    Sounds like he plans on hurting YOU, not your new boyfriend . . . unless your boyfriends image of you does not exactly match the 'true you'. Best way to rid yourself of an ex is to be upfront and honest in this relationship. If there is anything your ex would say that would cause your new boyfriend to leave you . . . he would do so if he also found out about it down the line from someone else. Have a talk with him.

    Let him tell him. If your new boyfriend is smart, he'll know that your ex is just trying to break ya'll up. I wouldn't open that can of worms unless I had to. If your ex does tell the new boyfriend and the new boyfriend asks you about it, then you tell. I've learned to leave well enough alone. Face those problems when you have to. What if he's just telling you he's going to do it but he never does? Then you'll be exposing yourself to a person you might not be with for too long.

    you telling your bf is way better than knowing from somebody else then he will come and ask you if it's true and why u hide - so basically you run off one question but end up having 2 questions and noway to run off.

    If i were your bf i would highly appreciate you honesty if you come and tell good/bad things.

    the main thing you have to think about is how you inform him nicely without hurting him and affecting you relationship - sorry cant advice on this as u know ur bf better.

    NO, just tell your new boyfriend how your ex is a hater and is gonna make up lies to break yall up. If you tell the new guy about your past now, you might lose him prematurely

    i think you should tell you boyfriend what this guy is trying to do and maybe it would be good if you tell him what you did if it is really bad remember that it would be worst if he finds out by someone else. he should hear it from you in your words before somebody else says it with other words.

    if you tell your boy friend about whatever it is before your ex does then it wont be as bad, its worse to hear it from someone else

    I hate when people do that...you tell them things in secret and then they use it against you...do you have anything on him that you could threaten to use...if so, do it...

    tell your boyfriend before your ex can, if he's the one for you then he'll understand. and stop talking to your ex! he can't tell your boyfriends anything if you're not talking to him anymore.
