It will definitely bother me. Why in the world does he want to go out with his ex when he already has you? What is his intention in doing this? You have to ask him straight about it. I doubt that he is having something in his mind. To me it is not normal to go out for lunches and having intimate talks with my ex when I already have a special date. I can always go out for lunch with my steady boyfriend and have intimate chats with him. Why would I bother to seek help from my ex?

i had self confidence that it is purely friendship..my instincts will tell me if there is something going on more than friendship again i will know..my boyfriend is seeing his exes for friendship..they have lunch or dinners or parties but i never got myself believing there was wrong in doing so as long as it remains pure friendship..exes will never gonna be away in our lives..they are people whom we once loved and whom we once been with..they've been part of our lives so they will never gonna go away..

Hi touchnshine,
Im going to give you my honest opinion.I think i would have a problem with my boyfriend having lunch and intimate thoughts with his ex partner.I mean because in the back my head i would be thinking they might start having feelings for one another again.This is somebody they used to be intimate with so i definitely would have a problem forsure.
take care

My husband has been talking to his ex online and on the phone, and it hasn't bothered me yet. She doesn't live in the area anymore but she's talking about visiting, and I fully expect them to hang out. It really doesn't bother me at all, because I feel that if I didn't trust my husband, I wouldn't have married him. *shrugs*
I know a lot of people who have sabotaged relationships by being jealous when they didn't need to be, and even if I were to be jealous about the situation, it wouldn't keep him from doing something he really wanted to do anyway. So there's just no point to worrying about it, in my opinion.

We Indians are not so liberal,in actions as well as thoughts.Though we had relationships earlier to marriage we don't speak it openly in front of each other. Its not because we are unfaithful or hiding anyting from each other but we totally cut off from the earlier ones. And I think everyone should do it because once you had that feelings for a person and now that you are meeting as friends that old emotions may raise their heads once again, so be with one at a time and forget others totally is my opinion.

Hi touchnshine! I guess, it would bother me somehow. I am not the jealous type but I don't think I would be comfortable with my hubby and his ex having lunches and intimate talks. I trust my hubby but I don't think I could trust someone who is his ex and would want to spend some time with him alone. At the back of my mind, there would always be this little voice whispering to me to beat the crap out of the ex. LOL! :) Have a nice weekend!

It depends I guess...if my boyfriend has never given me a reason to doubt him, to not trust him, then I don't see why it would bother me. It would probably be in my thoughts though, why would anyone want to meet with their ex so much, you know? Of course, it also depends on the other person, does she still love him? Still like him? There's a lot of things to consider before one can say that they're truly comfortable/uncomfortable with their partners seeing their exes.
Normally though, I'm not a jealous person and I wouldn't mind. But it all depends on the people in question. I would definitely want to meet her if they were hanging out a lot, and I don't see why I couldn't hang with them sometimes. If they just want hang out alone all the time, my alarm bells would definitely ring and that alone would make me uncomfortable - even if the boyfriend is trustworthy.
