| #TalkingAboutYourEx When is it okay to talk about your ex? When is it not? Part of #ConsciousCoupling is to know when to say certain things, and when to not. Let's set a scene - you're in a bar and a man approaches you and offers to buy you a drink. You just respond with "thank you", you don't need to tell him about how the jerk who broke your heart and led you to be sitting in a bar alone. Fast forward a few months and you've been dating the same guy and he begins to invite his friends to the plans you had for just the two of you. This is similar to the reason you and your ex broke up - this is the time you can bring up your ex, because you are trying to save your relationship from ending the same way your last one did. Openness, honesty, trust, and freedom to reveal things about yourself is what keeps a relationship strong. If a situation like the example occurs and your partner still doesn't want to hear about your ex/past then you should wonder why it makes them so uncomfortable because it could be an indication that they don't want the relationship to progress into something more serious. So to sum it up, #ConsciousCoupling reminds you that you should feel free to talk about your ex/past when it is for the benefit of your relationship. When you're using your past as backup for an argument with your partner it makes it seem like your mind is still consumed with your past relationship, not your current one. You should feel comfortable talking about the bad parts of your past with your partner and if you don't then maybe they aren't "the one" for you. But if you're lucky enough to find someone who can sit there and listen to all the struggles you went through before you met them, hold on to them.
