Well I would say that there are some relationships for a guy that meant something and made them grow and learn that in a way they feel compelled to keep in touch with the ex. Specially if things maybe did not end very good at that time. That's my thought

I'm in a serious relationship with a girl, but I'm also on very good terms with two of my exes: one male, one female. The first is my closest male friend, and if I got married he'd be my best man. The second is now married.
Why do people here have such a problem with such arrangements? I don't and my girlfriend doesn't. I'm not cheating on her and I never have. It's about trust.

oh man, i've gone thru this where me and a g/f were still good friends with our exs. It really depends on your security and the guys relationship with his ex. If he tells you when he and his ex talk then you have nothing to worry about, but if he hides the fact they talk then there may still be some feelings there. Just talk to him about it. If he loves you and it makes you uncomfortable that they still talk then address it and he should put you before his ex.

If your seriously involved with a person you should have no problem with them keeping in touch with thier ex. If this person had a real relationship with their ex they still might have feelings and genuwinely care for their ex's well-being. If so you have choose a good person to be with.

I've stayed friends with most of my exes for a while afterwards, but it generally fizzles out, and we lose contact after a few years.
My wife has not stayed friends with any of hers, and I know she doesn't like that she feels a little jealous if I'm still friends with mine. Because I know she does feel this, I don't stay in too close contact with any of them now, but I haven't cut them off completely.

I know you asked for guys only to answer this but please read my comment. My daughter was engaged to someone for 7 years and they split up when they realised it wasn't going anywhere. They have remained friends to this day. She was with her last partner for 10 years before they split up, again they are still extremely good friends with him explaining to his new partner that my daughter will always have a place in his life as a friend. We brought our children up to be friendly and respectful and as a result they have retained the friendship of their previous partners. Their reasons being that although they may not be "in love" with them, they still love them as friends. Believe me it is an innocent love.

Hang on hang on, I am still friends with nearly all my exes, and they are all with other girls now. I know that with one of them she basically went mental and said she would dump him if he kept speaking to me, but he stood his ground, and i spoke to her and assured her we were just friends. I was living two hundred miles away too, that's what was so funny. I have no issue with my bfs talkign to their exes, as long as they don't lie about it, or if they go see them they just let me know, so I don't feel like there is any secrets I'm guna find out. And I know you girls are going be screaming what? you let him go see his ex? Well, yeah, he can go see and speak to who ever he want's, I'm not his jailer, and if I didn't trust him, why am I with him? If someone is guna cheat or go back to their ex, then there is really not alot you can do about it!

i think it is ok, but it would make me feel uncomfortable for my boyfriend to keep in touch with an ex if they talked excessively. just saying hi every once in awhile is fine, but if they talk on a normal basis about things like he and i would talk about, that would make me jealous. me and my boyfriend both (thankfully) do not make it a point to talk to our exes.
