I had remained friends with my ex, however my current bf doesn't like that. He hates it even, and called him nasty sounding names.
I had not seen my ex for a long time. Some months I think. But lately we planned to meet to return some money that was owned. My bf was very unhappy about this. He doesn't wan us to meet.
Knowing my ex, he will be too lazy to transfer funds or any other arrangement and needs to be "forced" or else he won't get things done. So meeting up to get back the money is the most effiecient solution, and I'm pretty tied up for money now.
I have reasurred my bf several times that my relationship with my ex is strictly platonic, but he is still nervous about it. I can understand that, but what he wans is total cut off from my ex. No contact whatsoever.
I feel tied down and restricted. I yearn to get the respect I deserve, and the trust from my bf. Lately many problems have been weighing me down and I'm too tired to handle his childishness at this point.
How do I let him understand that things are not as complicated as he think?
Your bf is really very possessive.
Mayb u should meet your ex together with him, it's the best solution out. Anyway, just to get back the money from your ex, rite? Meet your ex outside with your bf to reassure him. If u really wanna meet your ex alone, u must explain and talk to your bf nicely, if he's a reasonable guy and loves u a lot, he will believe u 'cos he also dun wanna lose u. If he is really those suspicious guy who dun trust u, carrying on this relationship will also result problems in future, do u agree with me? Mayb this is a test of your relationship loh..
