Exes

Does anyone here still talk to their Exes. I do now and then. Just to say hi. I can't let that part of my life go. he was in my life for 5 years and his sister is my best friend. Her boys are like my nephews. they still call me aunt Susie. Is that wrong?

No more wrong than still living with your ex

My Ex and i live 2000 miles away from each other. It is weird i will talk to him maybe once or twice a year but i NEVER want to see him again after what happened between us. i ended up in the hospital for 3 weeks cause of what he did.

No, I don't think it's wrong at all, in fact it's admirable. Not enough of it in
this world.

I'm still friends with my ex (SO) and he has even been to dinner at my house
and likes my husband! I also just last month went to visit my former mother
(outlaw) who is in a nursing home. She is a truly sweet person and always
made for some nice times for me. So why not keep those realtionships if you
can? The only thing I would worry about is how your fiance feels about it,
and if he's okay with it, I see no problem.

He is fine with it. They used to be friends, until my ex did what he did. he just worries about me and the way i would react if i saw him. Like i said i never want to see him. I am kinda scared of him in person. He is one of the reason that we moved 2000 miles away from home. But His sister and her family are my best friends. She is like my sister.

there should be nothing wrong with that. you guys went through a lot together and you learned a lot from each other. i don't see why there should be a problem if you are civil to each other!!!!!!!

I see nothing wrong with it. I'd talk to mine if I saw him, but of course I can say that when he lives far away now LOL. My husband's ex and I email each other jokes all the time. Sometimes, you can love someone, just not live with them. tmbsgirl--the fear eventually goes away. It takes a long time, but it does.

Yikes!!!! Your ex put you in the hospital? It might be a good idea to say Hi once in a while just so you know where he is and that he is far away from you. Keep your friends close and your enemies even closer as the saying goes.

I still talk to many of my exes and consider them friends. I do not tend to associate with the ones who did me wrong but being friends with his sister make this a little more complicated. I hope this is not a tendancy to be with people who harm you and wish you better luck in your marriage.

I talked with mine until he reached a point where he could no longer speak. (He died of cancer 3 years ago). We were able to keep a friendship of sorts and to talk civilly about the kids.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it unless it hurts you or those important to you.

Oh bleck I have no choice but to talk to my ex (we spent 18 years in marriage) due to the fact We try to co-parent our teen daughters. I detest the man but do not let this show onto my daughters however they grow futher and further from their father due to his incredibly lousy treatment. If they came to me one day and said Mom I never wish to see my father again, I would write him off in a heartbeat. I have no use for a man who shirks his responsibilities to his own children just to please another woman and her children then turn around and lie by saying "nothing means more to me than my own daughters" Uh huh sure, he has financially, and emotionally deprived these 2 beautiful girls to the point of them fighting to not see him.
I suppose talking to our ex's is relative to how the ex's have treated us and those dear to us.
