When parting with someone (whether boyfriend/girlfriend), and moving on to another person, dont dwell on the past by telling him or her bad things about your ex. dont bad mouth your ex to either your new partner or friends. but if you must say anything simply say ur ex was a great guy/girl, but things just didnt work out between the two of you. Shikena! Cos that's the best way to move on and start afresh.

Noted!

how would i say someone was great when he wasn't even close to the 'g'?
I understand not talking about one's ex at all but painting him as what he wasnt?
Nigga please!

I don't see the need talking about my ex in the first place..

Even wen he asks?

Let's clarify this: does my ex still get a glowing recommendation when he decided to leave the rel or whatever we were doing by simply disappearing without informing me, as if I was a child who couldn't handle the truth (apparently ladies, we are old enough to be told "I want to knack you, face to the wall from behind", but we are not grown up enough to be told "I've had enough, pls let's end this", lol); or after he has confirmed my replacement, then breaks up with me, only for me to see my replacement a week later; or comes to see me and starts chasing my roomie, asking for advice how to dump me and get her, causing she and I to clash? Like, when exactly do we get to be honest about our ex, or we just go "he was awesome!" Hahahaha

Easy said than done, clearly OP has never been burnt badly before.

LOL, your ex clearly never had class or style, assuming he actually did that to you and certainly deserved all the bad mouthing you care to dish out after him

Yeah even when he asks..
He is my ex for a reason, so if I decide not to talk about him
I am sure my BF will understand...

aite, guys can b funny atimes

Maria-Goretti:

Oh yes, I totally agree

.

sanb: well there is a reason for him being an ex and that is what he would remain as an ex so no need to say good or bad about him as the person is now in the past and he would remain in the past....

You are right Op, but it takes a great mind to do that.

if u say ur ex was great i could start wondering why the rlshp ended.
if you paint ex bad i could start wondering, if ex was no good, am i going to be good to you?
but if he wants to know i can tell why we couldnt go on
i could say less abt ex afterwards and fucos on the present.
i wouldnt want to remember an ex bottom talk of singing it to my present partner.

and i woudnt care about ur ex details as long as it doesnt affect my present.
