A friend of mine had to get a restraining order against a girlfriend. She kept stalking him, started stalking his ex wife he is friends with (also my friend). He contacted her ex boyfriend to learn this happened to him too so he went with him to Court and told his similar experience. It helped and the restraining order was granted.

After that instance, I suggest he contact the ex's of any future girlfriends to avoid this situation happening.


There is a good chance I would follow suit if single. There is no reason any boyfriend of mine is barred from contacting my ex boyfriends. I have nothing to hide and appreciate he wants someone stable

Also he claims the ex boyfriend called him the last time around which was just last week. any thoughts id appreciate it. Just seems a bit assinine!!!
They should be amicable for sure, but "friends that talk every day"? NO. His contacting your EX and asking questions about you and your relationship is totally unacceptable. That was behind your back, it was immature of him, it was sneaky and it was wrong. I would ditch this guy now.

Most guys don't even want you to talk about past relationships, they don't like it. It's not normal what he is doing, and I would not tolerate it.

Yep. It is also inherently biased. Maybe the guy he is talking to has a vendetta against the OP and would try to sabotage her new relationship.

Further, anyone who does something like that is probably then going to compare the two relationships. I can hear it already, "Joe Schmoe told me that you swung from a chandelier with HIM. Why won't you do it with ME?"

It is just a childish way of approaching relationships.

Until one of them has a secret grudge he has against you for breaking up with him, says something untrue about you or your family, or decides to be malicious another way. You may think you have nothing to hide until one shares something about you that you don't want shared. The old "I have nothing to hide" is a crock of bull. EVERYONE has something to hide.

What I wonder is how anyone knows how to find someone's ex-partner? I am not talking about public divorce records. I mean just an ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend. There is no way anyone would be able to find mine. They are not on my social media, and I would not allow just anyone I'm dating to see my social media regardless. It would have to be a serious relationship first. Then, if he did somehow find them, they would probably laugh at him for being so childish. I can nearly guarantee that they would ignore the person or their response would be, "If you are coming to me, you are not right for Seija. She hates sneaky people."

Tell him you're not ready for a relationship and that he is too good for you and he could do better. Flatter him and maybe he'll believe it. Worked for me once.

Set him up on a blind date with someone you dislike. Kill two birds with one stone

Are you trying to set up another “How I met your Mother” situation?

Drop. Him. Now.

He sounds controlling, overbearing and disrespectful…and stalky.

Huge red flag. Legit worried for you.
