Would You Say Something About This Behavior (and If So, What?)

[LuvCuteBoys]

Just to be clear, if a man picks you up at your place, takes you to his place and cooks you dinner, he wants more than an opportunity to drive you home - even if he is now just your ex-boy friend. Men don't make good friends once sex is introduced into the relationship...

That's not always true.

What would you do if this friend were female and behaved the same way?

I would tell her I didn't appreciate being treated that way (I think - sometimes I have a hard time standing up for myself.)

He's a friend. Doesn't matter the gender. Treat him the same way you would treat your female friends and do exactly what you just said. Tell him you don't like being treated like that.

Seems like a bizarre situation to me, why would you have dinner alone with your X who was a jerk to you when you were dating? You have a different boyfriend now who doesn't mind you having a date with your X? MOVE ON!!!

Having dinner with someone of the opposite sex does not automatically equal a date. They're friends... nothing wrong with that. Just make sure he's treating you the way you would expect any friend to treat you.
