Here's what you should never utter about that ex of yours to your partner if you want a smooth relationship.

Confessions are good, but not always. To stay in a happy relationship we suggest some things left untold to your present. Trust us, what they don't know, won't hurt them. At least you'll be spared of your current popping up those memories when you two have a fight.

OH! the sex was great
On the backseat of the car, in the elevator, on the balcony, on the bean bag, and wherever else you might have done it! Be you careful, lady, before spilling those beans to your man. Bragging about your past sex life is so not done because we're sure your guy would be scarred listening to your sexcapades. So keep those details at bay from your current flame lest you may get in trouble. Also, even if your partner is fine listening to those sex-tales but has never experienced even a wee of that, you'll surely be at the receiving end of a whole lot of cribbing.

He called, we talked, it was nice
Your ex is back in town, or is starting up a new project, or is kicked about his newly joined swimming classes. We know your partner surely has zilch interest in those details. Keep it for yourself, also, maybe for your gal-pals (they'll love listening that goss.)

Gosh, he once told me the same thing
In romance, it's mostly tried and tested, but nothing like making your partner believe 'wow! that's new'. So if you've heard the exact same thing from both your current and your ex, don't you jump up with glee saying, 'This must be true coz I've heard the exact same thing from my ex!'

I cheated when with him
Your ex was 'drab', true to every letter in the word 'drab'. And you cheated on him with his best friend or with any other man. We warn you, don't let out that detail to the current love of your life. Listening to your past cheating experience, he might just hire a spy on you, so he be cautious.

That was special
We know most romantic encounters are special. But it's okay if you conceal that bit from your current. Nothing will get him more jealous or upset than you telling him, "Well! That was special."

And we've won the best couple award
Everytime you got clicked with your ex beside, people would go 'Aww'. Cute, yes! We don't deny you might have been the best couple in town seeing whom other couples would turn green with envy. But maybe you'd want your partner to believe otherwise. Just so he has no complex and stays happy.
