I talk about my ex's to my BF all the time and he doesn't mind it. He says it's because they're all negative. I also do jokes about my last BF too. When my parents were here visiting, I was checking my bank account online seeing how much money I have in my account and I said "I have more money than Gary, I wonder what he would think of this if he saw how much have? 'That's because you don't manage it.'"
To him if you don't ever spend your money on fun stuff, you're not managing your money. That's his definition of managing your money.
I didn't have a job so I had to save my money, what did he expect, me spend all my money on fun stuff and fore I know it I'm broke and have to borrow money from my parents.
My mother started laughing and said "I think I know why you like talking about him so much?' and I said "why?" and she said "because you want to show him how good you're doing and how wrong he was about you."
Then she started telling my BF how much he was holding me back telling me what I couldn't do like I can't ride the bus alone because it's unsafe for women, can't go downtown alone because of so much crime, etc. and he said he knows because I already told him.
