My boyfriend is constantly on me about talking to my ex: advice?

Omg. Is anyone else’s boyfriend CONSTANTLY up your A** and asking questions about “why are you talking to your child’s father.” “What’s he saying” “what’re you guys talking about” it’s literally constant annoying questions I can’t stand it. Like my boyfriend is a father HIMSELF he should understand… I have to stay in contact and I send pics of my daughter to HER FATHER. but it’s an ISSUE. It’s literally an argument every single time. I’m literally pregnant with my boyfriends child and I want NOTHING to do with my first daughters dad.

I would straight up tell him that you will not allow him to interfere with you co parenting with your daughter dad. And unfortunately unless that is something he can get pass it might be better to end things. I wouldn’t tolerate someone treating me like I was doing something wrong for co parenting. I hope you have a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery :heartbeat:

It’s called jealousy, control & insecurities on his part. You both need to sit down and have a heart to heart conversation about this issue, your boundaries and his boundaries regarding it and what you both will and will not accept regarding it. If either one of you can’t respect the others boundaries, decisions & judgements on this issue or you don’t feel safe with one another then it would be time to go separate ways.

Tell him that he’s her father and he deserves to be apart of her life. You’re not talking about ANYTHING other than the kid you two had together. He needs to understand that coparenting is what’s best for the kid, doesn’t matter if the new partners like it or not.

He’s insecure and thinking the worst. Maybe just get him involved abit when talking to her dad like what do you think of this picture doesn’t she look cute I’m just gonna send it to her dad… or just saying I’m just gonna text him this would probably put his mind at rest. He’s always going to be on your arse because at one point you loved that guy so he’s always gonna think there’s a possibility that love has never left. But on the same boat you should be able to keep her father updated and talk about your child.

You know you want him back…file for child support, custody, and he obviously has his own phone, let him take his own pictures. Getting pregnant by the first one didn’t make him stay, guess what, getting pregnant by this one probably won’t make him stay either…sounds like hes.about to lose some weight…all of yours…good luck…

Sadly he will never change……

Ew. My ex did this along with other controlling things. Wasn’t fun. Glad I got away.

If the child is less then 15 then you should/or have to, but if any older then I wouldn’t. The kid has a mouth and can do the talking!!! Unless an emergency

My man offers to drop off the kids to my ex and that’s the only time he asks me anything about my ex! :blush:

I know how you feel been there done that

Why do you have a child with someone this controlling from the get go

I could see him being upset if there wasn’t a child involved. I get it, my boyfriend isn’t my son’s biological father and I stay in touch with my sons dad only to communicate about my son. And I tell my boyfriend everything. I don’t have to tell him, but I do.
