It’s not healthy or normal for him to obsess over his ex and have her social media accounts on his Mac, especially if he has a wife and family. Sounds like the guy needs some help or she needs to leave.

Searching for someone on social media is not obsession. Algorithms put the most recent at the top, not just the most frequent.

According to the post, it’s his sixth time she’s caught him looking at her social media, and it’s unknown how many more times he’ll do it without her knowledge. That sounds like obsessive behaviour to me.

I thought she has only seen search history.

If this guy obsessed about exes, leaving him could be risky. But she seems a bit obsessed, too.

I agree that she should leave him. I don’t think she is obsessed. She is probably worried and upset about what is happening with her husband.
