Genuinely friends, hanging out, talking through hard things, not a problem. I don’t mean friends that flirt. But if you’re friends with an ex it shouldn’t be a strain on new relationships.
I find it difficult to believe that a relationship that had sexual and emotional ties could return to a platonic place, or that a new partner would be chill with that relationship existing.

I had a perspective shift this week that I thought this community would appreciate. My recent secret weapon? Lead with love. Also known as LWL, because the first “L” is flexible.
Lead with love
Learn with love
Listen with love
Let (them) with love
Etc.
but I have found that this mindset, of approaching every situation from the perspective of an admirer, the forgiveness and grace of a lover, the attentiveness that I give to a loved one, has in-fact helped me to become infatuated with every opportunity. I feel in love with life, which is crazy bc it was just my choice: lead with love.
I see lots of discussions about death march, but I’m wondering does anyone else play in a lower level or do I just suck :))
Hi guys. My bf (27M ) and I (25F) have been together for 3 years. Last night a song came on in the car and he started crying, saying it reminded him of a different time. Now normally I would be empathetic, but this has happened before and he explained to me that the song was a song him and his ex used to share together. Anyway, it made me a little upset, I think it’s fine to be nostalgic but full blown crying? YEARS into a relationship with someone else? Idk it made me feel really bad and under appreciated, or just that he isn’t over his ex yet.
