Bit of background, been with dp 3yrs lived together 1 1/2, started off okay never felt like heady,high lovely honeymoon thing which usually occurs.
He had a women friend who he played sport with 3/4 times a week,which was no problem to me as I knew all this before getting together with him. She is married etc.
After 9months or so we had been on couple of holidays and I realised this women knew nothing about him being in a relationship with me, and I did voice a concern a few times just to ask why? I knew her to say hi to, so why would he not tell her.
After a while he did mention me to her and I saw her that week and she was very off with me, and was every time since.
I told him this, but he said she was going through a tough time at home !(funny that) and he didnt think he should say anything to uopset her.
Anyway to cut a long story and 2 years on arguing about it! She made it clear she didnt like him being with me, and I then made it clear she made me uncomfortable as to why she would react like this was obvious.
He stopped ( his decision) playing sport with her, but they kept texting and phoning each other whenever either I went out or wasnt around, and he told me he wasnt in touch with her.
This has in about the last 6 months stopped as far as know and I trust when he says they are not in touch now.
My concern is he wants to start going to the gym (where she is nearly every night) as he says he stopped because of all the trouble it caused, but now he feels trapped that he cant do what he wants to do.
I dont want him to feel trapped that is awful, but I feel so uncomfortable with that situation.
I'm worried I am some control freak, we have argued constantly about this situation but I just don't like it and I dont want the worry in my relationship again, as knowing when you go out the room he is checking his phone was a horrible feeling sitution.
There are other things that aren't great in the relationship we have either, he has problems in the bedroom department, which he says if I just settle down and stop arguing about things he wouldnt have that problem.It makes him unsettled that I seem to have one foot out of the door all the time.
The problem is I do have one foot in ,one out constantly, I just dont seem able to settle with him and move on.
Am I being ridiculous and childish here?
He says if I just drop everything we could be really happy
