I've been going out with my girlfriend for 2 months or so and before I met her she had a "thing" with this guy that she ended with him just before she met me. We met, got to know each other and eventually started a relationship. The other guy was really pissed off and text her all this nasty stuff, making her feel like **** . He didn't text her for like a month after that then he randomally text her saying sorry and stuff and they began texting about general life stuff. Just a catch up I suppose.

So as far as I know, she doesn't text him first it's always him and the other night she got a text from him when I was with her and she looked at it and sighed and turned her phone off. I asked her why she still wanted to be friends with him and she said because she's known him for a long time and they were friends before their thing they had and he was a good friend before that and she wants him as a friend.

During their thing, they didn't have sex because she said she didn't trust him enough for that and she even said no to him when she was drunk. I guess I'm just a little worried that they will start their thing up again. I mean me and her are going so well, she seems so happy when she's with me and I do trust her. She told me she would stop talking to him if it really really got to me, but I don't want to be that guy that dictates who she talks to. I just worry about things easily I suppose and I don't want to lose her.

Hiya,I think you shouldn't worry about it. At the end of the day who is she with! If you trust her stop worring about it otherwise you might end up ruining your relationship sooner or later.

It doesn't sound like he has any chance at all with her since she didn't even trust him when they were together. I'd be more worried about the guy she hasn't met yet. (You do realize both of you will find other relationships in the future, right?)

You should never worry about the competition just enjoy what you have while it lasts. Relationships are just temporary and can end anytime for any reason.

Life is too short to worry about what ifs, what others will do. And its no fun at all.
