"Before I start, I know what this site can get like, so please no hate and no this is not for a "friend" it is a genuine conversation I had with a friend ![]() ![]() ![]() as you say it was before they were together so is nothing to do with him and his relationship with her....these things happen, its all about finding out who is or isn't right for you and obviously this man wasn't right for her... that should be the end of the discussion and your friend should accept what she says and let it go | |||

"Before I start, I know what this site can get like, so please no hate and no this is not for a "friend" it is a genuine conversation I had with a friend ![]() ![]() ![]() That may be a bit harsh, but yeah, the crooks of it is there and that's pretty much what I said to him! Thanks | |||
"I understand that he obviously had strong feelings for her, but whatever she did before they got together is surely none of his business." This! They weren't together, him having it `eat him up` that something more happened, before he was her partner, strikes me as a tad obsessive at best, and controlling at worse She did right not answering in my opinion, because it sounds like with his attitude, she's dammed if she did, and dammed if she didn't. He's already basically said he doesn't believe what she's told him? | |||
"I understand that he obviously had strong feelings for her, but whatever she did before they got together is surely none of his business." True, and this is in the original post and he did say that himself | |||
"Before I start, I know what this site can get like, so please no hate and no this is not for a "friend" it is a genuine conversation I had with a friend ![]() ![]() ![]() Yep, again, pretty much what I said to him! I think he shouldn't push the issue, it will only end up in a row. I just wanted to know that I had said the right thing. Thank you | |||
"Before I start, I know what this site can get like, so please no hate and no this is not for a "friend" it is a genuine conversation I had with a friend ![]() ![]() ![]() im not known for placating people x you are welcome. my other piece of advice is tell him hes a dick and then back off, from the situation.if he talks to you about it, dont go over old ground.just say its not up for discussion any longer..dont enable..xx | |||

" Yeah, I guess it does come across like that, but I think it was less "I don't believe you" and more "sooo many people had said the same thing" Of course, I told him to ignore the rumour mill, and he said he would have if everyone had a different story but they hadn't lol Meh, men!!! ![]() | |||

"Before I start, I know what this site can get like, so please no hate and no this is not for a "friend" it is a genuine conversation I had with a friend ![]() ![]() ![]() Yeah, I don't think he will bring it up again! I told him what I thought, he took it in and I'm convinced he will leave it now! Just wasn't sure if I was right, but general consensus would say I am ![]() | |||

"Tell him to move on which he should have done yonks ago.That was then and this is now she chose him even though he seems to need a good kick up the arse. ![]() Yes, quite! I also used that very "she chose you dick head" ![]() ![]() | |||

He doesn't believe her plain and simple and he's going to keep on until she either get sick of it and walks away or tells him what he wants to hear (because he does want to hear that more went on). he needs to get a grip either by himself or with the help of relationship counselling. | |||

"He sounds insecure and, out of that, controlling. I'm not surprised she didn't respond because anything she says will just fuel him to keep on raising it. Thirteen years of reassuring him is more than enough. I'd suggest you back out of giving him any more advice around this because if you've ever been even mildly flirty with the wife then he's likely to grow that into something in his head. Keep an eye out for put downs and coercive behaviour towards her. " Ok, just to clarify, this hasn't been a constant thing, it's come up literally just now, I'm not fully sure how, but I asked him this and he said it's the first time they have discussed it! Secondly, no, I'm not going to be keeping my eye out for "coercive behaviour" I know what you are getting at, but I know them both well enough | |||

She's the one I'd be worried about. | |||

If you trust that this is, as he says, a one off then you needn't have raised this on here at all. You would have put it out of your mind. Something about this is troubling you and that is why you are questioning whether you said the right thing. Either that or you were looking for a little drama to keep you entertained reading responses to your 'friend' question. | |||

If you care to have a read, I just wanted people's opinion on whether I had said the thing to him to just fucking leave it well along and crack on with life!! So no, nothing is "troubling" me at all!

" I was in a relationship where no matter what I said there was no reassuring my partner about things he had imagined and grown in his head based on nothing more than passing comments. Abuse doesn't have to mean beating but emotional abuse and coercion can so often look like caring and concern to those on the outside of the relationship. | |||

"Once that jealousy seed is planted it's never going to go away if he is so insecure. It's part of his personality and you can't change that" This is very true! I think he needs to learn to leave pointless stuff alone tho | |||
