP BUT IT'S NOT HE IS EXPLODING HIM SELF TO THESE OTHER WOMAN AND I THIN HE DOS WHAT TO MEET THEM MOVE ON A FIND A NEW MAN HE ISN'T GOING TO CHANGE YOUR TIME IS PRECIOUS THERE ARE MANY FISHES IN THE SEA HE'S NOT THE ONLY MAN IN THE WORLD DON'T LET HIM DO THIS TO YOU THIS IS DIS- RESPECTFUL TO YOU HE IS NOT WORTHY OF YOU THERE IS A MAN OUT THERE JUST LET HIM FIND YOU
Whoa..I'd say go with your gut on that one.





Many of us here can give you advice on what to do and some advice might be great but the reality is we don't have to live, sleep, interact or trust this individual you do.





If you feel you can handle what he did and move passed it then stick by him go to counseling and hopefully have a great marriage and invite us all to your 50th. wedding anniversary.





If you feel in your gut that this will happen again counseling or not, anti-trust is very damaging to any relationship. True he screwed up that trust (speaking for myself I'd say it would be hard to trust him again, I feel I would always have that doubt if he was still doing those actions or worse) why in the hell did he feel the need to talk to someone else or show himself to anyone else.





But again your life, your thoughts, your feelings are what matter here...go with your gut, whatever you feel go with that, you know him better then we do, and you know what you can and cannot live with.
Well if i were you i would leave him alone because he's going to do it again i always say once a cheat always a cheat. If u feel that you cant no longer trust him u should just let him go because constantly thinking about it will just stress you out more. Please don't ever believe the fact that he was just talking to other females on the Internet on a friendship level it had to be more then that for them to be sharing pics
RED FLAG!


i'm glad you are going to counceling... his behavior is out of line and disrespectful. he has no plans to ever meet them? he already has!!! just like you and i have! there is the connection and its been made.


be cautious of him and good luck in counceling!
well


everyone makes mistakes


and that does not make us untrustworthy





you still do not have anything agaist him


he told you he does not intend to meet them


you have to believe him





forgive him noe he will forgive you when you need forgiveness
No, don't even bother, if he does this to you now before marriage, then he will probably only do worse things later. If he has started, it is just a rolling ball of snow. Maybe he can promise you he will change and will show it for months or maybe a year until you fall and change your mind. But only it is a question of time and he will be back to old habits very soon.


There are way too many fish out in the sea to put up with something like that. You don't want this weight of not trusting your partner the rest of your life.
wait for the counseling and really listen when you are there and then make your decision
I don't trust him. Why is he doing that to you?


Don't you think you deserve better than that?
If you were married in the eyes of God this would be adultary. I would sit down with him and let him know that this will not be tolerated by you, it makes you feel unloved and unwanted. My husband and I know that there are only two reasons that would ever cause us to divorce, one is spousal/child abuse or either party being unfaithful. It's just tolerated. I would make sure that you know that this has nothing to do with you and everything to do with him. Online chatting as well as pornography is an addiction and provides some sort of self validation for people that think they have a void in their heart to fill. If he is unwilling to committ to you 100% and let this life style go I wouldn't bother with counseling and would move on. It'll hurt for awhile but you will get over it and will be a better a person for it. God Bless you in whatever path you choose.
HEY YOU--snap out of it. have some self respect ---this guy is a creep--an immature, lying, disrespectful, uncaring man. He is dangerous and a waste of your time. A counselor??? Why??? Just dump him and find a real honest hard working man who will appreciate knowing you and will bring you true happiness. You can't and you never will trust this loser--so why be miserable?? Life has no promises--you will have disappointments all the time--why the depression??? Just Move on--you can't do anything but keep trying. You were lucky to find out now--pack up and move--relax--have some fun--meet a few new guys and you will find one that is right for you. There is NO reason to stay--or even try counseling--women are treated like the guilty party anyway--like the man can do some cheating--and you have to let him---NOPE--cheats are losers and not worth your time. Tell him to pack up--or you pack up---someone has to go-it is over. Just don't blame yourself--that's life...NEVER accept second best--only go with real men who treat women with respect and dignity and integrity---- Stand tall--have some self confidense--smile and good luck.
I would imagine the counselling will help. I dont know if I would ever trust him myself though.
NO. Once a cheater, always a cheater. He has a problem if his playing with girls on the internet instead of the girl right in front of him. You are better than that. There are plenty of guys out there. You are too good for this one. Next thing you know, he will be on to catch a predator. Better to deal with it now, than after you are married. It may take a while to get over, but just know that you are worthy of a good guy. Have confidence in yourself.
No, there is no way to get over it quicker. SOme things you just have to be disciplined and muscle themout.
When both of you are planning marriage, it means both of you have to be ready to commit to each other in mind, heart and soul. It looked like he was not ready since he was chatting and exchanging pictures with girls.





