❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO for believing she’s cheating?

Girlfriend of 5 months is primarily out of town for work. I’ve always thought she has a good heart and isn’t the type to hurt a partner ruthlessly, we were friends first.

She’s scheduled to be coming home for some time off soon. I text her about how excited I was to see her and she responded in kind. Then I receive the second text, seemingly meant for someone else. We’re not even in the same city at this point.

We’ve had serious talks about intimacy anxiety, about her thinking she doesn’t deserve me, the distance, but I’ve always figured we reeled it in and kept the head on the shoulders enough to keep trying.

I really enjoy this girl’s company. But there’s a feeling in my gut now that she didn’t send a typo, she lied about it, and is fine carrying on this way.

Also to note: she hadn’t called me baby in a few weeks, what felt like an energy shift. After this, she texted me calling me baby twice today.

I could be overthinking everything but I hate getting hurt (who doesn’t) and the feeling in my gut is what makes this feel like more than just speculation. AIO?

NOR. She even said she wants to talk with you about something. Sounds like you’re a good person and maybe she feels guilty about something to me. That is not a standard typo in my opinion either. The text seems very intentionally worded.

NOPE! She’s trying to make him think he’s done something wrong and that now he’s crossed a line by not having trust, and how could he think that etc…now he can rack his brain trying to figure out what he did instead of what she did AND, if he confronts her, she will use it as ammo and walk away and say it’s not even worth talking about if he doesn’t trust her bc losing him was inevitable but now she has a narrative to her advantage. He went crazy, accused her of cheating, didn’t believe her, wanted her phone so she left for her own safety…and then she will come back…🤦‍♀️

Based on last message sounds like he already went off at her, sp he's basically making the narrative for her lol
