I'm friends with my ex-girlfriend for about 6 years now, we know a lot of the same people, but we haven't dated in a year and half. Now I'm dating another girl, and she thinks that it is unnatural to be friends with your ex, she feels either threatened or jealous... To make the situation even more complicated, I'm supposed to move in with my ex. How do you handle a situation like that?

Rule one! Never move in with an ex. Why? If I was your girlfriend and found out that you were moving in with your ex? boy you would be single again! Why arnt you moving in with your current girlfriend? Boy my best advice is too focus on what you really want from these two important people in your life. Its good that you dont burn bridges, but losing trust is the last thing you want.
good luck

Whoa, why are you moving in with your ex? I know exactly how your current gf feels about this because I my bf is best friends with his ex gf, who he's been with for 6 years. Sometimes when my bf talks about her, I get a little angry and jealous. So yeah, your gf is obviously angry that you are still talking to her and still in a part of your past gf's life. She just doesn't want you and her to develop those past romantic feelings for each other again. And when you live with your ex, it's highly possible that you will grow a stronger bond with your ex that way. So, if you really care about your gf, do not take the friendship thing with your ex too far that would ruin your current relationship with your gf. It's fine if you are friends with your ex, but just don't take it any further.
Think about how you would feel if your current gf was going to live with her ex bf.

Well if you want things to work out with your current girlfriend then don't move in with your ex. I personally would be livid if my man moved in with his ex. Its not unnatural to be friends with your ex but you have to keep it at a friend level. She is your friend and your girlfriend needs to accept that but moving in is pushing it a little far.

Mind games take many forms that you may not think of, for example, pretending you're
in love with someone else or planning to be with another (to make your ex jealous)
is a terrible thing to do, and can seriously backfire.
Don't be mean or vicious. Going back to controlling your emotions -- you probably
feel like taking revenge of striking back for the pain it caused you. Think deeply
about this -- imagine how much worse the situation could become by fighting fire
with fire.
To come up with a solution to this saying, the only thing to fight fire with is
water. Obviously this is a metaphor, but the meaning here is to defuse the situation
instead of resorting to base instincts.
It's not a nice thing, especially when children are involved to disrespect the other
person, no matter what he feel they have done to you. You don't want to poison the
minds of others, as you may end up hurting them as well.
Keeping a calm demeanor about yourself and continuing on with your life will make
you much more approachable, and when you have really calmed down, it will be a lot
easier to discuss the situation in a civilized way.
This is only the very beginning of making amends and getting your relationship back
together, and it is a good idea to seek further advice as to where to go next.
These are just the beginning steps when asking - what can I do to get my ex back
[http://www.healing-a-broken-heart.com/what-can-i-do-to-get-my-ex-back/]? They are
the initial techniques I followed when I lost the love of my life. And frankly these
aren't my original ideas. I turned to T 'Dub' Jackson when I had no idea of how to
get my true love back.

don't move in with your ex. how would you feel if your now-girlfriend has been friends with her ex for soo long AND they're the ones moving in? wouldn't you feel threatened or nervous even?
its fine that you're friends with your ex, but i think moving in together is going to push your gf's limits.
dont. move. in.
