to worry about cheating?

Does anyone else trust their partner, but have a nagging feeling that they COULD cheat?

I have a young baby and haven't had sex with DP in months. He's out tomorrow night with his work mates. For the first time since I've known him I'm slightly worried he will cheat. Things aren't great between us at the moment. Lots of bickering and whilst I don't worry about this as I'm sure it's a phase (sleep deprivation and new baby), I do worry that he will cheat.

He's never given me reason to think he would. I do know what his work mates are like however.

I think I worry less about him cheating, and more about him cheating and me never finding out (aka looking like a fool).

How do I overcome this awful insecurity so I can actually enjoy my evening tomorrow?

I think it's totally normal to feel a bit like this when you've got a new baby and time for just being a couple has to take a back seat. You say he's not given you any reason to worry, and he'd have to be a real shit to cheat on you when you're at home with his new baby. It doesn't sound like you think he's that kind of guy. Trust him like you always have and enjoy your evening, have a bath, watch a movie, relax.
