Many people told me that it is hard to keep the contact with the first girlfriend after separating, is that true? For me, I don't believe that, because what I experienced can prove that. I made my first girl friend many years ago, we are together for about one and a half years, but we separate in the end for some reason. And we are good friends now, sometimes we say hello on line and talk something. Both of us have gotten married, she found a good husband and I got a good wife, but we are still friends.
So how about you? Please share your idea here

That is a good question and an interesting topic to discuss. With my first girlfriend I had the most wonderful relationship ever and when we got separated I suffered a lot, but time passed by and healed everything.
I don't know why, but she is still special to me although I had for about 10 girls after her. It's been over 6 years since I finished with her and now we talk occasionally when we meet on the street, but never online.
I know that if I were to be with her again it won't work because we both changed a lot since then, but she will have a place in my heart for ever and nothing and no one will ever change that.

Hi Metahelly, I'm surprised that you have had 10 girls after your first girlfriend, but it's good. And yes, 6 years have passed, you have changed a lot, being more mature

I think it would be disrespectful to your current partner if you still keep in touch with your first girlfriend. How would you feel if your wife is also keeping in touch with her first boyfriend? Wouldn't you feel doubt and uneasiness as well.

Yes, to some extent, it is really disrepectfull to my wife if I still keep in touch with my first girlfriend, but for me, my first girlfriend has had her own family, and I aslo have had my own family, and both of our families have had child, we just chat sometimes on line and we lived far away.

My first serious boyfriend was my husband but in between we broke up and i had another boyfriend. The last time i talked to that ex of mine was 3 years ago when i applied for a passport and he works at there. We had a short chit chat like old friends but after that he went to Europe.
I would love to get in touch with him if it's possible but I'm not sure if his wife would be fine with that.

Hi robben, I also have same experience with you..we still have nice conversation using messengers and have a meeting once a year when school reunion..Sometimes they will become our best friends for goods..nice to share something, but we have unofficial regulation not to talk about partner or any family problem since worried to start fire..stay away from that things..

First of all,i'm a girl,i come here just for the topic is interesting.I think some people do not have any connections with their ex-. They thought it would be embarrassed to see each other or talk on the internet.So,i would do the same thing with you,we could be friends now.

I wouldn't like to but I have to even thought I would like to erase that part of my life I can't, because he was my first boyfriend, my first husband and is the father of my son, my as son is thrirteen years old, and I am three months marrired, with a great husband, but dorry for me I still have to keep comunication with my son's father which I hate to do. Thanks for your interesting discussion. Have a great day.

My first boyfriend is already in California. We broke up about 8 years ago. We used to have communication thru emails but I lost contact with him. We are not friends anymore, I guess I can just call him an acquaintance.

I think what happens is that you don't know what's happening or what to expect during your first relationship so it usually doesn't end well.
My first ex and I hardly ever speak but I am currently buying some pets from her older brother so things are clearing up between her and I.
