Ive been dating him for two years. im 26, hes 29 and still living at home because of, well you know how it is. Im there all the time and stay over a lot. his family has always been kind and welcoming. Ive had some beef with his sister a few times but we're civil and fine. Before me, he was dating a someone for a long time; from young teen years until about 4 years ago.

I understand fully how close people can become in that amount of time. Im trying not to be unfair about it. My emotional response is different though.

I was going to follow his sister on instagram but saw some photos of my boyfriends ex. I dug further and discovered that his sister and mother have carried on a close relationship to my boyfriends ex and her family. As recently as 4 days ago, they all went for dinner and drinks. Meanwhile, he and I, just last week, took his mom out for dinner.

My boyfriend has no dealings with his ex and loves me dearly.

I cant help but wonder if he has ever told them that this is not okay. I wonder what his thoughts even are about it.

We spoke a little about it but I didnt want to get too deep in the convo because its not about him. Its about his family. He told me he cant tell me how to feel about who his sister is friends with but he ignores it and I should also. I told him its his mother too. That I lost respect for them and we left the convo at that.

Background on him and his family: he loves his mother but does not enjoy the company of his father or sister.
Thanks for this!
