Question Posted Wednesday December 13 2006, 4:13 pm
17/f/usa. my fiancee' lives overseas where he works. and i know it's hard on him for us to be separated, but hopefully he's comming for a visit soon. anywayz, he has an ex that he was really close with. i mean it seems that they would have been soul mates. She knew EVERYTHING bout him, even if he didn't. well he got sick and he doesn't deal well with being ill, so his ex's mother was supposed to take care of him cuz she's a doctor,but his ex ended up doing it instead. she tries really hard to get back with him, and even offers and tries giving him "special gifts". he was in the shower and she stepped in with him and tried to seduce him but in the end, he didn't do anything with her, which i am very very thankful for. but im worrying that maybe she or some other girl will be there for him when he needs it and it won't be me, so he will go for them. i know it sounds stupid, but what should i do? i don't want to loose him, and i know he wouldn't cheat, but he and his ex were really tight, and i don't want her to succeed in seducing him. plz help if you can:) thank you

But by telling you either he is trying to make you jealous/get your attention, or on the other hand he really wants to be with her and he's just being honest with you. By all the details & stuff he has told you about her coming in the shower, trying to seduce him, etc, it seems like he is just trying to make you jealous or get some attention. Personally I wouldnt deal with his ex hanging around like that so if its bothering you then you should really put your foot down and tell him how you feel. If youre engaged then a lot of difficult stuff will come up in the course of your marriage so you need to be able to tell him how you really feel about all this. I mean if she was just a friend or if she was being respectful of your relationship then she wouldnt be acting like that, she obvoiously has very little self respect and you should tell him you dont appreciate it.
