Is previous feelings getting in the way of our relationship?
Question Posted Monday November 19 2012, 10:46 am
I'm 16, I've been with my boyfriend for a couple of months now, but somehow I feel like he still has feelings for his ex girlfriend. He has kept her texts from when they were together, all the texts she has sent him about feelings, there all on his inbox. I know she still texts him, especially when she's had a drink because he's told me; I'm not sure what he texts back to her though. I know he does text her back. I've asked him if he still cares about her, but when I've asked before, he kind of went mad, but he said he didn't. I'm so confused because why would he keep all the messages from her, why would he still text her? I don't really say anything because I know it'll cause an argument between us. It does get to me and I really do get jealous, I know it's the wrong thing to do but I did go through his phone and see on his inbox all her messages from when they were in a relationship and I saw some recent ones. I didn't have time to go through his sent messages though! I'm really confused...

I think its rude of him to get mad instead of understanding how you feel. I would be upfront with hoe you feel, do not accuse him of anything but let him know that it bothers you and you feel it interferes with your,relationship. Here is a fact; someone cannot truly move on if they are still hung up on someone else. Sounds like he is hiding his feelings for his ex from you and gets mad because he doesnt want to face it?...
If I were in your shoes maybe I would go my own way. Tell him you arent a package deal and will not be his rebound. find someone who has the time for you and only you. Not you and someone else.. [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
