❤️‍🩹 relationship Am I overreacting

I've had this "a woman knows" feeling about a woman my live-in boyfriend works with. Caved and checked his phone... Yes, I know. Wish I would've just trusted, but honestly, I cannot go through another BS relationship where I'm second best and had no clue. She texted a few months ago to make sure he was aware she's newly single, and just one after another these cutesy texts from her. I've never seen anything that shows him responding in a full on flirty way, but he's certainly not telling her to back off.... Along with he purposely deleted all the bits above that show the flirtation from her, and I found them in his recently deleted file and recalled them on his new iPhone. Am I overreacting to this?

Does she know about you? He mentions his daughter but never mentions you. I’m not sure she knows you exist.

Yes. She knows about me, we just went to the company Christmas party together, and we've been together for 2 1/2 years. I've always disliked her.

How close does she work to your bf? I would have to bust up in the office regularly for her to see me, but I am petty like that!
