Texted ex following breakup rumor

I found out he contacted an ex who broke up with him 4 years ago, claiming he needed closure

What I wish I knew
"He has a pattern of reaching out to exes when our relationship is struggling"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be honest with your partner about your feelings and boundaries"
