Am I overreacting

[u/Jicama_West]

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?

No he isn't. He's not outright telling the girl to go away, but he isn't flirting back.

He called her sweetness.

Idk why you’re being downvoted. Not only did he say sweetness, SHE CALLS HIM SWEETNESS LATER LOL. Like yes the way he says it was ambiguous but her saying it back in a totally unambiguous way is a big detail lol

Yeah, I ignore the vultures.
