Sorry, DW gets monogamy.  She's my partner.  Our relationship is based on trust.  But her failure of trust doesn't create an obligation on my part.  We're both adults and entitled to adult non-sexual relationships.  Would I care?  Sure.  Would I help her deal?  Yep.  Would I be irritated?  Yep.  But I'd still maintain friendships that are important to me.  You can't reward controlling behavior.[/quote]

NP here.  We aren't talking about maintaining a friendship here, but rekindling a relationship with an old flame.  If you can't see the difference, well...

It is still up the the OP to decide if her relationship with her spouse is more important to her than finding out if her ex is happy.  [/quote]

Problem is that this stuff doesn't end here.  It's a slippery slope down the path to some pretty ugly behavior.  And I'm not so sure the distinction between exes and friends is all that stark.  I'm friends with a lot of my exes, some of whom I haven't seen in years.  Your assumption seems to be that meeting her ex would entail sacrificing her relationship.  If it's any kind of healthy adult relationship, that shouldn't have to be the choice.[/quote]
