My husband was drunk and messaged his ex - what does this mean?

Anonymous

My husband and I got married last year and we have been together for 6 years.

He left his hometown and family to move closer to me 5 years ago from the UK to US.

We were long distance in the beginning when we weren’t official - he was still seeing his ex and lied to both of us.

However I gave him a chance as he committed to me and moved to be with me. He moved in with me and I asked him to block her on everything and he did.

About a year or 2 later he had reached out to her and was talking to her on Snapchat. But he said they were just ‘friendly’.

I didn’t think much of it because we were in the middle of buying a house together and had just gotten a dog together so things were good.

Another year goes by and I saw messages he’d sent her telling her he missed her but she didn’t reply. He told me he was just drunk and was texting his old friends.

A few months later he proposed to me on my 30th birthday.

We got married a year later and things have been going great.

But we haven’t visited his home in the UK in a few years due to covid so we decided to spend Christmas there with his family for the fist time since he left.

He sent her a Facebook message again on Christmas Eve! Saying hey how’s things. He told me about it and I got mad so he blocked her again.

He hasn’t been home since 2018 and so I know he hasn’t seen her, so I know he hasn’t cheated on me and she knows that he is with me.

She didn’t reply as he has blocked her now. I’m pretty sure she is still single.

He told me he will keep her blocked and he was just feeling weird being home again. Her parents live close to his so I’m worried he was hoping to see her over Christmas if she was visiting her family…
