Keeping In Touch With The Ex After Marriage. Bad Idea? by oamronnie(f): 3:28pm On Jul 03, 2014
Let me tell you how to get into trouble after marriage: Keep in touch with your ex girlfriend!
What are you doing?! Why are you scouring for trouble? You know she still has feelings for you.
Why are you texting and calling her, speaking in that low sensitive tone as if you never married
It almost always begins with a 'How are you?' A stiff 'I'm fine. You?' So so! That's at 9am. Then at 1pm your mind wanders. Now you want to know how she's doing in her new unit at work. As the Good Samaritan you just want to make sure her feelings are ok; you know, smooth things over... Then she asks if you've eaten. You smile. Kind of reminds you of old times. You smile again. Sheepish smile
Then her ping comes an hour later, followed by "Missing you!" You hesitate, but to be polite you send back "Missing u 2!
And the texts proceed along that corridor, throw in one or two borderline comments and jokes.
Then it becomes "Let me buy you a drink. For old times’ sake." Both of you know what you're doing.
You know you're working to a common answer. You know you're skirting an edge. But you really don't know which edge it is, whether Sheol or Abyss. "Why not?!" she replies. "But you know I can't be seen out with you. You are now MISTERRR! How about my new apartment. You haven't seen it. "Won't mind!" you say, excited in your belly. You're flirting with temptation and you know it. But you are cool! Can handle it!
At the close of work you nervously drive to her apartment. She's just a friend. You can visit an old friend, right? Well she's waiting for you. She makes sure to kiss you on the cheek. Nothing untoward. A friend's kiss. She's just arrived from work too. Only you notice the apartment is rather too cool for that statement to be true. Nervous, you stand up. To look around the apartment. You like that painting. Which one? You're backing her. Oh that one! Now she's standing next to you. Close. You perspire under the skin. You know she wants you. And you want her. But who'll make the move? You look at her. She looks up at you...those round eyes. Why did I let you get away, she's saying...softly, her hands on your chest. Then comes your kiss. It's a tentative kiss. And then the kiss changes nationality. It becomes a French kiss. And the clothes start flying off. Greedily. Just like in the movies. You know you ought to stop. You know you can still stop. But you don't. Then the clasp comes undone. The zippers follow suit. Like a Hollywood script. Now you're an adulterer. All because you couldn't cut off ties with an ex. It ended for a reason, you know.
There are relationships you must cut off once you marry. Especially relationships with high passion potential.
In a marriage, two is a company, three is a crowded stadium. You can't crowd in your ex girlfriend into your marriage. You're going to create trouble. Women are very territorial. And to a woman her marriage and her man are real estate.

@OP. Why on earth did you have to go dub jacknjilllive?
Bros Leke can sue you for this if he finds out. It called plagiarism
The least you could do was to give credit to the source and not make it look like yours.
Stop the copy cat syndrome and be original. You short change yourself and thwart your creativity.

Truly! There is a burst of flame one gets when one makes contact with an ex. Especially, when the breakup was not a "bad" one and if one is not in a too exciting relationship

U know u shud stop but u don't.

If the eyes doesn't look the neck won't turn. So if u nor want wahala. Jejely delete that ex's number when u walk down d aisle

To me it's not a bad idea tho depends on the line of communication...

I called her on her birthday just to wish her longevity

She's on my bbm list... we only chat about her work n family

When I'm in nigeria I always see her esp at her bank because she's my account officer n I run most of my bank transaction through that particular bank


We don't discuss about our relationship way back because I have moved on n she's married


My opinion tho

Why is it that men are so scared of their wives' ex?
If you're way better than the ex in everything including being romantic, why will she even remember him?
When I was young I promised myself never to nod a woman, but if that's what it takes to give 100% satisfaction and forget about her guys from history, I'll gladly be a bushman grin grin

The best is to cut off any ties that bind both of u together. It starts with simple 'hello' but at end it results to adultery. And u start going about with guilty conscience that last for months.

You will be amazed at the number of people who engage in such and before you judge, pray you do not get caught in the trap also. Its not as if they all planned for it to become an extra marital affair, sometimes it becomes almost inevitable.

Re: Keeping In Touch With The Ex After Marriage. Bad Idea? by Nobody: 7:04am On Jul 04, 2014
The situation you just painted is for people without self control.. If you can't stick to ur wife, don't get married.. When a man has surging li'b'ido such as you painted, he would invariably cheat on his wife and it doesn't have to be with an ex... Cutting off ties with all ur ex is somewhat difficult especially if you have a relationship with the person that is not sexual... What if the person is important to you somewhat, has helped you in desperate situations, is a business partner maybe, is a confidant... You cannot cut off such people from your life simply because you got married... You might need their help someday and your wife wouldn't be able to render.... Marriage does not have a manual... You are trying, "as most women do", to paint all ur husbands ex as enemies... Not all men have no control and for those that do, there is nothing you can do about it.. They would cheat on you even if you shoot all their exes... Know the man you are getting married to...
