Hello any1 who decides to read this....well this january im goin to San Jose to meet my fiance's parents and family....im oober excited weve been together for one year and she makes me happy....anywho im nervous about meeting her ex...she does not like me because i made past mistakes we both have at the beginning but my fiance only told her about what i did...i know selfish but i love her...regardless how do i deal with an ex?...when she thinks all these bad things about you without ever meeting you...im just confused a lil about how i react when i finally meet her...ugh!...that is all muchas gracias...
There are many reasons people split up, and when they meet someone new, the ex, most of the time, feels jealousy. Other times, its concern for the kids taking on another 'parent' figure. Though no one can ever really 'replace' the real daddy or mommy, they can become good friends, if the kids feel comfortable enough.
As far as meeting your fiance's ex, well, thats a toughie. I have a friend who shares a house with both her ex husbands, heck, they get along great and even work at the same job together. There never really was any discontent when the 2nd met the first.
Ive dealt with the friction though, when my 2nd met my first, neither of them though the better of the other, but now all 3 of us get along better than we ever did in life.
Toodles, I know about this whole incestuous thing lesbians have with their exes who become "friends". Tell your true love to dump this chic. She's an EX for crikeys sakes! Dang!

I agree, no kids involved the EX doens't need to be involved either. Build on the two of you, and leave all the baggage in the past.
and why does she care what the ex thinks anyway? .....
I have to agree with the others. If you and your SO are affianced, then why does the ex's opinion carry so much wieght?
I have no problem being friendly with an ex but he/she would have no say in future relationships.
If they are my friend they should want me to be happy but sometimes an ex's opinion can be colored by jealousy, kinda I used to have that and now I don't.
Go, meet the parents, be polite to the ex but don't stress yourself!
