Long secret

By Cam - 14/01/2020 05:00 - Sri Lanka - Colombo

Today, I realized that my boyfriend is still scared of his ex. It's been 8 months and our relationship is still "secret." Why? Because he's scared that she will find out and tell his family about us. FML

I think there's a few issues here that need to be addressed asap. You should probably sit down and talk everything over with him, as none of that seems like it would be healthy at all

It sounds like it's his family he's scared of. Hiding you from his family is a huge red flag. Smarten up.

Considering this was posted from Sri-Lanka I can kind of understand your boyfriend back when I was in the Middle East relationships and family ties felt lowkey like politics

Different country, different culture. We would need to know why he’s hiding the relationship. If it’s some old outdated bs custom, then fyl for the both of them.

hes scared shell find out because your the side piece

Aw, sweetie, he's just ashamed to be dating you.

So, ultimately, he's afraid of his family finding out. That's promising. Truth? He's with her and hiding his affair with you.

That’s a huge red flag. You’re probably the side chick.

leave him. if she's an ex it doesn't matter what she thinks, if he's with you then it doesn't matter what his family thinks. he owns his reality or he doesn't. if he doesn't, leave. how long will this go on for otherwise? I'm sure you can do better than this.
