Is it okay to add ex girlfriend on facebook?

Heres the details. Im only 20 years young.

Ive had two girlfriends one back in 2006 and my current gf been together 2+ years.

In my current relationship, we are the same age, I have pretty much had my girlfriend discontinue any relationship with her ex boyfriends , who were still friends. I was/ still kind of am self conscious.

But for some reason tonight I was looking at my ex girlfriends page and just remember my first young love, it brought me back, and I want to add her and maybe talk to her a little bit.

Since our relationship way back when I have never thought of her was caught up on her or anything but now feel a need to just say hi for old times sake.

Am I in the wrong. Is it okay for my current girlfriend to talk to her ex boyfriends? Could this be a good stepping stone for my current relationship as to building trust talking to exes? Im sure she still has these feelings too and for once I think I understand.

CHEERS, thanks for the advice:)

Update:

further details, the first girlfriend was when i was 14-15 we did nothing but kiss, its funny looking back on just wanted to catch up say hi, see whats going on. :)

    Eh. don't add you're ex. It would be wrong to become friends with you're ex, when you wouldn't let you're girlfriend be friend's with hers. theres a reason she's a Ex. and not you're current girlfriend, i know i would be totally pissed off, and upset if my boyfriend added any of his ex's. Because something can always happen, and ruin everything you have with you're girlfriend now, or you're ex might get jealous of what you have now, and want you back, so she could lie to your girlfriend. just to ruin you're relationship. so if you really care, and love you're girlfriend don't add any ex's dude.

    If you are doing any of these things, you have to stop right now. Because if you're asking, "What can I do to get my ex back," all of the above mistakes will not do it, so stop doing these things immediately!

    So then, what should I be doing to get my ex boyfriend back, you ask? Here are some helpful tips for you to follow that actually work https://tr.im/WQ7MW

    You have to stop whatever you've been doing. It obviously didn't work, and if you were making the mistakes I mentioned above, then you really need to stop and take a step back. It's time for a fresh approach. You have to break complete contact with him, at least for a while. If you really like him, I know this is going to be difficult, but you have to do it. You can't communicate with him in any way. So, no texting, no IM'ing, no anything. You have to go "cold turkey" in a sense. You can consider this "you time" where you work on yourself. You have to work on improving your life instead of focusing your attention on your failed relationship. This will be probably be a difficult time for you, and it's going to feel almost impossible to not call him, but you'll need to stay disciplined so that you don't revert back to your old ways. Just remember that what you were doing wasn't working. You're trying something new.

    No.

    Lemme see. You add an ex. Then the ex can rant and rave how horrible you were. She can post pics you may or may not know of that reveal you are naked. All over the internet.

    People do not like to be talked about. And ex's already have a sore spot with you. How would your current gf like it if you did this? How about her feelings? You already see reality shows...do you want your life like this? How about an ex's new boyfriend coming over to your place of business or your home punching your face out?

    This is a stinky pot you don't want opened, pal.

    i could in undemanding terms do it if I nevertheless maintained a stable relationship with them. in case you communicate with them each and every now and then on the telephone, or in case you run into one yet another on social gathering and chat, I see no difficulty including them on facebook. If, although, there are any no longer straightforward emotions between you 2, or in case you haven't any longer seen/heard from the guy in years, i would not worry with it.

    Yes , it's okay to add your ex-girlfriend to your friends list on your facebook. As long as your girlfriend and her don't have any harsh feelings toward one another.

    Send the invite.... she needs to accept, to start with.....

    Have you considered that she may not want to know anything about you?

    and if you just want to say hi, it is Ok.

    don't do it dude, she's your ex-girl for a reason. i completely cut off all contact with my ex as soon as we broke up, no textin, no facebook, nothin. it's best if both of ya'll don't talk to your exes.
