If your man is still in contact with his ex, there are three possibilities of what may be going on between them.
1. Their Relationship Is Over, And They Both Are Healthy People
You can be happy in this case because you are with a great guy. When your guy talks ill about their ex, it’s a big red flag. You should be more cautious when he speaks negatively about her than when he is friends with her. Still, it’s understandable that you feel jealous of his ex.
2. He Still Loves Her And Hopes That They Will Get Back Together
There is not much you can do to change this situation. What matters is that you learn this soon enough, so you don’t get emotionally attached to him. What matters is that you take care of yourself and protect your heart. Once you realize this, you know what to do.
3. He Is A People Pleaser And Is Easily Manipulated By Her
This is definitely a delicate situation. You don’t want to put him in a bind by demanding anything from him. Doing this will just perpetuate his tendency to please you. So, you don’t allow him to make his own decision.
Instead, you further reinforce his tendency to be a people pleaser. He will resent you someday. The methods that I provide don’t involve demands.