Did he admit what he did was not right and being unfair to you? If yes, then go for counseling and get help. Both of you will be more sure of yourselves before taking the plunge into marriage.





Cheer up... you will be ok. This is part of life, we learn to deal with relationship problems as we take on life journey. That is how we build our relationship on rocks and not on sand. A relationship is not given ... it is for both of you to put in efforts and and be responsible to make it a happy successful one.





Love is patient,

but (love) rejoices with the truth:





(love) bears all things,

(love) hopes all things,


(love) endures all things.
Your man is cheating on you. He is not going to stop cheating, either. Take it from an older woman -- you can do NOTHING to change a man. You either have to take him as he is (cheating on you) or move on. My advice would be to move on. There is always another guy, and you may find one who respects you and would never dream of doing what the current guy is doing. (I found one of those!) Find yourself another guy, and state your boundaries up front. That way, if he is not capable of being faithful, it will come out early before he hurts you terribly.
try observing him more.here no one can decide with the information you provided.and i think that is not a problem .it is very common.
I've been in a similar situation; I was in a relationship with a guy for over a year when I found logs of him chatting with girls online, telling them he was single and into hockey and other sports (which neither is/was true). I also found a photograph of a naked girl in his room once. Needless to say, he and I aren't together anymore, but for different reasons. I didn't trust him fully to begin with, but the picture and the messages were the deal breaker, I could never forgive him because my heart kept telling me he was lying and had every intention to continue with these kinds of actions.


It's truly a personal decision; trust your heart, not what he tells you or some counselor tries to make you believe. It's not a matter of whether your relationship is strong enough to withhold this kind of situation, but rather what you're willing to put up with. If you truly feel betrayed and don't know how to forgive him and you've tried everything you can, then my best advice would be to start looking elsewhere. There's plenty of fish in the sea, and I'm sure you'd have no trouble finding someone that would treat you the way you're MEANT to be treated.


If you do find it in your heart to forgive him and can truly let this go, then go for it. Every really good relationship has it's bumps in the roads, and if you guys can truly overcome it together, then more power to you.


Like I said, it's a personal choice. Follow your heart.





Best of luck.
Well,i have had a similar problem,and i ended up forgiving him,but i don't think i can ever forget.Counseling sounds good,see what he does and how he acts around you after counseling.


Good luck,keep your chin up
this isnt good. you have to start counseling before it even starts between the two of you? i cant see why anyone has the need to seek this kind of attention. anyways, you may have to be ready for a long bumpy road with him.
I can see where your coming from. Personally i think its like cheating. Trust is not someting to be thrown about. Tell him that your upset and that you dont want him doing it again. And then its up to him to try and make you trust him again.


Good Luck
What he did is wrong, but if he's willing to get help, then I think you should give him another chance. Now if he actually slept or met up with some of these women I would have answered you differently. Unfortunately time heals pain and this is not something you can hurry up and forget about. You will learn to trust him again, but he really needs to step up and make sure this doesn't happen again. I bet my seeing your reaction straightend him up already. Guys don't realize how much stuff like that hurts and that it is considered cheating!

She doesn't trust me? Anymore? Need some advice?

My wife thinks that I am cheating on her because we don鈥檛 have as much sex? She always gets mad and cries we get into a lot of arguments. I love my wife a lot I鈥檓 not cheating on her she doesn't Trust me and she thinks I don't love her. I work long hours and just to tired to have the kind of sex we used to. I don鈥檛 know what to do all these arguments are putting a strain on my marriage.She doesn't trust me? Anymore? Need some advice?
Have sex in the morning :)


Works for me!She doesn't trust me? Anymore? Need some advice?
Well, sometimes you just have to man it up and do it. Tell her how you feel, tell her that you are tired but you will still do it because you love her. Women love honesty, well at least I do ;) Simply show her that you are tired but you will still do it because you love her, I am sure she will understand. Keep in mind that you both have sexual needs, while she is satisfying you, you should try your best to satisfy her needs as well.
Awhh man I feel so bad for u. I would feel the same way and have before. U have to start doing EXTRA stuff to ease her mind. Sneak in calls at work, Call at lunch just to say I LOVE U AND u have to do little stuff to make her feel like u care. IT WILL BE VERY stressful but thats about the only thing.





I am sure u have told her u are tired so that wont help but buy her a little something and try to set a day or 2 aside for a quickie :)





I hope this helps as for it is hard on both of u.
Tell her that you are tired and try to set out like a day or two a week where you can have you time and she will understand. We are usually very understanding when we calm down.
Try talking to her when she's not upset. Be honest!


Maybe if you guys try changing your ';sex schedule';, try making love in the morning, you won't be so tired, or in the afternoon...





