I got this one not even an hour ago. This is a female asking me why would her boyfriend want to keep into contact with his ex-girlfriend...I know that this is a super easy one and it's real short but be nice : )

Well, this may be tricky.

I believe there could be two reasons....

a) he is not totally over her and wants to monitor what is happening in her life, maybe hoping that he could re-enter again. This one is shit, and she should watch for that. Its easy to find out as certain types of events in her life affect him in certain ways. Like, she has someone new....he is upset about it etc.

b) she is a valuable person for what ever reason, job, life, opinions, anything really, and this kind of people is good to keep in our lives. Lets say they broke up because it simply faded away... then they may respect each other and like each other as a person, but there is no attraction. This one should be understood.

I have been in both scenarios on both sides.
She should ask him about her, how is she and what they talked about.... etc. I believe that, if he is willing to talk about it without getting all weird and that, then its ok and its probably the b) reason. If the opposite, she should face the reality and give it a good thought.

My opinion anyways

I agree, this is what I wrote her back :

OK, I like this question because you are not really telling me why you want to know "I mean" is this your man, a friend, you give no clues? So with that said; I will go off of what is asked.

A man who is in constant contact with his ex-girlfriend is #1. still attached to her...#2. is still trying to hold on to her...and #3. there is more then a 50% chance they are still sleeping together.
Now please feel free to send me more information but I can guarantee that 2 out of the 3 listed is taking place...

almost exactly what you said.
