Overeacting or justified??

Randi

Currently, I am 36 weeks pregnant and I don't always have rationale pants on.

My husband has this friend, who is a woman. They have been friends for more than a decade, but fooled around about 10 years ago. She doesn't live in the country so all communication is through Facebook or Whatsapp. I have never met her and have no desire to meet her.

He got super secretive and literally ripped his phone out of my hand the other day and that didn't sit well with especially since I seen that she was messaging him. So I snooped through his phone when he went downstairs to get our son ready for bed (Not proud of this).

He deleted the facebook messages that she sent, but I managed to see the others on Whatsapp. She always responds with Hey sweetheart and he replied with Hey my love, which really pisses me off because he calls me that and we got into an argument over her because I feel like a set of boundaries have been crossed. Am I wrong for feeling this way? Should I keep bringing it up or just let it go?

Background on my husband. He is the nicest pushover I have ever met and I say that in a nice way. He used to constantly let people walk all over him and take advantage of him. I know he never means to hurt me, but it's probably something he has been saying to her for 10 years and didn't even consider it to be anything other than normal and just caught on now with me bringing it to his attention.
