You're upset over a common nickname?
I have tons of people that call me Bubba, Bubby, Uncle Bubby, etc.

Unless there are other obvious signs going on that isn't this one. Because this is not a red flag.

It seems like insecurity, unfortunately. This one is on you.

I mean he will sit there and call her while at my house and shush me while they laugh and talk so something seems off and I don’t like it

Ah with that information. I can see the concern. Try not to make yourself worry too much over it. Because what will happen is going to happen anyways. You can't do much to change it. Just monitor it and see how it goes. If it becomes harder for you. You could calmly sit down with your boyfriend and ask him if it would be alright to go through his phone.

If he acts like he has to hide something then I would absolutely be suspicious. If you're in a relationship. He should have nothing to hide from you. But approach it calmly.

Do they only call each other? Or do they also text?

Well the big thing to take from it if it doesn't work out. It's better to have only wasted a little bit of time with them trying to figure out if it would work or not. Then finding out early it's not going to work out. Just try to keep a level head and be calm when you try to come up with logical reasons as to why he is doing what he is.
I would definitely ask to look at his phone calmly. Once you have the opportunity to do so. He should have no problems showing you at all if he has nothing to hide. But it also is dependent on how you approach him about it. You have to be calm when you do it.
Otherwise he is most likely not going to allow it, regardless. (May just think you're looking for a fight)

In regards to relationships, the most dangerous people in the World are Exes and best friends.

Have a chat with him and let him know how you feel.

It’s not a big deal I have read the comments and understand your concern, however she is just his best friend that’s it nothing to get upset about.

How long have they been friends? Was it before or after you two started dating? Also no matter what just talk to him about it! Communication is key lol, and if he ends up getting super nasty and defensive, dump his ass

They have been friends as long as me and him have been friends so about 2 to 3 years it was before we started to date me and him honestly have amazing communication skills if he does get defensive imma really need to think about what I do considering I’m honestly feeling like I’m all he’s got and I feel like the pain that will hurt him will be bad because literally he has no support at home and he claims he has no friends that really I’m all he’s got and he has this girl I’m talking about only rarely is there for him

You suck it up. One of the fastest ways to kill the relationship is to alienate the friends.

She was his friend before you and therefore you have no right to expect that to change just because of you.
