Okay for context me (23) and my bf (27) have been in a relationship for 5 months now. We were work friends who were hanging out 24/7 and ending up starting to date. He used to talk to a lot of girls online until we got together and he stopped, but now he’s talking to a bunch of other women again. And for a little bit more context, I broke up with my most recent ex for cheating on me.

Now I’m not usually the type to get jealous over simple little conversations, but when I went through his phone (itah for that I know but we both have each others Face ID in our phones) I saw he’s calling other women momma and sexy and saying he can meet up with them if they drive to him (he doesn’t have his license for medical reasons). Granted he’s at least telling the other women he has a girlfriend, but still being semi flirty with them all.

I guess I just wanna know if im the asshole for being jealous over him not telling me about them on his own (which I told him I don’t mind him talking to other women as friends long as he’s not hiding it from me) before I confront him about it and possibly ruin the best relationship I’ve been in.
