Am I overthinking about another woman going after partner

My DP is meeting friends this evening for a few drinks, however I saw a message ping on his phone a few days ago from a younger woman of along the lines “I’m out this Saturday so you’d better be too, it’s been way too long xx”, I don’t know if I’m now overthinking things of her trying to “tempt” him away, I’m sure it’s given his ego a boost if it’s not just a friendly text, I’ve never had a reason to doubt him before but having been left in the past by ex for OW i wonder if I’m just being overly sensitive? Would you be worried?

Things have been a bit up and down at home - just bickering recently, not much time just for us and very little sex (I’m 37 weeks pg, uncomfortable and with a clingy 17 month old and the heatwave it’s been a bit hard at times).

I do trust him, but I know he’s only human and having been stung horribly in the past I know it does happen.

He said the woman and her pals were 'too young and clingy'?

Why would young women be clingy towards him? That in itself as an off the cuff description of this woman would make me more suspicious, not less.

@DiscoBobyes, I think he meant they hung around at their table and asking where they were going to next etc. All his mates he was with are in relationships/married/have children so they were just wanting to have a few beers as they don’t get to all get together often.

I am also not convinced about her but I will ask how he has her number, @Missj25
