Partner saying another name in sleep

Not sure if a proper AIBU, but as good as…

Trying to sleep the other night and partner suddenly blurts out another woman’s name in his sleep.
Not previous name of previous partners. I was shocked as he is the solid, dependable type, hates cheaters, ex wife was awful (I’ve heard/seen proof, not just his word).
Could be nothing, but…

  • saw a VPN on his phone the other night
  • has been spending LOTS more time on phone in evenings
  • will often come to bed later than me (I do go up quite early, but not ridiculously so)
  • Will sometimes sleep in spare room ‘to let me sleep’
I am suffering from extreme night sweats and insomnia due to perimenopause. His absolute abhorrence of cheating makes me think nothing, but that niggle is there. We have been through a lot, I can’t think why he would want to rip our lives, and family, apart.

I had a dream I shagged Boris Johnson. I promise you, I’m not having an affair with him

How was it?
