Okay hi so I'm 22 and have been dating my boyfriend now who's older than me 28 for about 4 months now. We have recently started opening up a lot more to each other and about our past relationships. 

We live in a small town and know basically everyone in it we also work together where we meet. 

He recently told me about someone he had slept with before we were dating that is from our town. He told me about this woman he slept with lets just call her Lucy who is 38 and married with 2 kids but apparently in an open marriage and I had no idea about this. I was shocked to say the least but I mean I can't really be upset since it was before me. Whenever I see Lucy or we run into her or her husband it just gives me a weird feeling in my stomach and I can't not picture them being intimate with each other. It also doesn't help that he brought up she said to please not stop talking to her no matter what happens.I dont believe he has been communicating with her or has been continuing anything.

I feel I am mature for my age and sometimes think to much into things I mean he chose me and he probably only told me that to be open and honest with me. I think I just need to trust him and not think into it. What do you think about this? Am I over thinking things? Am i in over my head for thinking about this? 

 

"Trust"  isn't even on the table in this equation.

 

You have zero reason to think your boyfriend is racing around this small town while trying to bang "Lucy" again.

 

This is just your present reality... and of course it is entirely up to you whether you want this to be your reality.

 

What if "Lucy's" husband weren't in the town, or the picture, and those two kids were your boyfriend's kids?

 

It would still be your reality and your choice to make.

 

Nobody is obviously wrong in this scenario.
