In your new relationship,

are you willing and/or find appropriate discussing your previous lover with your current SO?

Do you want to know if they were better lovers?

I'd imagine many in a new relationship ponder this question...

But would you ask?

And would you tell the truth if you are asked?

wave Hi Laura

I do not think i would wish to know....what is the past should remain there.
And i also feel that what someone shared with someone else should be private....i would hate to think of an ex discussing my love making with his new GF uh oh laugh

The past is the past and should remain there, if the "lady" in question gave me reason to belive this wasnt in the past then I would rapidly lose interest.

No I wouldn't ask, and if asked I would be reticent to comment on previous lovers. I think it shows a sign of insecurity to pry onto the subject. You either click together or you don't, previous history is not important.

No, it is the past.


By *not favorable truth* I meant -- if/when you ask her directly, you learnt that her ex was a better lover that you.

Your getting into the realms of fantasy now.....laugh

If and I say if, I would do whatever to improve the relationship in the bedroom.

but if she told me something like that tehn she clearly has serious mental issues and im the out the door.

I feel pretty much the same...

Don't think it's necessarily a sign of insecurity, but a *dangerous and complicated road to travel* for sure, IMO.

ballerina9: yep, i agree, over a real long term relationship, theres nothing that isnt or shudnt be talked about


applause I can't imagine wanting to be in one's closest relationship - the kind of relationship one ought to enjoy with a lover/spouse - where certain issues couldn't be discussed. That might be appropriate with one's mom or children or casual friends - but surely not with one's soul mate.
