    Not speaking respectfully of their children and ex-partners. I can only expect to be treated similarly or worse than the people closest to them.

        Yes.I would rather someone have a respectful, appropriate relationship with an ex versus restraining orders and drama and “she was craaaaazy” type crap.

        If every one of a guy’s exes are “crazy bitches”, it’s saying something about him, not the women he dated.

        Close doesn’t always mean romantic or sexual.

          If you have one crazy ex, you have one crazy ex. If you have all crazy exes, you ARE the crazy ex. But if you have no crazy exes but a bunch of relationships that didn’t work out I’d want to make sure you aren’t their crazy ex.

        It’s a much bigger red flag if they hate everyone they’ve ever broken up with. That’s just childish. So your shit didn’t work out? Shake hands and walk along. They still have the good traits that made you consider them in the first place.

          “And what’s the common thread here?”

          I find it very promising when someone I date, when they reflect on a past relationship, are willing to admit the mistakes they made which led to the breakup and highlight the positive steps they’ve taken to rectify those shortcomings to become a better person and not cause future partners the same hurt. Very sexy, that.

          Yea sure, but you don’t have to be close to them and still be friends. Just move on
