[quote=Anonymous]My ex boyfriend (we broke up a few years ago due to sexual incompatibility- I’m low drive and wasn’t willing to do many of the standard techniques) and I have remained friends for several years. I don’t think I would be a good sexual partner; hence, we aren’t dating.

He recently got a new girlfriend who initially accused him of overlapping partners, but ultimately realized no physical affair was taking place, and is now accusing him of having an emotional affair with me. I really don’t think this is fair. Initially, he was required to block me on the phone, but after she realized I lived halfway across the country from him, is now allowing us to text and stay in touch again. During the period of blocking, he would reach out to me through Google voice and it seemed like he wanted us to stay in touch. She goes through his cell phone and computer, and checks all of his messages.

She recently called him and was asking him when the last time he talked to me was, and it seems like she’s not okay with us as friends at all. She keeps asking about me, and is accusing him of being a womanizer. I’ve blocked him for now because I didn’t enjoy going through their drama, and the experience honestly caused me to lose respect for him. They have been dating for 6 months, though their relationship is characterized by a lot of fighting. For reference, he and I dated for 2 years and didn’t fight the entire time.

While I disagree we are in an emotional affair, I’m not sure if that’s accurate given that I’m not interested in a sexual relationship with him. Thoughts? Further wondering if what I’m describing above is a threat to her relationship with him? I was pretty hurt by her allegations and I don’t know if I’m ready to be friends with her. [/quote]
