His ex wife calls and the conversation goes something like this "my girlfriend is here, my girlfriend is here, my girlfriend (my name) is here". After the call I asked him why he told his ex that and he says that he wanted her to know in case she wanted to come up. Well I thought that was suspicious that she would even want to come up as she never really did before and their divorce though civil was less than amicable 13 years ago. I also questioned him why she would call his home phone when his daughter has a cell phone and did not feel that she would need to call him at all about picking up their 16 year old daughter. His response was "I guess she still likes me, what's not to like. I am the total package, but I love you babe?"So my question is Am I reading to much into this? Or does it sound fishy?

 The fishy thing is why she even needed to know you were there. Would she be angry if she got there and you and ya'lls child was also there? If so, thats totally ridiculous. He is your man, thats your relationship. She is the past you are the present. Bite your tongue for now but if anything else fishy arises, i suggest you have a serious heart to heart with your man.

 IF he was talking to his ex- (... as Athena points out... may NOT have been the case).... then you need to ask him what was behind this call....
HE may think that he is "the total package"... but that doesn't even remotely imply that YOU should share that package with someone else....
Good luck..... I suspect you're going to need it....

 Are you absolutely sure he was talking to the exwife?

Why should he have to keep telling her that you're there, why is that in any way relevant? And why would she want to come up? His response when you asked him, although probably said in a joking manner, was totally arrogant and condescending and I think he could have been a bit more sensitive, but that's not really the point. However, he could be completely innocent and I think that until you have hard evidence that he is trustworthy you should try to relax and get on with life, because you'll only make yourself miserable otherwise.
