Would you be upset if your boyfriend said they still care about their ex? Not want them back but just care about them.

They didn’t even date, she was an older woman and they had a sexual relationship for a year and they both cheated on each other constantly He said they had a good mental connection. And this whole older woman thing just gives me such insecurity every time I see an older woman. I don’t know how to stop this or how to work on it.

I think it’s normal to care about people that you used to be close to.

if he’s mentioned once like “i still care about her like i wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to her” it’s not that big of a deal imo bc everyone can care about an ex when you don’t have bad blood. but if he’s mentioned it like more than once unprovoked then i’d b hella sus

@cHERubexe we were playing a game and the question was “do you regret breaking up with any of youre ex’s” and he said yes and I got upset and asked what he meant and he told me that if everything went perfect and the situation was better he would’ve been with her. And then I asked if he still cared and he said yeah and then I asked if he wants to be with her and his answer was no.

No I wouldn’t.

This was a month into our relationship, now we are 6 months in

Tbh I think it’s concerning you’re still bothered by this 5 months later. Either trust your boyfriend or break up.

It wouldn’t bother me. I still care for some of my ex’s, not in a way that I’d still want to be with them but I wouldn’t wish anything bad to happen to them.

It’s normal to care about people you used to be close to. But as @Yi_eune said if you can’t move past that and it’s still bothering you, then end the relationship. Don’t ask questions if you’re going to get answers that you won’t like.

I still care for my ex and I’ve been with my bf for almost a year and a half at this point. It’s normal to care about and hope for the best for people that have previously been in your life.

I think his answer is a little weird he regrets it considering he’s with you. But I still care about exes or anyone I once had a connection with even if we don’t communicate anymore or still have them on social media because I just want the best for them and them to be happy at the end of the day.
