To keep it short, he found some messages that made him think that I was cheating on him in the early stages of our relationship, but then he realized that he was wrong and that I wasn't cheating. We talked about it and I guess we sorted it out, but now I'm not so sure about it.. should I be mad because he read my messages? I mean.. I might have done the same if I were him, I don't know. But still.. that wasn't a nice thing of him to do. Reply to this Question Share |

I sincerely hope he wasn't the guy next to me with his head looking at the cell phone and not the road. That really is dangerous.
I guess I would be a bit upset too, at the unwarranted invasion of privacy, but if there's nothing to hide, then no harm?
Did you have to 'prove' to him that you weren't cheating at the beginning, or did he figure that out by himself?
You're right, it wasn't very nice. But now you know where you stand as far as being trusted, and his phone is now yours to scroll through as well (not while driving, please). I guess I would try to forgive him and move on, see how things transpire. If he turns into a paranoid control freak, well, this was your first clue.
Good luck with him.
