Can or should I ask my significant other to stop talking and to not associate with his ex? If so, how?

In every relationship there comes a time where the ex is involved. This provides a very great struggle in the relationship. You can calmly explain by giving and I feel message to your partner and letting them know that you do not appreciate that they are speaking with someone that they have been with in a love aspect

Healthy relationships are built on trust. Unless the relationship between your partner and the ex is an unhealthy one, banning are part of another's past is more of a sign of distrust and personal insecurity. Perhaps talking with someone about why this association with an ex is bothering you might be more beneficial.

You definitely can, because your significant other is now in a relationship with YOU and there must be something going on if he keeps mentioning his ex. He hasn't gotten over her/him, but it doesn't always have to be that. However, even if it wasn't serious, it is serious to you. He should give all attention to you. Tell him how you feel openly. Maybe pick up the courage to ask why he talks about his ex to you. If he's the real one and if he loves you unconditionally, he will listen to you without judgement and will try to solve the problem.

First, ask yourself what's making you feel uncomfortable with their friendship. Has there been an inappropriate gesture, or are you feeling that way plainly because she is his ex? Understand that even though their love relationship didn't work out, doesn't mean they aren't good friends - and yes, without malice. If you really want him to stop, calmly talk to him about what bothers you and why it bothers you.

If the situation makes you feel uncomfortable then yes you should. Do it in a respectful way, and don't try and bring them down.

Express that you really love your partner, and any mentioning of his or her ex, makes u uncomfortable, keep assuring your partner that you trust him or her, completely,.but it somehow hurts you when a person who was in his/her life contacts your partner, let your concerns reached to your partner in non accusing phrases, it will certainly work,

Unless you have a very good reason to ask them to not associate with their ex, it's best not to force them to do any such thing. It's quite possible that they have managed to stay friends and asking your partner to stop talking to his/her ex will only damage your relationship with them in the long run.

You need to talk to them. Communication is key. You need to be direct and tell them how you feel if they are talking to their Ex. You most certainly can say you don't want them talking to their ex. It's totally understandable to think that way as we all would share the same emotions towards the topic if you in deed love your significant. If your significant cares and takes regards your emotions then they surely should respect that and stop talking to their ex.

A relationship is built upon trust, if your significant other is still friends with his ex then you should trust him to make the right decisions. If it is affecting you then speak openly to him about it and come to an agreement.

I think if your significant other is talking with his ex and it is making you uncomfortable it's something you should talk about. We cannot control what others do, or who they talk to, but you can let it be known how you feel. It could very well be that they don't know or understand that you are upset that they are talking to an ex. Having this conversation can help both of you come to an agreement that will ease your mind. In my opinion, you should not tell people who they can and cannot talk to. But if it is a deep issue you are having, your partner should be caring enough to take your feelings into consideration, and take the appropriate measures to insure they are not causing you harm. If someone is causing you to feel badly even after you've talked to them, I feel like that's a different problem. No one that cares about you should be making you hurt on purpose for no reason.
