Why do I feel jealous of husband's ex girlfriend's after all this time

I'm really not sure why I feel like this.
Been with DH for 15 years. Like all relationships we have had ups and downs but we have always been best friends as well as husband and wife and our relationship is truly the best it's ever been.

Why, therefore do I all of a sudden keep thinking of his ex girlfriend's and feeling jealous? He's never had a serious relationship before me but did sleep with quite a few girls- nothing to do with me as we weren't together! However, all of a sudden I keep thinking back and feeling jealous.

Iv not mentioned anything to DH about it as he er will likely think iv gone mad! Also, the only person I have ever slept with is DH- do you think that's why?! But why all of a sudden?

This is definitely a 'me' issue but I don't know why I'm feeling this way.

Which aspect of her you are jealous about? Sorry if that’s not worded well, but I didn’t get this from your post.

It's likely related to the fact that you didn't play the field before settling down with DH.

My DH had had a fair few lovers when I met and married him but I know my body count is ten to his one so I don't give it a second thought.

I know he hasn't done anything that I haven't done but with a goat watching so I never give it a second thought.

He wouldn't have married you if you weren't the best of them though OP.
