Wives Jealous of Husband's Ex

Green With Envy Over Spouse's Exes?

by 2

You've got the marriage and the carriage, but are you still insecure? Last night on Parenthood, Joel got a bit anxious when he found out that Julia had contacted her ex-boyfriend Timm to solve a family problem. Julia could relate since she's had her own emotions about a mom in playgroup being attracted to Joel. Though a woman is in a committed relationship and has children, she may still feel a tug of jealousy when her partner's ex comes back into the picture. Do you? Why?

Yep, no jealousy here but we also don't have any exes in our lives. Really though, unless they were hanging around all the time and clearly making themselves "available" I don't think either of us would appreciate or approve and would be severing those ties anyways.

Nope, not jealous. But neither my husband nor I see the need to keep exes in our lives, so I guess that settles it.
