You asked for "straightforward and honest." |
I realize that what i wrote does sound as though i were using him, however i must say that truly i am not. We have a lot of mutual interests, we are very open about our relationship and completely honest to each other. He has since been told about my seeing the ex twice now. He was upset and mad, understandably so, but if i were using him in anyway i think i already would have ran into the arms of my ex.
During our talk he also informed me that he has found himself thinking back to his ex-girlfriend on occasion. Although he has not spoken to her, it's understood that feelings for those we were involved with prior, just dont turn off overnight, especially when the relationships we both had were over 3 years.
So in other words, we are together, we dont plan on ending our relationship for a trip through the past with the ex's..... it's difficult, but we are working on it and definitely not giving up on each other that easily.
