Why do some ex-girlfriends insist on sticking around?!

Ok, I got this major problem that I seem to be on my own with.. My husband's sister is friends w/2 of my husband's ex-girlfriends.. apparently, they've been friends for a while.. I tried to accept them when I first started dating my husband but one made a move on him and the other thinks it's perfectly appropriate to discuss her former sex life with my man! Therefore, that friendship thing didn't last long but now, my sis-in-law thinks I'm being unreasonable to not only refuse their friendship, but refuse to "let" my husband be their friend, too! I've talked and talked and talked my head off about how unreasonable she's being but she doesn't get it! Help!!!

I recently dated a guy like that... Anytime I would bring something up that was bothering me about him, it was never his fault, he always had a reason or an excuse... And then I'd feel like shit and start being negative about myself, and he didn't know why I would do that to myself... And I just believed that there must be something wrong with me, not him... He's the main reason I'm still as messed up as I am... And it's harder because he's your husband, and because you have the kids... But if he can't see that he's in the wrong, there needs to be something done... Make him go to a marriage counselor with you... I do know what that's like, but I got out in time... I do hope you two can find some common ground and come to an understanding...

yeah, i do think he has the control.. and he knows me too well and knows how to push my buttons.. i've tried talking to him but when i bring it up, he just says, "why do we have to keep talking about the past?" and.. "why do you always complain about me?" and.. "you think i'm such a loser".. then, i feel guilty that i'm bringing down his self-esteem and he wins again.. and i end up hating myself because i CAN'T win no matter what i do.. he's not even hanging out with them anymore, but his sis is pushing the issue and he has no problem whatsoever being friends with them but i do.. my best friend ain't coming back and he was all i had.. i moved over an hour away from home and from all my old friends.. now, i don't know anybody and having 3 kids makes it impossible for me to have any friends.. i'm still so bitter about what happened with my bff.. just cuz he was a guy i dated.. for a week!.. but i'm supposed to be ok with the girl who took his virginity and the girl who hit on him.. yeah right!

You shouldn't have had to give up your friend, that was completely wrong of him to make you do that... With that being the case, I would tell him how it's going to be... Let him know you've sacrificed for him, and it's time he sacrifices as well... I wouldn't tolerate in that case... But it sounds like this is a bigger problem then just his ex's... This is a control problem, he has all the control, and that's not fair to you... Just tell him how you feel about it, and start from there...

i can't.. i don't do it to my husband because it makes him uncomfortalbe.. so, it's not fair he do it to me.. OR his family.. what's good for the goose is good for the gander.. i already gave up my best friend from high school for my husband to have him die a year later and this is still being pushed on me.. i don't want this pushed on me no matter who i have to thank!

I can kind of see both sides of this... I understand your not wanting to hear about your husbands past, I can imagine how awkward that could be... But at the same time they are part of your husbands past, and you really have them to thank for being able to snag him... I'm friends with almost all of my ex's and I'm friends with a majority of their girlfriends... Now would I openly discuss my former sex-life with them, no... But I have when it was brought up... Just trust that you're the one with the ring on your finger, and that's because of them...
