Okay so, first of all, I just want to say a MASSIVE thank you to everyone on here, bc you've legit opened my eyes up to a LOT of BS and have allowed me to move on from my ex.
Onto my actual post...
I've been with my bf for about 5 months now and honestly, after a v toxic relationship, it's a huge breath of fresh air. This guy has never made me doubt anything until tonight and even then, Idk if I'm overreacting ? Hence my reason for posting.
My boyfriend is Turkish French and English is his 3rd language. He's been in England for just under two years now, however his English is v good and even though there have been some cultural/language barriers, I have no issue understanding him. We were texting tonight (he's currently in France taking care of his mum during this whole CV shite) and I'm trying to learn French atm - not for him, it's something I've been trying to do for years for job opportunities and just to learn a 3rd language and now I have more than enough time - and I jokingly made a comment about how, 'you guys rarely pronounce the last letter of a word, it's hard AF for me to master' and he told me not to worry about it, it's not his mother tongue and even he found it difficult growing up, and he mentioned how his ex helped him a lot, she called him out on all of his mistakes and it was v annoying but he can't fault her for it.
Bc of the nature of my previous relationship, I made sure this geezer was over his ex before meeting him (we met on Tinder... don't judge me plz) - he's never spoken poorly of her, which I like. If anything, I've been the dumbass who's mentioned my ex more than I should and he's been more than understanding.
Anyway, maybe I'm just feeling insecure AF tonight, but I guess going forward - how much is too much when it comes to mentioning past relationships? Like I said, I've mentioned my ex to him, not in depth but only when we had a brief conversation before meeting for the first time (we both discussed when our last relationship ended) and then when he popped back up one night and I was feeling off and wanted to explain why.
Thank you if you got this far. I'm totally rambling, but I have nobody else to turn to and you gurlz are wise AF. Forget my essay, but if you could answer the actual title of the post I'd v much appreciate it. <3
