Depends on what he is talking about.  Have *you* talked to *him*?  Or is this a big secretfest - he hides the fact he is talking to his ex; you hide the fact you  know.  Neither is healthy.  Be open and honest with each other immediately.  Things hidden fester and grow into something ugly.

What I would do,  -and what I think you should do-, is take it very slow with the new girl involved. Honestly, it probably wasn't the best idea for you to get involved with her, but I wouldn't say to completely break it off now - that isn't realistic, and it would just hurt her because she would get your feelings twisted. \nYou have baggage. You can't make genuine transitions from person to person while carrying baggage; it'll hinder you. You'll always carry what was left from the old relationship into the new one, so forth, and so forth, and it isn't fair to the present person involved that your own issues are unsolved. It isn't a problem that you still think of your ex; it's actually very normal. You've completed an important step by acknowledging that your last relationship couldn't work, so now just prove to yourself why you deserve to move on. \nEver heard the song 'Bag Lady' by Erykah Badu?......that one goes out to you, lol.... Good Luck and God Bless.

Don't mean to be cruel to your ex but the boat has sailed, you've obviously moved on so don't give her an excuse to hold you back. Whether she's playing games to save face, because you were the first to move on, or whether she realises what she's missed I'd do the same for both: Tell her kind but firm that you've moved on and she should too. If you let her outburst achieve anything she could use it more often or feel she has a hold on you, so make sure she knows it isn't going to work. There'll be tears but you're letting her get over you

By all means, if you and your ex had a good relationship while you were together, then I think you definatly should still be friends. My ex and I are still friends and we dated over 4 years ago. Ex boyfriends tend to be better friends that any other person sometimes because they know the real you. They understand you and they do care for you. I don't see anything wrong with it at all. My ex is a better friend to me than many of my other friends are.

If you broke up then of course it is right to leave your ex.  ?!\nIf they won't compormise then not worth sticking with that person!

no, if you just broke up she should maybe give you some time. If she talks to you everday, it will seem like before. So at first it's probably not a good idea. But if its been a while then its fine if it doesn't bother you.

it takes a long while to get over someone especially if that was your first.  take your time.  cry all you want.  let it all out.  some people might tell you to try and surround yourself with friends and family.  it might cheer you up, but i think it's okay to feel down for a while.  because no matter what you'd do, you might think about your ex like what did you do, what could you have done, or why your ex left you.   i really do not think it's better to suppress or cover up your feelings by having your mind occupied with something else.  but it's better if you get rid of anything that would remind you of your ex, and if you cut off all the communication means to your ex such as phone number, e-mail, and IM.  delete them all, so you wouldn't be able to talk to him at all.  also, i don't think that finding someone new too soon is such a good idea.  rebound is only rebound.  just think that it's not the end of the world although it feels like it right now.  just take your time and rest up.

I know that I won't get 10 points for this answer but it's the one you need to read: \n\nYou need to stop seeing your Ex... The communication that you have with him keeps the spark alive and it's not really fair to your current BF. Frankly, on a level, you're cheating on him and the test of this is: If he knew you were still "friends" and talking, would he be cool with it? \n\nIf you still have a thing for your Ex, you should break up with your BF and go out with your Ex. Here's the thing though: If you have been off and on for so long, how do you think it will be if you marry him? On for how long then off when? Will you have kids when you decide to go off again? What impact will it have on them? This pattern will not end when you marry, trust me. \n\nMy final advice: Quit communicating with the EX and focus on your relationship with the BF. Probably not the answer you were looking for but the right one. \n\nGood luck.

No, neither. You're just holding onto the past. Obviously, you still have feelings for your ex. Time to let go, push her and any feelings away. Be with your sweetie, show her how much you love her. Because if you hold onto those feelings, they will get in the way of the relationship down the road. Set the past free.

Well I think that depends on their relationship before they broke up and their relationship now.If he is still interested in the ex then no. But if he genuinely just a caring person who wants to be friends with his ex because that is the type of person he is and it is not coming between your new relationship then yes.

You can still care for him, but think about the reason why he is your ex.  And the fact that you haven't talked to each other since the breakup shows that there was obviously something wrong with the relationship.\n\nDon't waste your time dwelling on the past and wondering "what if..."\n\nLook to the future and think about your own needs.

When they have made it clear that they have moved on. If they have new activities and new friends and are happy.\n\nYou are best off doing the same. Ironically if you are independent and happy and out doing interesting things our ex may find you more attractive, but you should do these things for yourself.

First of all, why is your ex girlfriend talking to you? Is it just to talk? That's okay. Your girlfriend should understand.\n\nBut if she wants to fool around or get back with you, you should not talk to her unless you do want to fool around or get back with her. In that case, be upfront with your girlfriend about it.
