My boyfriend's ex girlfriend is calling him for emotional support

This is my first post -- hello to all that are reading!

 

I'm in a bit of a conundrum.

 

My boyfriend and I (both in our late 20's) have been dating for 5 months. We live about an hour away and spend 3 nights a week together. He calls me daily.

 

My boyfriend dated an (older) woman for 4 years. They broke up about 2 years ago and from his explanation, it was NOT amicable--she cheated.

 

Yesterday, my boyfriend was telling me that a "friend" of his called and reached out to him and was telling him about issues that she is currently going through. He told me all about it.

 

His "friend" was his ex-gf. He doesn't know that I know this.

 

Why would he tell me about his ex and cover it as a "friend?" How do I tell him that I am not okay with his ex using him as a support system?

 

As a note, I acknowledge that I am a little jealous. I trust him but I'm not comfortable with her reaching out to him for support after a bad breakup and so much history. I don't trust her.

I don't know why you don't trust her...he is the one that lied to your face.

 

So, the real question is why did he lie?

 

He doesn't want you to know that he is in contact with his ex.

 

Because he knows you wouldn't like it and he wants to do it anyway.
