How do I tell my ex I'm seeing someone new?

Question

My former partner and I dated for five years, and broke up in March. We have one daughter together, who is two. After breaking up we continued to live together as roommates because it wasn't a hateful breakup and as students neither of us could afford a new place.

In April I started emailing and texting a man in the province I would be moving to for grad school. We had a few phone conversations, too, and were in daily contact. I didn't hide it, but didn't spell it out for my former partner either.

In July I moved to the east coast and met the new guy for the first time. We really hit it off. He met my daughter near the end of August. We've only been officially dating for two months, but have basically been "involved" for five, and I feel like at this point it might be time to tell my ex about my current boyfriend. How do I tell him this, and is this too soon?

When you have to talk to him about the child just say "oh by the way I have been dating a guy named ......... just thought you should know in case our child says something about him"

I think its best if you tell him as soon as you can, because if he finds out from someone else, that will make things a lot worse, and i think the best way is just to come out with it. I no it might hurt him, but its the only way. Its probly going to hurt him however you tell him, because you was together for so long. Hope this helps :) xx

EX, being the operative word here, means you don't have to explain anything to him.  I bet he is seeing someone, too.

Its none of his affairs. Why do you feel the need to tell him.
