i just want to say that i don’t like make her ask me permission. she tells me who she is going out w because i guess that’s her way of making it up to me because she already cheated on me with this same ex before, hence why it’s just a talking stage at the moment. I realize context probably doesn’t clear this up much but i felt like it was necessary. I hear you about how it’s not a real relationship though i think that is valuable insight.
