If you are still friends with them.

My ex asked me if he would get an invite to my wedding and I said no. He then said he felt so sad. I don't know if he was being serious, but he even talked about meeting my boyfriend and possibly asking him for an invite. I don't know why he wanted to be at my wedding one day.

Are you getting married any time soon? I notice you said meeting your boyfriend and not your fiance. I would say that if you're still friends, now's the time to introduce him to your new boyfriend, see if they hit it off and are cordial with each other, then discuss it honestly with your boyfriend if and when you decide to get married.

Ultimately I think that if your partner's not comfortable with it you shouldn't invite the ex no matter how you feel about it.

Before my relationship with my husband started i was in a serious relationship with another man. We talked marriage and we talked about kids and where to live and everything and we broke up because long distance but when i did get married he was one of the first invites i gave. We are still like best friends and now my husband and him talk when ever i talk to him. I guess it depends on how close you are. And if you think he might say not to marry him. If you think he might stand up and say not to get married then dont but if he just wants to attend the wedding then invite him. i hope this helps you.

This is a hard one as I too am good friends with my ex and am in 2 minds on whether to invite him to my 30th in August...Really I think it was quite rude of him to ask in the 1st place or then saying he could ask your boyfriend about an invite. Personally I won't be inviting my ex to my wedding just too weird funny thing is his mum is thinking if i do get married that cos i am still in contact with her that she would be 1st on the list and its not so.

It depends on the situation. I personally am friends with almost all my ex's. Certain ones, would get an invite, and others wouldn't. The ones that wouldn't, would understand completely.

Mostly being how our relationship ended, and how my fiance felt about the other man, my ex.

If you and your ex are strictly good friends at that point, I don't see a problem with it. But the fact that he said "I feel so sad", sounds like he still has feelings for you.

If that's the case, I wouldn't invite him, unless your future fiance is completely comfortable with it.

And btw, him asking anyone else but you for an invite just doesn't fly in my book. Sounds like he hasn't let go.

I would invite my ex to my wedding, unless I knew he still had feelings for me and wanted to be with me again. My ex's and I all remained friends after the relationships ended so Im sure they would be happy to see me happy and marrying. Thats just me though.

I won't; friends or not. I could be awkward for your future husband. Plus, would you want your family and your husband's family and friends to see your ex at the wedding.

How would you feel if your husband invited one of his ex's? How might other people at the wedding perceive that?

Would you want your fiance's ex girlfrirend at your wedding?
Seeing my fiance's ex in a public setting would make me uncomfortable, let alone seeing her on my big day.
Talk to your fiance about the matter and see how he feels about your ex boyfriend receiving an invitation.
If he doesn't think it's a good idea, respect his wishes.
If he seems to be okay with it (which would be surprising because my fiance wouldn't want an ex at our wedding) then follow through with the invite.
Good luck.

I wouldn't. My friend had a wedding 2 years ago and invited her ex. he brought this well....floozie....and they kept leaving the reception to go have sex. They made too much noise the last time and when they came back into the reception hall, her dress was tucked into her panty hose. it was so funny. He made an idiot of himself and was asked to leave.

It's tacky of him to ask for an invitation and then try to make you feel guilty when you say no. It's your wedding and you invite whoever you want.
Don't invite him out of guilt....don't let him manipulate you into giving him an invitation.
