I am being unreasonable, I don't know why, insecure maybe?
Dh (together 11 years married 5) has been doing the school run the last few weeks while on annual leave and I've been staying home with the baby. He's struck up a friendship with dd's friends mum. Texting (I have no clue what about) talks about her A LOT, today he wore jeans instead of his usual joggers, I can't remember the last time he wore jeans and he's just generally been taking more care in his appearance. I also fee like he's been being a bit mean to me.
I don't know why I'm so paranoid, he's never give me reason to be paranoid, he speaks about women he's friends with at work, doesn't bother me. I don't know what's wrong with me! Tell me I'm being stupid.

Did he accompany your DD to their house for the play date?

I would ask him fairly directly if anything is going on, if he says no, ask what you text about and ask to see them. If he isn't comfortable showing you then that's red flags all over from my perspective. If they're innocent messages then why would he not show them if they know they will immediately dispel your concerns?

Before you jump to conclusions, please don't assume that she's avoiding you because she's having an affair with your husband. It could be equally likely that she's avoiding you because your husband is hounding her and she's uncomfortable. You see him texting away but you have no idea if she's responding with endless jokes and comments or whether she's trying to maintain distance.

I think your spidey senses are going off for a reason.

Sorry it’s more the texting that makes me think that.

My DH made a school mum friend, she made a bee line to talk to me and I’ve never questioned it or had that feeling with her.

Hope you’re ok op. Doesn’t sound great I’m afraid? His heads been turned, I’d confront him.
