It isn't unacceptable. Some people have issues, that's all. You will have to decide which relationship is more important and which one you want in your life and work accordingly.

There's no harm in being friends with an ex. You were married for 27 years, that's a long time. You have a good history with eachother and you love eachother, even if that love has gone away some or changed into something else like friendship, you cannot deny love.

First, why SHOULD the exes "be friends"??
They should each focus on their own lives. Get over the marriage and divorce. Move on and enjoy life. Most of the time, this means not having to drag old memories (many negative) along.
The bf is not material to the question. Sounds like you want to be more in the picture than you should be.

If you are still married, I see why a bf being involved would be a problem. Third wheels after 27 year marriage or 2 year marriage are just that. A third wheel.

It's not un-acceptable...27 years builds a lot of history. Sounds like the bf is a schlub?

Not always unacceptable. Depends on the circumstances, children, etc. Also depends on how "close" the friendship is.

it isnt,,your boyfriend is insecure and unrealistic,27 years,,if after that you cant be friends whats the point? be glad you can still call him one because so many are busy trying to think of ways to destroy their ex,s and you are one of the lucky ones,,dont allow anyone to tell you it is wrong,,it may be for them but this is about you,,not you and your ex,,just you!

If you really care about your ex, you will be a friend but stay away and not be a problem for a new relationship. If you only care about yourself you will refuse to see why your involvement could be a problem.

cause, it is. If you have slept with and had an intimate relaionship w/someone...that person can't be in your life, boyfriend or not, keep her away, you are just tempting fate, not a good thing to do.
I am sure you already know what the right thing to do is, if it bothers your spouce of 27 YEARS...how can it be right.????????
