My (M/30) partner (F/28) started hanging out with a friend solo (F/?30?), and something feels off. Or I'm crazy.
Post Body

Alright, so here's the deal:

I'm in an LDR with an amazing woman. We've been together for a few years and apart for 2. She is moving back soon and I am overjoyed.

She recently has been seeing a friend more often - this is great! They normally hang out one evening a week with a group of friends, but recently they had a movie night and a couple other excursions by themselves. They're going to hang out all day one day this week. Normally, this makes me really happy to see her having fun and being social, but a few things feel off.

She has said this other girl is really attractive (this isn't a big deal, we are very open about whom we find attractive), and has suggested that the other girl might have a crush on her. Originally we talked because she didn't want to lead this girl on or screw up their friendship. I figured that was it, I've been in situations where I thought someone I liked had serious feelings for me, it's never a fun thing to navigate and I'm happy to be able to talk with her about stuff like this.

The other day after their excursion she was telling me about a cut she accidentally got and that if the girl had kissed her it would really hurt. I asked why she would be worried about this girl kissing her, and she brushed off saying that yeah, that would be weird.

I'm hoping it is coming across why this bugs me? A couple important mitigating factors before the question:

- I've never met this girl so I have no idea how serious the original "I think she likes me" is, my partner has trouble gauging interest sometimes

**- When she is stressed she blurts.** She has blurted other things before, and it's usually like that split-second stupid thought you have that we normally don't vocalize. Example, the other day I was walking behind a couple and thought "what would happen if I went up and tried to join their conversation?" obviously I wouldn't, and that's a crazy thought, but my partner sometimes blurts those out.

- Partner was supremely stressed the day this happened due to a lot of very real, very serious things that had nothing to do with us.

- Since that conversation I haven't brought it up, but she has been perfectly normal.

So, reddit, how fucking crazy insecure am I? How worthwhile is it to bring this up when I know she'll be back in a month?

Tl:Dr - partner met a friend, might have feelings for said friend, but also I might just be crazy and miss my partner and am projecting it because they're moving back soon.
