Texting your ex...when you're in a new relationship

Texting an ex is fine, provided it's not all the time and it isn't suggestive, (both about the relationship and sexually - basically it should be platonic). I wouldn't text a friend something like that, unless we were very very close, and even then it's doubtful. Does he initiate a lot? Call him out on it.

Yeah, I wouldn't be comfortable with that at all. I'd get it if they'd broken up long ago and remained friends for a while, but it sounds as if it's a bit more than that.
I'd definitely let him know that it's getting to you. You deserve the truth, so ask him if he still has feelings for this ex of his, and if he's willing to cut all ties to stay in a relationship with you.
Talk to him. Seriously. And don't beat around the bush - say it as it is, and how it's making you feel, because this doesn't seem fair on you.
Good luck.

were you the rebound?

Everybody wants to be civil with the person they broke up with and I understand that staying friends is nice, but sending them texts like "awww I'm watching (tv show) and it makes me think of you " ?

He always tells me that his ex is a complete **** and that he has no desire to remain friends with them - so what's up with that? One day all he has is negative things about his ex and the next thing I know he's sending those kinds of texts

When we first got together we had the talk about our previous relationships, like you do, and he said that his ex is a horrible person, arrogant, he wasn't happy in the relationship for a long time and that he never wants to see them again. Yet when I confronted him about this text he acted like I was stupid and said "well of course I want to be friends! I went out with her, she's a nice person otherwise I'd have never went out with her!" - [bold]it just makes me feel like he was originally saying that he disliked his ex to make me feel somehow safe?[/bold]
If I knew he wanted to be friends from the beginning i wouldn't have a problem with it, it's the fact that he pretends he hates her but obviously doesn't that confuses me

When we met he has only broken up with his ex for about a month.
That question, "am I the rebound" was the first question I asked him and he told me no no no.
We've been together 6 months now.

I think I might have been the rebound after all :/

Also, how long were they together?

they were only together a couple of months! No more than 4 or 5

How do you know he has been sending such texts...? If you have been going through his phone you don't trust him, and if you don't trust him there is no point being with him.
