Reasons To Keep Ex Out Of Your Life

Is your past relationship affecting your present? Then it is better that you should get rid of your past emotional baggage once and for all. Many relationships are ruined because individuals keep bringing up their past into their present.

Women generally keep making this mistake. It is a common tendency to make mental comparisons of your ex with your present partner. But when you keep praising your ex-boyfriend again and again in front of your present boyfriend, then it can hurt his male ego. Talking too much about your ex is a sign of insecurity which your partner may not like.

Reasons To Keep Ex Out Of Your Life

Here are some reasons why you should keep your ex out of your life and present relationship.

Temptation to go back: Even after getting into a new relationship, you remain friends with your ex then there are chances that you may fall for him again. As long as you are still in touch with your ex, it is highly impossible for you to move on.

Insecurity: When you are still in touch with your ex, your present partner may feel insecure at some point. There always remains a doubt that you may again get intimate with your ex.

Difficulty moving on: When you still brood over your previous relationship, it becomes very difficult for you to move on with your life. Your new partner may not tolerate your ex and this may lead to a lot of issues between the two of you.

Comparisons: When you still have your ex in life, you tend to compare him with your present partner all the time. You may not be doing it consciously but at the end your new partner may feel insulted and this can ruin your relationship.

Undue advantage: When you remain friends with your ex, there are chances that your ex-boyfriend may take advantage of the closeness and try to create differences between you and your present partner.

So, let the bygones be bygones. If you want to move on with your life then it is better to put your past behind and look for a better future.
