Not much more than ausing at the moment but...

My partner is a Francophile. Always has been. I don't really understand it because it's just a country with people but I also understand lots of people feel like this about France as well as many other cultures/countries.

Over the last 12 months or so, I have become friends with a French woman. The fact she's French is irrelevant to me 🤷🏻‍♀️

She's been to the house a couple of times and we've been out for drinks together. Neither my partner nor I have met her husband because he's not as sociable as she is and doesn't go out much.

Anyway, my partner seems quite 'enamoured' with her. Talks about her and about her being French a fair bit. Not quite mentionitis but heading there, has started making the odd comment in French to me (he speaks French quite well and far better than me).

I don't know if he has a crush on her/is physically attracted to her but they are very similar personality wise. So I'm sure he finds her energy and confidence (and Frenchness!) attractive.

I'm just not sure if I should ignore it, say something to him, cool the friendship, whatever.

I'm not sure things are great between him and me at the moment. I'm not sure if that is making me feel a bit crap about it or whether it's actually a reason to question things.

Not much more than a musing the title should say. I didn't proof read 🙄
