It’s playing on my mind.

I really don’t know where to start.....

But I’m going to try!

So this morning , DS (18) and I were in the car, on the way to do our weekly shop. He was sat beside me whilst he spoke to an “unknown person” on the phone, the conversation was friendly at first... the usual “How you doing?” etc

Then it escalated into...

“Yes I’m still single baby... I haven’t found anyone I’m really compatible with, on all levels”

Now beating in mind, he has been with his girlfriend for almost 8 months now. She is a lovely young lady, and I have a very good relationship with her, she texts me every day to see if I'm ok etc.

Me and his father broke up several years ago, due to him being unfaithful. I am very worried that my son is going to take after him, the conversation he had on the phone this morning has been playing on my mind all day, up to the point where I couldn't eat. It makes me think whether or not he is being unfaithful to his girlfriend, I really don't want her to go through what I went through with his dad.

AIBU to want to confront my son about this? or do I mind my own business?

If I am not being unreasonable how do I approach the situation?

Chia your son is lucky that he can confide in you.
I can assure you that 38 is not old!!!

he said he does want to leave but he can’t because he is scared that something might happen afterwards.

That's a bit worrying, but he can't stay with her when he doesn't want to because of what might happen. What she does or doesn't do is not his responsibility after he has broken up with her.

Glad you had the talk OP and hopefully he'll listen to you and end it with her asap.

Happygroundhogday. When you advised Chia to "ignore that poster" immediately after what I think is my helpful post I thought that you meant me and was worried but then realised from the context that it was not me. Sorry all I can't seem to make a previous poster's name to be in bold.
