My brother and extended family still hang around my EX-boyfriend. It kills me because I have a new boyfriend (been dating him for years now) but up to now I feel like no one hasn't even taken the chance to even get to know him because when we have family get togethers they're still hanging around my EX! I need advice-

Sorry to say, but they probably just like your ex, and don't want to stop seeing him just because you did. You might want to sit down with your family and discuss your feelings. Let them know that you'd appreciate it if they would pay more attention to your current boyfriend. Don't try to get them to stop being friendly with your ex, that could create a whole new set of problems for you. Good luck!

Just let your EX hang around. He knows that your bro and family still likes him and he just shows up at get togethers to spite you. If he's there around get-togethers and your man's with you, show that you're really into your new man. Extreme PDA . . . hell I'd even make out with my man in the wasroom with the door unlocked so they can catch you in the act! That'll wake them up!

It's not important for your family to "get to know" your boyfriend as long as they are polite to him. I've had too many situations where family members were downright rude to my boyfriends or their families were rude to me. Trust me things could be much worse.
I used to have a problem with my mother wanting me to relay gifts from her to my ex. It took years for her to acknowledge that I was right to break up with him, but it did finally happen. I'd say let things slide as long as they are not being hostile. It will eventually sort itself out.

if it has been a while since you and him were together than i see no problem with him staying friends with your family. Your new man should be enough to keep you busy and not worry about what the old guy does...you broke it off with the old boyfriend, but that doesnt break off the friendship he aquired with other members of your family...dont let it stop you from going to get-togethers...and tell your family they dont have to choose between the two guys to all get along together.

That is a touchy situation.. it happened to me with my exHUSBAND and it destroyed my relationship with that part of my family because he was only around them to talk bad about me and to try to get custody of my kids (because they have money). I would be very wary. I dont know what you can really do because nothing I did worked. I have disowned those people. They dont even see my kids anymore (2 years now) and have never met my new son with my new husband.

You kin would desire to purpose to be certain why you men broke up. you need to additionally ask her to no longer communicate with your and you will desire to ask your loved ones to do the comparable. additionally, she would desire to be certain who's the recent guy or woman on your existence. you may no longer blame your ex for wanting to appreciate quite if she held deep thoughts for you. perhaps an casual communique together with her to permit her down the right way would help.
