There was this one girl who i started to chat to and we got a good conversation going. The conversation eventually led to mobile phones and facebook and all that and we were comparing phones so she was looking at mine. Then i said "dont look through my personal stuff". . . before i knew it she said "I wouldnt dream of it" in a really surprised and firm tone like she was angry that i said that. For the remainder of the evening, i didnt talk to her and she didnt talk to me.there was one case where she was sitting on the floor next to a couch and I went to sit down on the couch and she moved away to sit at the other end of the room. The thing is though she needed to ask for a lift from me to go back home so she still did ask me very politely if I could give her (and some other friends) a lift home. I jokingly said back yeah there should be some space in the boot to which she laughed (couldnt tell if it was fake or real)So my question is. . .did I do something wrong to offend her? and should I apologise when I see her next, coss i wasnt sure on that day.

 Don't sweat it. Treat it as a complete non-issue. That means no apologies, and don't act awkward about it, don't even think about it. If she wants to act awkward, that's her prerogative. Besides, you gave her a ride home, so it sounds like nothing's wrong.

There are a lot of people who, for some reason, think it is ok to read your messages when you show them your phone, and I absolutely hate that. How could you have known she was not one of those people? By the way, I've just discovered the solution to this issue: if you have an android phone, you can download an app that locks your messages and nobody can read them if they don't know the key. Now I don't have to worry about my nosy friends reading my messages any more.

 One can only offend those that need to be offended. Looks like you might be OK

 I don't think you did anything offensive but it's rather surprising... I mean it sounds like you have something to hide...
If when you see her it seems appropriate you may want to ask her if you offended her and take it from there based on what she says.
