Boyfriend worries.. What's new!

    I've lived in the same area and moved in the same social circles as my boyfriend for almost six years, we are together two. We have a wonderful relationship and I'm very happy with him, but sometimes I find it hard to stop thinking of his past, doesn't help that I saw a lot of it. His marriage broke up while I knew him and after that he I suppose naturally enough went a bit wild with the ladies.... Up until about six months before we were together I saw him with a number of different women, most of whom I would know on some level. We've always gotten on well and some months before we became an item I realised I had feelings for him, which for a while he seemed to return, however that time things didn't work out and he hurt me pretty bad, okay very long winded story short, eventually we got together and I didn't trust him an inch, eventually realised that this time he wasn't going to hurt me and I've not looked back, well not much.. When we got together first I asked him about a women I knew he'd been with, he denied it even though she'd told me previously herself, this didn't help with the trust thing, but he's the kind of man who despises confrontation and would do anything for a peaceful life. Right, I've recently found out that before we were together he was with a mutual friends sister, okay not my business was a long time ago, but at the time she was 23 years younger than him, well over the age of consent but it's left a very bad taste in my mouth! He doesn't know I know this, and I'm reluctant to bring it up because it happened before me and therefore isn't any of my business. It just makes me feel a bit icky... I'm really just wondering what other's opinions on this are?

    You're right, it's none of your business.

    I assume you're in your 40's at this stage, well past the stage where stuff like this should bother you.

    He's a legend by the way.

    Lol... I was expecting one those replies...
    Seriously? Legend?
    You're right I fully agree that it's none of my business but just felt a little odd about the age thing!! I can't imagine being with a bloke 20 years younger...

    And I didn't ask for your opinion. Sometimes we just get.
