My husband still talks with his ex's daughter


Recommended Posts

I just found out my husband still communicates with his ex's daughter who he has apparently known since she was 9 (she is now 17).

I find that super weird because he doesn't maintain a relationship with his ex (she has moved on).

We have been together for 4 years and have a daughter. 

Is this inappropriate or am I just overreacting?

Well I sent him a recipe via WhatsApp and he said he didn't get it. He opened up the last link I sent and the link was his Instagram where it went to his last view....her page showed up so I asked him if they were still talking and he said occasionally.

I don't see anything wrong with that. 

Are you the jealous type? Maybe that's why he has not mentioned anything. 

My first question would be, does the mom know? I imagine she did not have an Instagram at 9 years old so when did he get back in touch with her? 

It's hard to let go of the kids we had in our lives. It has nothing to do with the mother/father we were in a relationship with. It pleases our heart to see them grown and doing well.

If he was an important figure in her life when she was a youngster, I think it would be weird if he did NOT maintain contact with her.   Just because the parents broke up doesn't mean that the kid has to be excommunicated from contact with a person who she may have considered a father figure.  Maybe he was literally her stepfather.

If she is his ex's daughter and he's known her since she was 9 he more than likely feels fatherly towards her and still wants to be there for her in some way.   She probably feels the same way about him.  I don't see a problem with it.  He's not talking to his ex.
