Last night my ex texted me about some daft problems she has. I mean seriously, it got way out of hand. It spanned from 7 o'clock when I thought I can deal with this in a few minutes. No, it went on till midnight. I found myself at 8 in the morning with my phone on my face, mid text. My girlfriend found out after the dumb shit of an ex decided to go on MSN and go, "Me and Limey were texting till one in the morning!" AS IF IT WERE NORMAL!  My girlfriend is now in a major pissed off mood, after being in a rather happy mood before hand.  
 
So tell me Giant Bomb's Off Topic forum dwellers. How do I apologise?

My ex, being the dipshit she is, told my current girlfriend that I was texting her till Midnight. But, the ex doesn't realise, that can piss off my girlfriend because it looks like "cheating on her." How do I apologise for such actions?

Tell her the truth: she was having issues and she came to you, you where being the nice guy trying to help her out. Sadly this ended up proving that she is a bitch by getting the drama train rolling by telling your current girl. If you have a good girl, she'll understand and calm right down. If you don't have a good girl she'll get pissed that you where simply trying to help someone.

Slap that bitch of an ex of yours around the face and tell her to buck up her ideas.

Fake sincerity?  Be contrite, ask her what she wants you to do.  Remind her of why your ex is your ex and why you are with your current girlfriend.  If your ex isn't 'value adding" your life, stop talking to her - it can never help.  Good luck man.

You aren't at all upset by the fact that your girlfriend doesn't seem to trust you and in turn jumped to conclusions before actually asking you what you were talking to your ex about?  I think you should be the one that's upset in this relationship right now.

You call our ex-girlfriend/ wife a dumb shit yet you are still willing to help her out once the two of you are no longer together? That doesn't seem to make sense... If you don't like her like you seem to indicate that you don't, why'd you feel  obligated to help her in the first place? It kind of seems like you were setting yourself up for this...  And you were planning to tell her that you visited your ex to help her out right? Because not doing so wouldn't be very cool...
 
Back to the real matter, just say you're sorry and explain the problem in full to her and hope that she is forgiving enough to realize that you were just being nice. You didn't do anything wrong, explain that to your girlfriend and hope that she is not the overly jealous type. Best of luck.

Dude no. If shes angry at you for talking to somebody, even if its your ex, then you need to draw a line. Don't let someone else control who you are allowed to talk to. As long as you were just talking that is =P. Also theres no way your ex did that out of anything but anger or envy, normal people wouldn't bother to tell anyone else who they were texting all night, because who the fuck cares? The fact she told your GF is really fucked up. So I'd be mad at her about that. And tell your girlfriend you are sorry, but your free to talk to whoever you want, and if its just text messaging then who the fuck cares.
 
Bottom line, don't be whipped, do you tell her she can't talk to any guy friends? Or is there a certain time limit on that? Can she not talk to boys after 8pm? Are you her dad? IS she your mom? No. So don't give her that power.

You have nothing to be sorry for. 
You were just texting with your ex, nothing else. 
To me it just looks like your current girlfriend doesn't trust you at all

If she can't trust you now she'll never will in the future. So;
@natetodamax said:
" Leave her. "
Alternatively;
@phlegms said:
" Write "Sorry" on the shaft of your penis. "

And proceed to dickslap her.

The ex clearly understand the power she's exerting and enjoyed texting with you for that length of time, otherwise she would never have bothered even mentioning it. She obviously still has feelings for you, and your girlfriend can see that. That's why she's mad. 
 
If you still wish to maintain the relationship, an explanation will help, but will not suffice. You need to show her that she truly comes before this ex. Don't just say it, show it.

This.  
 
It seems that some trust has been lost  over this incident.  You need to earn it back.  You need to show your girl that she is your everything so to speak.

Apologise? Purely based on what you said you havent done anything wrong, explain it to her and if she cant understand that you have the ability to be helpful without being in an intimate relationship (and im assuming you can) then the relationship will falter at some point, perhaps now.
