My partner and I have been together for a couple of years . He has an ex with whom he has adult children with. He has made it clear before that they had a very off on relationship and it was a bit toxic . However they’ve stayed in touch and apparently she was a rock to him when his marriage broke down. I found a message on his phone telling her he was feeling nostalgic and he will always love her , and she has been amazing to him. ( I wasn’t snooping, he gave it to me to look for somthing) It felt like a gut punch . I don’t know if I’m being childish but it really hurts and I feel like he won’t ever feel. The same way about me. I wouldn’t text my ex anything like that. I’m considering telling him he should maybe be with her if that’s how he feels . They also talk regularly on the phone and occasionally meet up for a drink : I’m not comfortable with this but he makes me feel
like I’m the unreasonable one.

Yea, I'd leave him and her to it if I was you.
