This guy that I really like was talking to me about why he was single and how he feels that a foundation is needed for any relationship. Well, I agreed with him, but, I made a comment saying that I thought my ex-boyfriend and I would always be friends because we have a foundation. Also, my ex-boyfriend called while he was at my house and I told him that I was talking to the new guy that I like and the new guy got mad because he said that it was none of my ex-boyfriends business that I was talking to him. This new guy and I have had a sexual relationship and I really like him and I think he really likes me but, I don't know what to do to make things right. How do I redeem myself after this to let him know that I really like him. Even if it seems that my ex-boyfriend and I are still in contact with each other?

obviously he's not comfortable with you talking to your ex. maybe it's a little bit of a self esteem thing? but you just need to reasure him that he is the apple of your eye.

1) Are you positive everything is sealed up and finished with the ex?
2) Don't talk to the ex around the new guy.
3) Don't talk to the ex ABOUT the new guy with the new guy around.
4) Other than those careless mistakes, I don't think you broke any laws.
I have a 2 apology statute that I stick to. I say it once, and I mean it. If necessary, I say it again. But that's it. Try not to plead forgiveness. It shows guilt. You really didn't do anything TOO terrible. Apologize and try to brush it off. A hummer usually does the trick ;)

if you are faithful (if that is appropriate here) then the new guy has no right to tell you who you can talk to or see ---- it sounds more like all he wants is a "friends with benefits" relationship --- if he cared really cared he would not have flown off the handle and talked to you and maybe you both could have said what you want from the relationship ---- best wishes

First of all, don't be so eager to please the new guy. If he thinks you'll just bend over backwards every time he thinks something, he'll end up running your life. If he's truly offended, apologize and get on with the relationship. If he can't let it go, then he has issues that you don't wanna deal with anyway.
