I've name changed as this could be outing.
Back in 2019, my dp was hospitalized in a mental health unit. He recovered very quickly once there but was required to stay for a certain amount of time.
I would visit him 3 times a week as I was working and he was over an hour away. He seemed very well and actually said he enjoyed being there.
Anyway, whilst there he befriended a woman I'll call her Zoe.
He didn't mention her much at the time. I maybe heard about her once or twice.
Recently he's been talking about her a lot. I think he misses her.
Apparently she would tell him he's the funniest person she's met, most intelligent and other positive things.
Turns out her boyfriend visited once and was jealous of the way her and my dp was getting along.
Up until now it didn't bother me. But more I think about things it does. One particular occasion he told me not to visit as he was feeling tired. I didn't visit but it now turns out he went to the cinema with Zoe instead.
I felt crushed when he told me. I don't think he realized I would remember that date but I did as it was the anniversary of my nans death.
He's often dropping into conversations how him and Zoe did this and that. None of which he mentioned at the time.
In all honesty I'm starting to feel jealous. Am I being silly to think this way?
