I(F26) have been dating my boyfriend (M26) for 2 years. Recently my boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend (F26) texted me that last year my boyfriend told the ex-girlfriend that he wants to dip me and asked her repeatedly to break up with her boyfriend. She said he wanted a more “religious” girl (in our culture we do prioritize religiosity). She said that she told she would not go back to him even if she was single and that she’s currently in a committed relationship. She also said he contacted her over the summer and emailed her that “he almost drowned and was thinking of her.” She said she deleted this email and blocked him. Also two days after my parents invited him and his family to a restaurant for food (early oct 2023), he texted her again on his work phone asking how she is. She didn’t know it was his work phone so she asked him “who is this”. He told her he had a car accident and asked how she was. Then he sent an apology saying he should have not texted her. She blocked his work number. She has screenshots to prove that he texted her. When I confronted my boyfriend, he said he was egged on by his parents to send the last text because they all want him to marry a “religious” girl rather than me. The other two times he contacted her he said it was a “moment of weakness”. He said at this point he will never contact her again and no longer wants to be with her. I am skeptical because I believe he could still go weak for another girl. Should I breakup with him over this?

​

TLDR: Boyfriends keep trying to call/text his ex-girlfriend with the intention of possibly getting back together with her. Should I break up with him over this?

  1. I mean, I understand that once you are in a relationship where you are in love you become blind but here it’s pretty clear he’s with you till someone else comes by.

    Don’t waste any of your time with this junkie.

    Either for that girl or someone else in 2 3, 10 years you know where it’s gonna end.

    He’s not gonna change, once someone is corrupted like that there’s no coming back.

    Save yourself from more wasted time and even more pain in the future

  2. Honestly? The guy is not being 100% in this relationship, he already has one foot out the door. Don’t let yourself get treated like that – he seems really obsessed with the ex… and it’s more than one instance, not just a single ‘moment of weakness’

  3. Why are you still dating this guy? You know he would dump you in a heartbeat if his ex wanted him back. Do you really want to be your boyfriends backup plan?
