Is it possible to remain friends with exes? Me, [28/F] with my new BF [34/M], he doesn't think so.

Lol, Little story about my last relationship. I dealt with infidelity. I worked like an animal she played. that's ok, i moved on with my life....now, my most recent "ex" pulls the best friends ex card on me. I figured " i need to be the mature one" so i let it be. (never again) You know....mature. So i am on a business meeting, i take a client out to lunch, and what do you know......my ex and her ex having lunch. My heart stopped and i watched in horror as he was playing footsie under the table with her. Now i get how you feel....."he just needs to be understanding".

Once you put ultimatums and draw lines....get ready to be single. Again. I get that you want to have your cake and eat it to0, but even if he agrees to it.....lol he is bullshitting you. He already told you how he felt....so it goes like this. I am going to tell you how it will go down..... One night you guys argue....he leaves and talks to his friends...friends start to pump shit into his head (well because you have already compromised your relationship by still stringing along your other ex) they call you a vine swinger aka emotional succubus. He gets drunk....calls his ex or talks to some girl that's digging on him and....you know the rest. But know way "he would never do that". Now i knowwww you dont want to believe this....but you will never domesticate this man, he will lie to you....directly to your face. I f you really want this relationship.....its time to (lol) leave your ex behind. ALL MEN WILL TELL YOU WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR. As for my ex......well lets just say that she just got a second dog and is attending her ex's wedding. (41 and single) Found out that this awesome guy ran and still is running trains on these dumb bitches on backpage. She is so dumb in thinking that he has honor. (straight up told me the same things) But.....i broke it off with her. I was reminded as he and many others are in today's world....there's a bus that comes by every 15 minutes. So i will tell you to "be mature" and concentrate on your current relationship and end the old one. Be a women. Dont let other people take control of your mistakes, because if you fuck up one time....your "ex" will be the topic of discussion.
