Im getting back with an ex after a split up of a month and a half (she slept with bartender during that time, but I can forgive, we weren't together). Im in treatment right now and mainly focused on that. But ive been talking on the phone with her at night for like 8 hours at a time, and I always get paranoid theres another dude in the background eating her out or something. Not sure how to get rid of these thoughts, seems a little brazen she'd stay on the phone with me for 8 hours talking about kids and marriage and how she loves me if there was another dude there eating her out.

Idk how to purge these thoughts from my head

  • 8 hours sleep

  • 8 hours occupational activity

  • 8 hours on the phone with Favorite Person

 

(Seriously, even with some of my closest lifetime friends, when the phone call lasts 45 minutes, I start to get irritated)

Not taking a jab at OP but 8h at the phone sounds INTENSE. Like if I do a long phonecall with my bestie thats usually 30min maybe 1h if theres a lot to talk about
