We both still live with our parents and while she went downstairs I checked her phone. I'm not proud of it but I felt the need to as she is so secretive with it.Tonight we went to the cinema, and she was texting the whole time, I asked who it was and she replied emily her friend, when I checked her phone it was from the ex and some of the texts were quite suggestive, if I confront her she will go barmy and went behind her back, yet I feel the need to tell he I know something is going on, but I'm not sure how to go about it?any help is gratefully received,thanks

odds are shes texting him because the 2 of u are unhappy and hes just a laugh... it might be harmless but the damage her secrecy and ur suspicions are having on your relationship is something you 2 need to talk about.

I think in a relationship of 3 years there should be a better sense of comfort with your girlfriend. You should be able to look at her phone if you want and ask what you want, I don't see the problem with that at all. My boyfriends have looked through my phone and I don't care, as I have nothing to hide. The only reason for someone to go crazy is if they are trying to hide something, they will try and twist the blame like "you should respect my privacy" blah blah, but flat out the only reason to be so mad is if there is something she is hiding. By lying that she is talking to her girlfriend shows she is trying to hide quite a bit from you. You should confront her. Don't allow her to turn it around on you, I don't feel you did anything wrong. Find out what's going on with this for real and that you won't stand being lied to and cheated on (cause yes, talking to an ex behind your back and lying about who it was is cheating). What you want to do is your decision. Just know she is in the wrong and there should be no problem comfronting her, good luck.

I also believe that you should tell her the truth.
