Boyfriend talking to ex girlfriend...need opinions...?
I have recently found out that my boyfriend of almost 3 yrs has been talking to his ex girlfriend.She had a death in the family a couple months ago and my boyfriend lied to me about where he was going, and took our ten month old baby over to meet her and her family, and give his condolences...ok I forgave him for that one because there was a death in her family and what not, although I was still upset at that fact that he lied about where he was taking our baby!!Then, a few weeks later I went to use his cell phone and stumbled across some txt messages that they were going to meet up for lunch and hangout after they both got off work! He also sent her a text something along the lines of "having a schoolboy crush" and when I confronted him about it he said it was just lyrics to a song they liked and he was just trying to be there for her because she is still upset over the death in her family! Isnt it obvious something is going on w them? Is it appropriate for him to act like this w her?

I hate to say it but no, that's not appropriate and it will not end well. I went through something very similar... my now ex (and this is why he's my ex) was "hanging out" with his ex the entire year and a half we were together. She also had a death in her family and he said he wanted to show his sympathy but instead he lied and told me it was one of his guy friends and said he needed to spend time with "him". I found out it was her and forgave the lying because of the situation (the death of her sister) but I had to draw the line after discovering he went to concerts with her, out to eat and even took a nice little weekend getaway...all of which he claimed was with a guy friend. Anyway, my point here is that if he's lying about it there's obviously a reason and it won't stop, I learned this from experience. Spending time around someone you once were intimate with is not an easy thing, there's likely to be tension and weird feelings. That text is totally inappropriate and if I were you I would demand he stop texting/calling her and either stop seeing her completely or only see her with you along.... I'd say end it but you do have a baby together and have been together for a while so I'm assuming you wouldn't want to just throw away the relationship. Also, talk to him and tell him how it hurts you when he lies about that stuff and that he's now put doubts in your mind...ask him if he'd like you sneaking around with an ex-lover.

he was comforting an old friend when a loss came upon her family...thats understandable. but to take you baby to meet her then have multiple texts with her regarding meeting up and what not is wrong. you need to be honest with him and tell him how this makes you feel. i doubt he is cheating. he probably sees it as catching up with an old friend. you, however, see it as something else. he needs to take your feelings into consideration and make choices that will keep you happy since he is with you. he made a baby with you and he has a lot to lose if things get out of hand. if he is smart he will let her go on her way regardless if she is inconsolable. the loss of her family member isnt his problem...how ever harsh that sounds. he was there for her and he didnt need to be. now he needs to focus on you once again. sounds like you feel as if he is pushing you away. trust me i know how that feels. im sort of going through the same thing. except his ex gf of 5 years is trying to come between us. he feels some sort of obligation to talk to her because they have known each other since they were kids. i set him straight on things i dont see is right. so maybe you should do the same. if he is smart he will stop talking to her. after all you are the mother of his child....you should mean more to keep in his life then her!

I'd relax.. I talked to my ex when his mother died and I was with sombody..it really was just to comfor the lad and help him out.
If it does get a little out of control i'd tighten the rains a little but you are going to have to trust him, it seems he has only started talking to her scence the death in her family so if they went that long without talking I think it's all innocent.And more so e brought yer child which is showing her he is happy with you and yer baby!!

Oh hell no. This is NOT ok. He's sneaking and lying and that is unacceptable. Talk to him about it and tell him he needs to re-evaluate what he wants because if he wants to disrespect you and lie to you and spend time with some other girl, he doesn't want you. Sorry, but you gotta be tough sometimes. Guys can be really dumb.

Discover how to get your ex back with simple text message: http://getyourexback.checkhere.info/
Many girls break up with their significant others, is because they need time to figure things out. Don't take it personally, if you want her back, you have to show her you can help her. If you love her then you'll let her go, that's it. Not everybody who you date in high school you end up staying with, the chances are extremely unlikely. So if she doesn't want to, then you need to let her go.

oh hunnie...nah...not good at all. My goodness what is he trying to do? Honestly, you really need to talk to him and tell him that his actions are inappropriate and unfair to both you and the baby. There's nothing wrong with talking to an ex, except the way you actually talk to them and mentioning the name of an old song they both like is absurd...that means no good. That kinda shows that he still likes her. I really think his actions are unfair to you. He is being self-centered and not taking your feelings into consideration. At least if he is still in love with her, he ought to tell you...if he really cares then he would let you know...despite the fact that it may hurt you.
I'm sorry...but you deserve better:(:(

DEFINITELY inappropriate .
nothing wrong with consoling a friend, death is hard on everyone.
he probably lied to avoid confrontation, stupid yes; does it means he's cheating? no
you going through his phone LOOKING for "stumbled across" texts or "evidence" also inappropriate.
The boy is Stupid no doubt about it. A liar , we ALL are to some extent, men and women both. no one can say they never told a lie to someone they cared about for one reason or another. just b/c you lie doesn't mean you cheat. sit him down and see where his head is, if its not with you, give him his walking papers.
hope this helps

BIG NO if he's taking your kid somewhere and not telling you! and no, it's not appropriate for him to be hiding it from you at all. you can't stop him from talking to her(i'm having a similar problem myself) but you can definitely let him know how you feel about it - and i would!

that is not right at all ...and i believe that you should confront him about it, with other people there so that he cant lie or change the subject! that doesn't sound good to me so just talk to him and see what is really going on --hope that helps
