Partner keeps searching my ex on Facebook

[Crowne]

Hi,

My partner of 4 years recently asked me to help out with her privacy settings on Facebook and I saw that on a daily basis she has been searching for my ex-partner.

I am talking 4-5 times a day every day for months.

I have a child with my ex so obviously have regular contact but only for pick ups etc

My partner can’t stand my ex because of how I have been treated by her but I just get on with it and try and keep the peace

Not sure how to approach it, if at all but it seems very unusual behaviour

Thanks

After 4 years it's a long time to still be bothered about your ex. Is she insecure?

How do you know the frequency?

Seems like she’s having a very very difficult time psychologically regarding her. Did you used to have lots of pictures together and love messages to each other all over FB previously?

It is really unhealthy and damaging for her to be this deep in this rabbit hole. She needs to find a way to stop obsessing and make peace with it.

coming off Facebook helps.

She might be just searching out of interest to see what she's up to just innocently/habit or boredom. I have done this sometimes with some people, even some exes, ex gf but maybe once a year.. 4/5 times a day is a bit excessive though, there could be a bit of insecurity there, is your ex attractive? Or maybe looking for clues that it is indeed just drop of and pick ups that there is nothing more ever going on between you and her? I wouldn't let on you noticed she'd searched your ex, that might be embarrassing for her. Maybe a gentle conversation to make sure she's not feeling insecure about anything?