=)





Good luck!

Mums of yahoo - do you trust a woman's advice more than a man?

Just wondering. If you post a question and get several answers from both mums and dads, do you automatically think less of the dads answers?


I have to confess, unless I have seen that they are a stay at home dad, I assume that they haven't personally had to deal with the things that I do as a stay at home mum. I saw an answer from a dad earlier about keeping children in strict routines and wondered how much his wife sticks to his rules!


Just curious really, what do the rest of you think?Mums of yahoo - do you trust a woman's advice more than a man?
I trust dads opinions but my husband and my own dad are really good dads so I know all their advice is good. I think you only feel like that if you dont know hands on dads.





EdiT; I think its cause your husband cant do it that you think all men cant. My husband can be left on his own and make dinner,tidy house and care for our daughter. He does it all the time when I am at work and out. He is really good at it and he is better than me cause I cant cook and he can do it all. My husband could run teh house better than me in my opinion but thats one of the reasons I married him as I dont want a traditional manMums of yahoo - do you trust a woman's advice more than a man?
I am a stay at home mom, so by default, I go with the women. But the Best person to trust is yourself...and your child's doctor.





My husband is really good at tough answers when I am in a pickle. Still I still go with my gut on most things.





When I was in school for Childcare/Psychology there were quite a few guys in the class that were educated and interested in the subject.





Don't count the guys out totally.





As for mister routine, it is really hard to tell who you are actually talking to or getting advise from when you are on the computer. First you have to trust that the person put the correct information in the title, then are they being serious. (He probably made the rules, if his wife didn't, she will try, but probably not stick to the routines.)
Well, honestly, it really depends on the question and answer that an individual gives. But, in my case, I trust a man's answer (legit answer of course). This is for a couple of reasons:





1.) My husband is better at disciplining than I am.





2.) My husband is better at maintaining order in the household than I am.





3.) My husband has more patience that I do.





4.) My husband is really just better at the whole parenting thing than I am as he has been helping raise little kids his whole life whereas I had never even held a baby before I had my first child (who is now 3) when I was 21 years old.


My dad was the same way. So yep, to an extent, I'd trust the guys more! No offense! God bless!
Actually, the best piece of advice I have been given came from a Daddy. It was in regards to basically what you asked here. I questioned my husband’s methods to parent our son and this person told me that Mom’s have one method of parenting and Daddy’s have another. Neither is right nor wrong, they’re just different.





And because of that answer, I just listen to the responses I get from a question asked and choose the best answer for my situation. And it doesn’t matter to me if it’s a male/female, mother/father, or a person with no kids at all.
I have actually seen some really good advice from moms and dads on here. My daughter's peditrician is a man and he is the best. Has five kids of his own so he gives good practical advice.





On the other hand, my husband works all day and hasn't been around babies much. Neither was his dad. Some of the things they tell me to do with my daughter I don't pay a lot of attention too. Not that I think they are stupid-its just not practical.





I agree with on the above posters. Good advice is good advice..no matter the gender.
I will tell you that good advice is good advice. I totally get where you are coming from. There are a couple of ';regulars'; that come to my mind whose advice ';ranks'; over other males in general. I will say that I'm actually partial to advice from people whose answers I am familiar with and I usually agree with anyway. People who seem to have sense. I usually think more of their opinion than people I've never seen before.


Yea my husband is the same way. God help you all if he ever figure out how to use YA, you would all be in trouble. :-)
I generally don't ask for specific advice here...why would I trust complete strangers with my child?





On the occasion that I ask here it's simply to measure my own opinion on a matter...that's about it.





As far as gender...I think I go more by the content of the answer, not by the sex of the answerer...





Idiots come in both genders...
I take the advice of men. Unless as you said it's anything to do with pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding etc anything that they personally never have to deal with.





But apart from that gender doesn't bother me - too much anyway.
I don't trust anyone's advice, really. I consider it and decide whether it makes sense and would work within the values and structure of my life and family.





Men's ideas are just as worthy of consideration as women's, though
I don't make any assumptions about the gender of the person answering the question regardless of what their avatar indicates. Anyone can say they are a mum or a dad on the internet.
i have given a lot of good advice to a lot of mums on here, but its other female answerers that give me loads of thumbs down, but i still get a lot of top answers from the askers though.
I tend to trust the women more...especially if the men are advising me on the state of being pregnant! They do that sometimes which is very annoying actually...they cannot comment unless they are doctors.
I equally trust woman and men's answers . I've met some wonderful dads on here as well as some wonderful moms.
I have not noticed the gender of the person answering the question.. Good advice is good advice to me!
No way. I go with what answer makes most sense to me. My partner states things about our daughter that don't occur to me so I really value a dad's point of view too
When i ask factual questions generally men answer. if its emotional or personal women come out!


