When an old flame comes back into your life and there’s nothing you can really do about it..?

It’s not a job, I’ll be finishing my degree out, sadly.. so it’s not really a choice at this point.

I know - I would be pretty anxious about it if the roles were reversed... However, I definitely don’t plan to throw away my current relationship. I love my boyfriend and the life we have created this far together. Plus, I’ve been very transparent with my boyfriend about everything - he has met and knows all about man one and the past we had. He knows I’m anxious about having to be around man one - but my boyfriend trusts me, and doesn’t seem worried about it at all - which brings me a bit more comfort. No matter what, nothing will happen with man one.
