TwistedThoughts answered Saturday September 18 2004, 10:17 am: This happened to me! See my girlfreind talked about her ex ALOT! But see the thing is that your g/f probably was in love with her ex...and its really hard to get over loving someone! She might not want to get close to you because she is shy....this happens a lot! So dont take that to heart...it doesnt mean anything! So if it really bothers you that much ask her about it...just say you know you talk about him alot...why? because it really bothers me! and then just talk it out....but dont end the relationship! If you love her you cant just throw it away like that! Hope i helped [ TwistedThoughts's advice column | Ask TwistedThoughts A Question ]
whabit answered Saturday September 18 2004, 3:26 am: Hi there! Ask her straight out why she talks about her ex so much, ask her if she's still inlove with him... Tell her you really love her but it hurts you if she talks about her ex so much. If she doesn't stop then you should really think about breaking up with her because that would mean she doesn't give a damn about your feelings [ whabit's advice column | Ask whabit A Question ]
Lasag69 answered Saturday September 18 2004, 2:34 am: Hate to say it buddy, but i think your best off breaking up with her before you get hurt even more. If she keeps talking about her ex, then she probably still has strong feelings for him. If you don't break it off, your going to get hurt by her, because she will most likely get back with her ex. I'm sorry if this sounds nasty, but it's the truth. Hope it all turns out for the best...whatever that may be.
Good Luck :-) [ Lasag69's advice column | Ask Lasag69 A Question ]
xXxpinky615xXx answered Friday September 17 2004, 10:17 pm: My ex boyfriend would talk about his ex girlfriend ALL the time. It really got on my nerves. So what I did was I started talking about my ex boyfriend. He got annoyed and told me to stop talking about him. I said "I'll only stop talking about him if you stop talking about Kristy (that was her name)" i told him that it bothered me ALOT and it hurt for him to talk about his ex girlfriend all the time. If the only time she shuts up about her ex boyfriend is when you're next to her kissin her and huggin her then there is really something wrong with that picture there. i know it's going to hurt but she probably still has feelings for her ex boyfriend so that's why she keeps talking about him. my boyfriend would talk about his ex girlfriend but what he would do was compair us. try talking to her again and let me know how things go. if you have anymore questions feel free to drop one in my box and i'll be happy to help ya! :)
Siren_Cytherea answered Friday September 17 2004, 9:48 pm: It's totally up to you whether or not you break up with her. Have you told her WHY you want her to stop? She might not understand. Some girls don't get that their boyfriends don't want to hear about their exes. She might also have some lingering "I'm really pissed at him" feelings, and she might just be venting them at you. (I had that in the beginning of my current relationship. This guy was so great, it made me realize what an asshole my ex was, and I'm sorry to say I did vent some of that "I hate my ex, ex, blahblah" crap to him. He was tolerant, though. Lol)
Better idea - don't tell her why you want her to stop, ask her why she constantly talks about him.
That'll help get you inside her head and figure out why she's talking about him so much. Point out to her that she never seems to wanna get close to you. She might not realize she's doing it.
Talk to her, find out what's going on, get inside her head. COMMUNICATE!!
I hope this helps!

DumbBrunette23 answered Friday September 17 2004, 9:45 pm: well this is very hard. if she really loves you then she would pay attention to you. i cant really answer this ? but it seems like shes very clingy to old relationships. i always say..whats in the past stays there. hope it helps!

Karen answered Friday September 17 2004, 9:42 pm: Tell her about how you feel when she does that to you. Even though you tried and it didn't work, just try talking to her when you two are alone and explain everything. If she keeps on talking about her boyfriend, that means she might have feelings for him still but if she did, wouldn't she have dumped you already? She does love you but you have to tell her how you feel and she will stop eventually. It might be hard but just give it another try. Hope I helped and good luck with everything :) [ Karen's advice column | Ask Karen A Question ]
