Should I meet my ex?

I used to live abroad and had a relationship for couple of years with a totally unsuitable guy. We broke up and I moved on, moved back to UK and settled down, met Partner, have 2 kids etc

My ex has contacted me - very respectfully - he will be in my city for a week for work - he would like to meet up - partly to apologise for his behaviour during our relationship.

To be honest it's all water under the bridge and it's at least 10 years ago...! He actually did me a favour as we would never have been happy together long term. My dilemma is - is it ok to meet him and should I just explain all this to my Partner?

Why would you? What are you actually getting out of meeting him?! It’s disrespectful to your DH. If my DP went to meet an ex because she wanted to apologise for the way she acted 10 years ago (🙄)- I’d wonder why he cared enough to go. No good can come from this

No, don't bother.

No. Don't bother responding at all. How did he contact you? Block him and forget him.
