So we've been talking for a while...and never got personal...

What does it mean if in an random subject he brings up his ex-girlfriend.

It went like this...we were talking about an activity to which he didn't have to specify who he was doing it with but then he went and said..."yes I had done it with my girl...I mean my ex-girlfriend". He basically stuttered on the *girlfriend* before catching himself up and rephrasing to ex-girlfriend.

Please please be nice and insightful...remember that when you are the one living through a similar situation, you can't see clear.

I don't think it really means anything that he told you he did something with her. I talk about my exs. They were/are important parts of my life.

The stutter, however, suggests something else. Chances are he is still adjusting to being single or he is cheating.

If it makes you feel better, I remember when my ex-fiance and I were together. I was having a really terrible time with migraines after a medical mix-up so they were trying me on different migraine preventatives. We were together about 7 months at this point, and he took me to a concert for my birthday. The medication dropped my blood pressure too low and I started passing out repeatedly. While I was going in and out of consciousness I was TERRIFIED I would call him by my ex's name just out of habit. I was madly, madly in love with him. I was just worried the habit and not being fully conscious would make me say something stupid. I was more worried about that then the fact I was being carried out by bouncers who were insisting I had "taken" something. I hadn't even had a drink at this point. lol. We spent the rest of my birthday in the hospital and I was finally released around 5 a.m. Good times.

So it could be nothing. It could be habit. It could, however, be something.

So its basically means that he might not totally be over his ex...or hasn't got used to calling her his ex...which is fine by me. You see I had given up on this guy, but he keeps coming back to me...actually I never knew where he stood emotionnally as he was always very interested in me, my where abouts, my family...ect. For the first he actually mentioned something that would have to do with his status...which is for me a big deal...anyhow...Ill try my best to not make anything out of this...which is btw very hard...let's just see how it goes!!!

Mmmmm i played golf with my ex whilst i was at uni. However when i refer to my past leisure activities. I will say i played golf with "pisces". When asked who is the pisces that when i reveal that he was a ex boyfriend.
Bringing up ex's will never be cool but only you can judge from his body language,tone of voice etc,whether its just a slip of the tongue are he is still "crazy in love"

I think you are reading way, way too much into it. Libras, in general, are just interested in other people. We like to get to know the people in our lives. i am WAY more comfortable talking about other people than myself.

I disagree with FemmeScorp. Libras aren't weird about shit. Everyone has a past.

If he asks you out on a date, he likes you. If not, he just sees you as a friend. Life is much easier if you live by this rule.

I doubt that meant anything. He prob is just used to saying girl (depending on how long they've been broken up). Or he was just reliving the moment in his head. I mean she was his girl when they did it right? Not a big deal. I've done it plenty of times

libras don't like to play games. he was just talking. it doesn't mean anything.

at the very worst, you can take it as proof that most libras need to be part of a "we" to feel fulfilled. she was the former half of his last "we", and now he hasnt' found his new half. that's why he's trying to get to know you.

if you fulfill his "we" need, he'll get hooked on you.

on the occasions i've mentioned previous experiences to someone i was currently involved with, i've always subconsciously done it to get the other person to want to fill in that spot, to either one up a good ex or not hurt me the way another did. i try not to do it now, because apparently most guys are turned off by girls talking about their exes.
