is being jealous of your bf/gf's ex(es) normal? why should you feel bad, if they dont care about them anymore? (its different if they do still care, i suppose) what can you do to prevent it?

i can understand why he feels bad when he thinks about me and my ex doing stuff together.. i mean, i was his first kiss but he wasn't mine.. but he gets jealous every time my ex(first boyfriend) is mentioned, even though we dont talk anymore. is there anything i can say to stop him from thinking about it / being jealous about it? i really dont want him to be hurt like this from something that doesnt even exist anymore.

Yeah, I'm in a similar situation but reversed. I hate it whenever my boyfriend brings up his ex's and whatever he did with them.
But I guess you just have to console him that that was the past and this is the present. You can't change the past. However, you're with him now aren't you? That means that there was something that attracted you to him in the first place, and something that's keeping you with him too. Just focus on that. The past is the past but the present is now, and that's what really matters.
