Husband on the loose

Please respond with any advice.

My husband has recently been trying to get out the house more so has taken up bingo as a hobby. It seems to be very good for him and his attitude has improved.

However, he will not stop going on about a new friend he had made who he seems to be VERY close with. Her name is Heather and although we have been married for 50 years I cannot help but be jealous.

Is this normal? Should I be worried? He goes on walks with her sometimes after bingo and I'm worried he likes her more than me.
confused

^You might be at that stage where you aren’t bothered about your other half^

Well if he hadn’t died three years ago I’d most certainly be bothered enough to deal with any circling Heathers.

Ahh sorry I apologise about your loss

No way would I be happy with my DH going on walks with another woman.

I wouldn’t be happy about it,personally. You know your husband,though and whether it is just friendship or something a bit stronger.

That doesn’t sound right to me and call me cynical if you want but affair or just friendship he is preferring her company to yours so no I wouldn’t be happy at all

I d start being interested in Bingo I think

As others have said you really do need to meet Heather, it may be entirely innocent but if Heather is single and 10 yrs younger she may not be, there are a lot of attractive women in their 60s looking for a man, and a lot of men in their 70s easily flattered.
