Simple one maybe, but I noticed a facebook conversation, on a public post, between my partner and someone I don't know. Seemed they know each other fairly well, not flirty, but jokey.
I asked who it was and it turns out it's an ex lover from uni days, 20 years ago... They went out for a few months, then split and stayed friends for rest of uni.
I wasn't happy as I think when in a relationship having exes on social media is a possible temptation in times of strife. Didn't make too much of deal of it but did a little looking back at posts and noticed that they have been liking each others profile pictures (virtually every one) for some months, and the odd little comment here and there.
I asked about this and said I thought it inappropriate, and was challenged back saying it's all public, no private messages, not seen them for 20 yrs, no flirting etc.
It's escalated, I feel I am being dismissed, my partner feels I am blowing things out of proportion.
Can't think straight... Help?
