His Girlfriend Says She’s Not Friends With Her Ex, Yet She Speaks To This Guy On A Daily Basis
For the last three months, this 30-year-old guy has been dating a woman the same age as him, and they recently made things official.
Unfortunately, he is concerned about one thing, and that’s how frequently his girlfriend speaks to her ex-boyfriend.
Apparently, his girlfriend split up with her ex because he was verbally abusive, and they ended things more than a year ago now.
“However, after they broke up, they went and each got a puppy from the same litter, so this is where she claims most of the contact revolves around,” he explained.
“When we are together, she receives multiple texts from him and sometimes phone calls. She does not ever answer phone calls when we are together. She rarely will message him back when we are together.”
“I have sat down and talked with her that I felt the daily basis contact was inappropriate as it made me wonder if they truly never ripped the band-aid off. She assures me that she wouldn’t even consider them friends due to how mean and verbally abusive he was towards her.”
She told him he could read through all of their texts to prove that they’re not friends, but he said no because he really wants to trust and believe his girlfriend.
As for all the phone calls, his girlfriend says her ex calls her when he sees something funny he wants to share with her.
His girlfriend maintains that the majority of what she discusses with her ex revolves around their puppies and keeping them in contact, along with funny memes.

He thinks his girlfriend is invested in their relationship and not cheating on him, but that doesn’t make up for the fact that he finds it weird and suspicious she speaks to her ex so much yet promises this guy isn’t worthy of being her friend.
“She hasn’t given me a good definition of what exactly he is to her other than to keep her puppy in contact with its sibling,” he said.
“The frequent contact still bothers me, and I don’t know what to do next. Am I in the wrong, though? Am I being controlling? Should I be concerned? Is it just too early for the both [of] us for me to even have a thought of concern?”
“Obviously, issuing an ultimatum is not what I want to do, but I am concerned 6 months from now, this will remain an issue for me [to be] unable to get over. I would rather nip it in the bud now. If you feel I am being controlling or overly jealous, please be honest.”
