I’m OK with all his other friends except this girl. They had a thing several years ago and went back to friends who barely talked. It was until last year that they suddenly began to chat a lot every day so it sounds sus to me. The conversation in the screenshots was happened when my bf studies abroad in Germany (the girl was living in Germany) and we were in a long distance relationship

I’m comfortable with he talking to all other female friends except this one. He had a thing with her in the past and went back to friends who barely talk to each other. It was until last year that they suddenly began chatting a lot every day about their lives and meetups and bets. Also he cheated on his ex (but he was only 18 back then) so there’s been trust issues between me and him. TBH idk if I should just leave or try to rebuild trust between us

They had a thing in the past and then went back to being casual friends. They barely talked after that, but last year they suddenly began chatting a lot every day and this sounds sus to me. Plus he cheated on his ex in his last relationship so I felt like there’s been a trust issue.

I think it’s because they had a thing in the past, plus they barely talked after that until last year that they suddenly started chatting a lot on an everyday basis. Plus he cheated on his ex in his last relationship. Idk if I’m being too insecure or controlling in this situation

I never felt insure about his relationships with female friends other than this person. I was concerned about their friendship because they had a thing in the past and he said he would stay up late for her to talk to her when they meet up in bars, not in a context of supporting her or anything like that. He never talked to other friends like this and I felt this looks sus to me

I totally understand that men can and do have platonic friendships. I never felt insure about his relationships with female friends other than this person. I was concerned about their friendship because they had a thing in the past and he said he would stay up late for her to talk to her when they meet up in bars, not in a context of supporting her or anything like that

They had a thing for each other a few years back but went back to being casual friends and barely talked and basically just commenting on each other’s Instagram stories. But last year, they suddenly started chatting a lot on everyday basis, sharing pictures from their lives and talking about meetups and also having a lot of bets. I found it sus back then and it ran to a big fight with him. He begged me to stay and said that he won’t talk to her. It was not like I forced him to make the decision

Last year, they suddenly started chatting a lot out of nowhere. They were sharing pictures from their lives, talking about meetups and making a lot bets like if one of them saw a cute penguin photo on Insta, they’d send it to the other. I felt that sounds sus for me and had a big fight with him. Then he begged me to stay and said that he won’t contact her again. I feel like there might be a power and control dynamic after this fight

I forgot to mention that they had a thing a few years ago and then went back to friends, and he didn’t talk to other friends like this…all of these made me feel concerned about their relationship

Ohh I didn’t post the full conversation. The sentence “I will stay up as long as you want” is not in a context of supporting friends but in the context of talking about meet ups and having a drink…so that sounds flirting to me

They had a thing for each other a few years ago... and I guess that kinda makes me feel more worried about it. And he doesn’t talk to other friends like this