Dont know why??
No both men and woman can offer good advice.
Well, I usually don't even notice whether it is a man or woman.





--I do get what you mean though.
I kind of agree, not that I think a dad is any less capible of knowing things about children %26amp; so on but I feel better taking advice from other moms. I guess it's a woman thing.





Good Luck!

PLEASE HELP...i have trust issues and need advice?

PLEASE READ EVEN THOUGH ITS LONG





okay so its a long story but ill TRY to make it short. ill call my best friend bff and bf means boyfriend (gf means girlfriend). ps im 13





ok so i really really started to like this guy (hes in 5 of my periods @ school). he liked me too (he told me yesterday he used 2 like me). even back then im pretty sure he was about to ask me out (hed be my first bf) . THEN....





my bff (who im pretty sure is the most BEAUTIFUL girl in the whole school) saw i like him and she got extrememly jealous i could tell. all she had to do was bat her goergous eyelashes and flirt and giggle and he was hers.





he eventually asked her out now they are gf and bf and i cant possibly trust my ';bff'; again. she actually hates him and told me shes too good for him cuz shes popular and hes not and shes gonna dump him at the start of the skewl year (shes sooo shallow i hate her now but am still ';her bff'; cuz i know shell spread rumors bout me if i tell her i dont like her)





SOOOOO.....


now me and teh guy are basically bff (never had a guy bff b4 so its kinda wierd) anyway i dont want him as a bf anymore but we were playing truth or dare and i realized i couldnt tell him any of the truths....





i think it was cuz he chose her ovr me and it really crushed me since she doesnt even like him and he was the first guy i was REALLY into.





so how do i trust him with stuff again....in fact how do i trust anyone at all (cuz i really dont now)PLEASE HELP...i have trust issues and need advice?
Being afraid that your bff will spread rumors about you is no reason to keep her as a bff. Some girls, when they find out someone is interested in a friend, try to take that person away from them. I think it is because they are insecure. No matter how beautiful they are or how much they say they are too good for someone. Basically they really don't like themselves very much and are afraid they will lose their friend to someone else. From your spelling and grammar, you could use more book time and less time with friends and worrying about bf.

College students! Should I trust this guy? Honest advice please.?

I'm a senior in college, and I met this cute freshman through a mutual friend. We hung out a few times- we'd watch movies and make out, mostly. His dad just divorced his mom for another woman, and I like being there for him. I started having feelings for him around the sixth time we hung out, so one night when I was hanging out with my girlfriends (they told me to tell him how I felt), I texted/asked him if he wanted anything more than friends-with-benefits. He said he wasn't ready for a relationship, but that he liked me and wants to be friends for now. He said that he gets so nervous about serious relationships and screws them up, and he doesn't want that to happen. I can understand but then I thought about how he could be lying, and got mad and ignored him after that. He called me yesterday, but I ignored it. I like him a lot, but my friends think I should ignore him (make him ';squirm';) and see what happens. They think he's just looking for sex.


What do you think? What should I do?College students! Should I trust this guy? Honest advice please.?
bigger question is why a senior girl is dating a freshman guy... are you really that much out of options???College students! Should I trust this guy? Honest advice please.?
i think he have nervous about a serious relationship because the background of his family is not good.maybe he is afraid try to think about it don't listen to everyone listen to your heart i know you can do it.

  • Can you trust a ex lver for advice on a new relationship?

    yes to a pointCan you trust a ex lver for advice on a new relationship?
    Hell No!

    Can you trust a ex lver for advice on a new relationship?
    yes if you feel that ur ex lover knws u better and can advice u better than any one else. u can trust him\her.
    I wouldn't. The reason being that you don't know if they still have feelings for you, and they may not have the most objective opinon.
    yes u can cuz they no u n wot ur like
    Depends, but I would say most of the time, no. because their opinion would be biased. There are instances were the ex can give you objective nonbiased opinion, but not often
    yes at the same time u let the fox guard the chickens
    IF YOUR EX HAS SUCH GOOD ADVICE ON RELATIONSHIPS THEN WHY IS HE YOUR EX??? THINK ABOUT IT ITS AN EX FOR A REASON.
    Yes, if you two ended on good terms.
    no way
    sometimes. i have a guy friend who likes me. we never even dated. but he always gives me the negative sides of stories I tell him involving me an other men. but after a while he gives the positive side. Many people are selfish. i think you should be able to tell when someone has your best interest at heart. just be on the look out. why you friends with an ex anyway. i try to keep things and people from the past as that. the past. soemtimes you can make exceptions. but use discretion
    No way why... you putting him in all your business suppose he has some old vendetta against you and exacts revenge or suppose he sabbatoges you so you can back with him no its just not good for an old boyfriend in your business period
