My wife and I have a secret signal we give each other when either of us run into a former lover.  It happens.  We immediately hold hands and visit politely.

Don't be a bitch OP.  That is all.

I consider who a woman dated or seen before I met her, her business, not mine, unless she wants to disclose it. Would not like it if she made that comment  to me if situation we reversed. Like another posted replied, she might have been screwed and dumped.

Everything before that is insecure BS.

BFD she lied to you for five minutes and felt bad about it.

Seems like the lie was just a kneejerk response, and when asked a second time she came clean. That tells me she feels guilt if she is dishonest, and her true intention is to tell the truth. While honesty is always the right thing, it isn't always the easiest thing. I would do everything you can to create an environment where she feels safe to be honest. Maybe saying, "hey, sorry I got pissed off, but you did tell the truth afterwards and I really appreciate that. It probably wasn't easy to admit that". you don't want to create an environment where she doesn't feel safe to be honest.

So in public a guy is a shit head and puts her in a very uncomfortable spot.   She doesn't handle very smoothly.  Now you are mad.    Is that the TL;DR ?

I guarantee she has fucked him while seeing you, probably even recently...sorry dude.

^^This^^

While your delivery and approach lacked - asking who he was could have been handled better, I prefer a simple direct approach "Who was he" and see from there what your gut tells you based on her reaction

That being said - if your relationship involves a back and forth dialogue that includes a bit a shit giving back and forth with yoru GF - then maybe its not out of the norm to make a jest like asking is that a fuck buddy - you know your relationship better than anyone on GD - and we don't know even how long you have been with your GF - as that is to me a huge factor in whats really going on and her reaction - if you are very recently a couple - then even more so a greater chance one of the two scenarios or a combination of them are playing out.

Based on her reactions - off the cuff I will go with she is still seeing the guy - or was very much recently - even if you are a couple

Good luck

And to clarify my position, no I would be pissed at all about the lie.  I would sure as hell be having an adult conversation with her to find out WHY the lied.

Again, her reaction to the situation seems way disproportionate to the facts you have been given.  I don't know anyone who would cry all night about a fib that they came clean about almost immediately.

I think you reacted a little heavily. I've always made it a point not to ask about the previous sex lives of any girlfriend or wife. I honestly don't care if she was the town whore. And I most certainly don't want to know if she was but what she did and what I did before we were together is not any of each other's business so it's one of those subjects we don't get into.   Probably a good thing because my wife would be fucking shocked if she knew how nasty of a bastard I was :-)

Let me preface this by saying I know everyone has a past. That doesn’t bother me. So now the details

At dinner with the gf when a guy walks up and says “hey, how ya been? Haven’t seen you in a while.” She says she been doing good and introduces me.  Do the handshake hey bull shit and he says have a good one and goes sit down at his table. I jokingly ask “who was that, former fuckbuddy?” And laughed. She stutters and says “no just a friend of some mutual friends.” I instantly smell the bull shit but don’t say anything. Just keep eating. She hasn’t taken a bite in over a minute and I say, “something on your mind?” Knowing there is. She finally comes clean and said she lied about how she knows him and that they did hook up a few times the month before I met her. I don’t care that she hooked up with dudes. I was a whore before I met her. But anytime she has asked me anything I have always been honest. Even if she doesn’t want the answer. I am pisssed about the fact she lied to me. I can’t stand it. We get in he car and she starts apologizing and crying for lying etc. I tell her it’s a very stupid thing to lie about. I just stop talking about it because I am irritated she lied to me about something. She cries all  night. I shower and go to bed.

Am I dumb for being pissed she lied to me?

In b4 eject

You’re making way too much out of this.

You should be smart enough to realize you put her on the defensive by asking if he was her fuckbuddy.

Grow up and don’t make every discussion an argument.  Relationships last longer and are better.

In an ideal world, she would have said, "There is more to the story but I have to think about how to explain it. Give me some time on this." Then move on with the dinner.

But we don't live in an ideal world. She didn't have enough time to fully process the situation before communicating, so everything went sideways and fell into a world of chaos.  What she did isn't really lying, it just appears that way.  She panicked because she cares.

OP should be mending fences and she should probably eject.

It’s a natural thing to lie about and it sounds like she came clean on her own shortly after. You also phrased the question in a way that doesn’t invite an honest answer. I wouldn’t get too worked up over it.

You really want to mess with her? Act like it doesn't bother you one bit. The crazy female mind will wind that into you must not care because you are cheating on her with someone younger and hotter. Maybe say hi to a couple girls that are good friends of yours or ex's on FB. Then just sit back and enjoy the show.

So you're not engaged and she's not your wife.

I think she's well within reason to not indulge everything to you.

Now if you two get seriouser, you'd be well within reason to request all her secrets.

God damnit! Where are the pics!? I scrolled through all 4 pages and didn't see a single one!

You were mad, she apologized, now you're not mad. Problem solved. On the flip side the dude was being a monumental asshat for wandering up to a girl he used to fuck knowing she's sitting there with another guy on a date. He was hoping she'd tell you he was an old fuck buddy to piss you off. That was his goal. To be a fucking douche-canoe.

If only it were legal, you should have drug him outside by his ear and pistol whipped him like that Goodfellas gif earlier in this thread.

People have relationships. Most of them don't work out long term.

There are girls that I've hooked up with in the past that I still care about as friends, that I'll certainly say "hi" to if I run into them.

(Though, I generally try to read the room... I'd prefer not to cockblock, and wouldn't walk up on a date . Especially if it's a new relationship).

He was being obtuse. She was painted in a corner and tried to handle it best she could.

It is certainly natural for you to be irritated. But you'll get over it. Just let it go and all parties will be better off for it.
