He made a mistake and sent it to me and was telling me that he was texting his nephews son who by the way only in the 4th grade that has his own cell phone, and it was about 8 a.m. in the morning when we we're on the phone. He told me that his nephew's son had got all A's and he was going to visit him so he was texting him to let him know that he was going to come and see him. The text says that " Great. Enjoy your day at school. See you soon" . When I brought the subject up again about the timing he texted his great nephew because it was so early in the morning, then he tells me that his school doesn't start until 8:30 a.m. He got an attitude at me and now trying to say I'm acting silly about this and that he doesn't have time for this nonsense and told me If I want to talk, I know his number. He doesn't have any kids and he's not the kind of person that is really close to his relatives like that.

I recommend talking to him about it. This doesn't sound like anything earth-shattering, or any sort of "deal breaker" situation. Just a subject for a healthy chat. You might need to swallow your pride and apologize (and he should apologize too since it's rude to text while talking to someone). And, you'll probably both feel better after talking it out.

Although I feel it's rude to be texting and talking at the same time, I don't see how it's suspicious to be texting a young relative early in the morning. Maybe he's gone to a before school program and had time to text.
I am naturally trusting person, so I take word for word when people tell me what they are doing. When an ex boyfriend questioned me and timed everything I did, I got really irritated. And then I got more irritated that he used my reaction as proof that I had something to hide.
