Today he mentioned that because he gave me access to his e-mail, he changed his Facebook settings so that I wouldn't know about anything going on on his Facebook. When I asked him why he'd do that because it sounded like he was hiding something, he made sarcastic comments like, "I guess you'll never know." and wouldn't tell me what was going on. After about five minutes of going back and forth, he finally told me that no one was messaging him or anything. We usually have such an open relationship, but now I feel like he's intentionally hiding things from me (it's true that sometimes old girlfriends message him to say hi and ask what he's up to, and I've been upset about that before). I told him I don't want to be in a relationship with him if he can't be open. What's going on?

Join Facebook and add him.... you have a right to know who he is talking to but you can't demand it, you have to be careful because this insecurity can be a turn off to your boyfriend. He IS with you isn't he?

I once had a girlfriend, who demanded me to play new messages on my own answering machine. I didn't do it, but the relationship was soon over. (never cheated on her)
