I want opinions on this. What I've discovered so far is most aren't okay with it. Please tell me why?
Here is how I see it. You do not want the significant other to hate the ex because that = ( unresolved feelings ) in my eyes.
Indifference is good.
Friendly I'm not sure that's entirely bad either. If you share children and what not.
Oddly enough, I do not find familiar what threatens a relationship as much as I've found uncharted terriroty one.
( Hot co-workers, "Friends" of the opposite sex )
Again, all relationships to me are chance and hope of respect but we can't control what one days at the end of the day.
Okay go!

I talk to my ex husband on a regular basis (once a week or so), because we share a son. My partner needs to understand this, because we have to co-parent.
I have maintained good relationships with all of my exes. However, that doesn't mean I talk to them everyday. I will text them happy holidays, but that is about it.
I personally, don't care if there is occasional correspondence. If it were a daily thing, and no children were involved, I would probably tell them that the frequency seems inappropriate to me.

Civil approach. Boundaries. No friendliness required

Depends on the people involved and how things ended TBH.

If its an ex whom you have kids with or an ex from 10+ years ago whom you are friends with I don't see an issue. Otherwise it seems shady that you have back up peen/vag in waiting in the wings that you have history with. Sketch.

I have never been in a relationship where the guys haven't been informed before the relationship started that I'm on friendly terms with all my exes and that I keep in touch with all but one who died. There have been some jealousy, but not a serious problem since they, at the end of the day, have trusted where my heart is at.
