Sorry, I’m new to making threads so sorry if this is messy. I’m 28, work at a factory in Nakhon Ratchasima. I can’t keep this inside anymore so I gotta vent.

Short version first. Confused.

Two weeks ago my girlfriend said she was gonna help a friend at his motorbike repair shop near home. Said she was just going to help, might come back a bit late, like around 3 AM, and said she’d just stop by to finish some stuff. I didn’t think much at first, but lately her behavior’s been weird. She’s been missing calls more, replying on LINE really slow until my stomach drops. Sometimes I wait hours and get a short answer like “busy” or “talk later” — that’s been happening a lot. That 3 AM, I woke up and saw she was online but no reply to me. Hurts.

There’s this person I’ve never met who comments on her stories way too often — short messages but sound really close. Her stories have photos of just the two of them close together, no big captions, just smiling like… close. I’ve seen pictures of them eating together several times in the same week, even though before I hardly saw that. There’s a short clip that said “help me out” and that person smiled at the camera, the phone was a bit shaky like it wasn’t propped up. I remember there was a crumb stuck on the bike key in the photo — tiny but I remember it.

I asked her point-blank and she said it’s just someone she talks to about work, just a friend, just helping with work. But I saw the pictures with my own eyes, it didn’t look like normal group pics. I really don’t like it. Or maybe I’m just jealous too much, not sure if I should trust her words or my own eyes. My gut’s telling me something but I’m also scared I’m overthinking.

Some nights I think I don’t trust her enough, other nights I think it’s my intuition. I’m really upset though — can’t sleep, can’t smile much. Factory job’s stressful anyway. Only around lunch at 12:30 I can eat slowly, otherwise I don’t feel like laughing. She used to call me “love” but now her messages are so short, like way shorter. Really confusing.

So what do you guys think? Should I confront her seriously again or wait for her to open up? Try to hold on another two weeks? Or collect evidence to use when I talk to her? I don’t know what to do. Help me lol T_T
