My wonderful new boyfriend is a caring, sweet, a sensitive soul, because of his ability to love his maintains friendships with his ex's. Of all of his ex's only one bothers me, his long term girlfriend of 8 years. He has stated that they were friends for more of their relationship then lovers and he has no desire to re-kindle their romance. He is estactic about how wonderful our relationship is and wants to marry me and I want to marry him. I'm torn up about his continuing relationship with her. She lives in a different city and he and I will be visiting it shortly. He asked me if I would like to meet her. I haven't answered him, yet. His ex has already stated that she would like to get together but wasn't sure if I would be comfortable. He said that it was up to me and we would do what ever I feel comfortable with doing. It seems like a potential disaster to me...I have heard that she has a major chip on her shoulder and isn't a pleasant person. I feel that if I say no to meeting her, then she looks like the bigger person and I look insecure and jealous. If I do go through with it then I have to potential for being miserable for a couple of hours if not longer. I'm stuck!
