I need some advice

So my boyfriend is travelling and spending 3 days a week at his ex girlfriend's house at the moment so that he can see his son. Whilst I have absolutely no issue with this at all, it bothers me greatly that he then spends time with his ex "catching up" and "hanging out". I can't see him at the moment because of the Coronavirus and I'm starting to get resentful that they have games that they play together and jokes which he then tells me about days later. Am I being a psycho or is my nerves/jealousy/anxiety justified in these circumstances?

Why is he travelling to hers? How does he normally see his kids?

It's hard for us to say as we don't know your boyfriend, or his ex.

With things like this it's better to trust your gut. As a side note, if the thought of him spending time with his ex bothers you a lot consider if you want a lifetime of feeling like you do now. He could be massively trustworthy but if you never trust him then it's not fair on him or yourself.

His little one usually spends the weekend and then he sees him during the week too. We're moving in together soon and then he will stay with us. Am I letting the situation get to me because I miss him as I cant see him or is this something that's unlikely to change?

The child will always come first.
You are not ready to move in together.
Either work out what will happen before you move in together or move on.

I'd move on.

I'd be rethinking moving in together if you're feeling like this.
