This seems to be a repeat? I think we replied to this story before?

In any case he should either reply and block or else reply.

I do some ex's that remain on good terms.

How long ago were they together? How did she get his number?

Are you kidding?? I'm sorry, but that's very inappropriate. An ex should not go "fishing" by texting your husband. Is this for real? Do you think he still has feelings for her? Then something is very wrong with your relationship. I would be very upset.....to say the least.

Confused? Text back "We're good. Thanks." If he has residual feelings for her, nothing anyone can do about that. It's whether or not he acts upon those feelings.

She had no idea if this phone number is still assigned to him. She's testing, throwing out bait.

Ignore her.

Taking one step back, I'd wonder how or why she has his cell number. Regardless, my initial reaction is ignore the text but if he does have feelings for her that part can't be ignored and needs to be discussed as a married couple and resolved.

@dooBdoo , my first thought as well was why/how does she have his cell number to text him?

How long ago was she his ex?

Some of these responses seem very high school to me. The "witty" responses make you sound jealous and catty and almost as if you are trying way too hard to put this woman in her place and make known how great your marriage is. In reality, if things were that great, your head wouldn't immediately go to where it went and you wouldn't be jealous over what could be a simple text because we don't know anything else about what is going on here.

What was the text about?

How long were they in a relationship?

I am not married now but I got tired of hearing from my old relationships, them asking the same questions and I give them the same answers. I hear from at least one of them every couple of months.

I love texting. I can ignore. It's easy peasy.

When I was married, I knew the ex's. It's a small world, we travel in similar circles.

When you are awkwardly thrown together, best to be polite, keep the conversation open & short. Not sure I would have been so forgiving of a "private" text.

I would not worry about it. He told you and he can either respond or not.

I guess I have a totally different opinion but I never hated any of my exes. We went separate ways but I never stopped caring that they had good lives. I don't find the text shocking. A simple answer would be fine, in my opinion. She hasn't overstepped yet. If she follows up with invitations and such, that would be the time to delete and possibly block.
