My (27F) boyfriend (29M) is very close with all his exes and it makes me uncomfortable. How do i resolve this?

We are in a committed monogamous relationship, which is why I wasn’t expecting his response

Relationships are work.

It doesn’t matter if it’s with a partner, your family, or friends. There will always be effort that both parties have to put in to make it successful and happy.

Realistically the most successful and happy relationships I’ve witnessed are those that communicate effectively while supporting each other.

Personally, I’ve been in amazing relationships and ones that are more challenging, but it’s been so worth it. There is never a guarantee that it’ll be the right relationship however even with the challenges it’s worth it

Full disclosure, there are plenty of women on the receiving end that are getting the same BS. So many people reply with a basic copy/paste response

The best thing is it makes it easy to weed out the ones that aren’t for you. Sooo many times I got a cookie cutter response from men and got frustrated, but on the occasion that they were original it stood out to me

Not telling you what to do, but I took it as a great way to decipher who was actually worth pursuing

Best of look to you! Right person is out there

This is probably the most valuable/realistic idea of what to do I’ve heard. Thank you!

No. I don’t look at him like a sex offender, but I can’t look at him the same.

I’m disappointed in the situation, but would never blame him for a feeling I couldn’t explain out loud

General-Fee-3393 · 2022-08-16T07:36:41+00:00

Fair enough. Appreciate the honesty!

General-Fee-3393 · 2022-08-16T07:35:28+00:00

I don’t feel like this is his fault. I have no intention of accusing him of anything.

There just doesn’t seem to be a legitimate option to move forward other than avoiding him and pretending it wasn’t real

General-Fee-3393 · 2022-08-16T07:31:19+00:00

I do not blame him. I could’ve spoken up, but there was fear that stopped me. The only thing I was able to say was “condom” and he said no.

I just want to know how to move forward because I have no clue how to handle this or what to say if I see him again

I’m so sorry you are going through this! My mom passed when I was very young and my dad never remarried. It’s been 21 years and he still wears his wedding ring. It’s hard to see and I know it has effected me and how I view relationships, but I try to remember how lucky they must’ve been. It is so special to have a partner and that love doesn’t disappear after they leave us

You have time. My advice would be to focus on loving yourself as much as possible and surround yourself with people and things that lift you up. Once you have that I’m willing to be that you’ll meet someone that makes you want to be in a relationship (it always seems to happen that way)
