live with my boyfriend but before we
started a relationship and he moved in with me, he
was living with another
woman. Since they signed a lease together for a
rental apartment, he decided to contribute his share of
the rent till the lease ran out. Once the lease was
over, she stopped contacting him, but a few months
later, she is now calling and texting him late at night.
I've asked him to tell her to stop and he said he would
but but she's been doing it again. She's been sending
him her
suggestive pics! But I asked him to no longer speak
to her because of the
games and that she is not
respecting us as a couple. I even once got on phone
with him and asked her to stop! But it hasn't. Now
what?"
This
ex-girlfriend of his definitely is either
desperate for money or for him and she is trying to
manipulate him so that he can
breakup with you and get back with her. I think you
need to tell him that while you understand it takes time
to end
a past relationship and cleanup the
mess of a breakup, he needs to understand that he
cannot have you but also
keep in touch with his ex as if nothing has changed.
Be firm, assertive, and set deadlines. Do not get angry
or create drama with tears and all but ask him to get
his act together by a certain date. I am sure that he
will get the message. |
