    It would be a deal breaker for me, definitely. Regardless of whether or not he meant what he said to her, I wouldn't want to be with someone who is still chatting regularly with their ex.

    Someone reading my emails would also be a deal breaker. I think it doesn't look hopeful for either of you in this relationship.

    It would be a deal breaker with me


    If he left her despite apparently will never have a deeper connection with anyone more than Ex
    Why do you think he wont ditch you?


    Why does he want her to know how special she is to him - STILL, why is he making it abundantly clear to her that despite him being in a relationship with you, he still had a deeper connection with her than you


    In other words, he has ditched someone who was more special to him, than you - and you are asking should you stay with him..


    If you stay with him, do you think you will have a loving and secure relationship knowing this information?


    Nothing good will come of this for you, as you are not where his loyalties lie. You should ditch him and find someone who feels about you - the way your current partner obviously feels about his ex - that is what you deserve


    I am sorry
    The opposite of what you know...is also true
