A regular lurker, but hardly ever post.
In a fairly new relationship, 6 months together, after my marriage went wrong a few years ago. Have been together 6 months and all good so far. Don't live together and both have kids. Live about 40 miles apart.
I knew my boyfriend was on good terms with his ex ( not his kids mother) and she is coincidentally someone I used to work with 20 years ago.
But now I'm a bit concerned about their friendship and I hate that I'm feeling weird about it.
These are my worrying niggles:
- They text each other a lot.
- They live geographically close to each other and their kids are all friends so they meet up for birthdays and outings.
- He never tells me when he's seeing her until after they've met up.
- When he told her we were together she went silent and changed the subject.
- I suspect he sees her more often than this but have no proof.
- He's not suggested I meet her, although we already know each other slightly.
I have a sixth sense that there's more to this friendship, but no proof and he told me he ended the relationship about 6 months before we met.
So should I just relax about it and accept they are just friends or be concerned.
Any ideas or opinions are welcome!
