    I am answering questions. lol We have been together 9 years. I know he has no physical attraction towards me, that is why it hurts when he says someone is attractive and then I find out he has seen her

    So it's not something you want then - a sexless marriage/no physical attraction? Does he know this? What has he done about it or what reason has he given? Do you actually talk about it?

    You're having sex with someone that doesn't fancy you, that chats up other women online?

    With the more info it would seem ominous to me ...... however, there are varying "dinners"??

    Was it a coffee and sandwich type meeting during day?

    A macdonalds or pizza type meeting?

    or

    a nice restaurant where making an effort is required?

    I would be less concerned if its either of the first two scenarios .... third one would raise red flag to me

    Sometimes you have to trust your instincts.

    Which is why I used the oblique to indicate my interpretation but included your words.

    So you have sex knowing if doesn't find you physically attractive? Does he tell you that? Could it be your own insecurities presuming that?

    In another post the OP trusts their partner and most people are saying the bloke probably did something with the other bloke as he give out his phone number.

    In this one the OP has doubts (as would I) for having dinner with a friend of a friend (not direct friend) and saying its probably nothing.

    Am I missing obvious? (Apart from the bluelass, yellow something).
