    I am still in contact with my ex bf. I have met someone knew and don't know if it is a good or bad thing to mention that I am friends with my ex. I am not long with this guy and feel somewhat at wits end to try and figure out should I say something or just leave it as it is. My ex is just a friend and both he and I have moved on but there is history there and I just want to make sure I am doing the right thing with my new fella.

    Should I tell him that I am still in contact with my ex or if he asks just say he is a friend and do not elaborate any further? I don't want to ruin anything I got with this new guy.

    Have you had similar situation? What did you do?

    I've seen this happen before. In various ways. You are best telling him right away.


    lets go down the road if you dont... if you continue to date him he will eventually find out. (friends with ex's always gets revealed at one point) And by that time it will be a bit into the relationship. This will make you appear a liar and knock the trust factor. Because you hid it.
    The other dangers are, even tho you are just friends, it will make you out like your potentially hiding something thats going on ...


    When faced with a new relationship. Its always best to come clean on certain things that are likely to get found out as the relationship progresses.
