Is it okay for your OH to text another woman saying I love you?

My OH has messaged his girl mate and said 'I love you lots' she is a really attractive successful business woman. I really don't think that this is okay. I've met her once. He is saying I'm being really unreasonable but how would he feel if I messaged an attractive male friend saying that I loved him?

Also @Hahaha88 the trains were down because of an accident so that's why I couldn't get home. I'm perfectly able to get my adult self home just to clear that up for you Smile

In sign off all my messages to my best friend with love you, and he does the same. We’re both married. No issues. But we’ve known each other since we were 4 years old and he’s like my brother. He was in my life before my husband.

I have a lot of really good male friends that I message all the time and would never sign off i love you. They wouldn’t either. I don’t do that with female friends either. Seems a bit odd to me.

It'd bother me and I wouldn't think it's okay so I don't think YABU, however on seeing the context it was in, as much as I don't think it's okay and it would upset me, I don't really think it's grounds for a break up or as far as cheating.
I'd just give yourself some time to be bothered about it and calmly explain why it bothered you without being all guns blazing or arguing and then move on.

Kick out the bastard. He's trying to get her knickers off.
