You are better off without your boyfriend when there is so much drama with an ex, and you are distressed.

Ordinarily, when there is so much drama with an ex, there are issues that your boyfriend never got over.

In essence, that past relationship with his ex didn’t really end decisively.

In some ways, your boyfriend is still in it.

When there is this kind of drama, there is still a lot of passion where he and his ex are concerned.

Drama is borne out of passion.

Without passion, there is no drama.

Since there is passion between the two, you are in a situation where they still love each other or have a love-hate relationship.

It means that you are stuck in the middle of something that you have no control over.

Your boyfriend isn’t supposed to be having this kind of emotion towards his ex.

He should have moved on by now.

If he is persisting in having these emotions, you are not dealing with a boyfriend who is there for you emotionally one hundred percent.

This is a huge problem. It means that you are not really dating him.

You are indirectly dating both him and his ex.

There is so much emotional torment that can come out of this.

Some people make the mistake of lying to themselves.

They refuse to acknowledge the drama that is in front of them and choose to believe that all is well and that their boyfriend is bound to get over his ex.

They choose to believe that the ex is jealous and this is a phase.

Unfortunately, this is rarely the case.

When you are dealing with this kind of passion between two exes, they have not gotten over each other.

As I mentioned earlier, they continue to love each other or have a love-hate mentality.

You are constantly dealing with a boyfriend who is thinking about why his ex did him wrong or why he and his ex can’t seem to get along.

He worries about who his ex is currently dating and be comparing that person to himself.

Strictly speaking, his ex is constantly in his thoughts.

As a result, he isn’t a dedicated boyfriend that gives you the undivided attention that you deserve as his girlfriend.

Drama with an ex is almost always about unresolved emotions and issues.

Even if he has a love-hate relationship with his ex, the negative effect remains.

He is upset over something his ex said and did, and turns around to take his frustration out on you.

This isn’t beneficial to your relationship.

You become his scapegoat.

This is what we tend to do as human beings when we get overly frustrated by a particular situation.

We pawn off the blame on someone else.

This person is someone that we are close to.

It’s human nature.

We want to take it out on someone else so that we don’t feel so bad about ourselves and our situation. We don’t want to keep carrying that burden of responsibility.

Unfortunately, this is a situation that is sustained when you stay with a boyfriend who has so much drama with his ex.

You are better off without him.
