    :rolleyes: so i've heard. i assume you mean "again"? cos it already happened once. if that's what you call finding a way, love needs googlemaps.
    I know it happened before. I just didn't want to bring it up again because you have said how much you loved that girl.
    It will happen again. You are still quite young.
    Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
    And I don't feel right when you're gone away

    People who read their partner's texts - What are you looking for? I cant see it as being anything other than pretty insecure or unsure of your relationship. Would rather not be in a relationship if that's the way it was!
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    Are you sure you do not have any other stuff on there?
    Think hard.
    And are the text messages really from a month ago?

    You know, I thought really hard about this, and I did wonder. But then I know I've not txtd any other girls - other than friends - over the past month, and that any dodgy stuff on my phone would have been from before I first slept with her. I was still flirting with other girls just after I first met her, but we hadn't become 'a couple' at the point that I first met her in a bar, so those other txts were legit in my book.
    But yeah, I did think long and hard, but I was pretty certain that she had no case against me...thank God.

    It's weird that she won't give you your phone. If all the text messages were from before you knew her, I think it's she's being unreasonable but I guess I really don't know the whole story. I guess just your side.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    people really should learn to read threads back to front. I'm guilty of it myself though, so I shouldn't say anything.

    this is another excellent point about this girl's character. I don't think I'd want to be with someone who took that advantage to snoop on me. she was probably *hoping* to find something in order to create drama.

    Ha..ha..Im at work so that's not feasible. I assumed you told the whole story in your first post. I should have quoted it. It really comes down to trust..if you trust the person you're with you don't have to be checking their text messages, emails, etc.

    Ah well....I got my phone back this evening. There was nothing on there since after we first spent the night together.
    I txtd her to tell as much. I then just called her about 10 minutes ago, and she answered the phone just as I was about to give up and hang up. I said my piece...and it's all cool. She admitted that she'd over-reacted.
    I'm going down to see her Saturday now. :)

    And thanks for all your input today guys and girls. You helped me hold my chin up.


    There you are...Bob's your uncle.

    Now administer that firm spanking!

    yes, but not young enough to believe in santa clause, the tooth fairy, and true love conquering all ;)

    though it can, apparently, get your phone back for you :)

    Not sure if it is 'snooping' or shows anything of the lady's character. A lot of people are just plain curious and I'm sure that, faced with the same 'opportunity' a lot of people on this board would do the same... even if they are not prepared to admit it.

    That is not curiosity for me, its invasion of privacy. If you give permission to your partner to look at your messages/emails/mail etc fair enough, but going through it without permission in my eyes is wrong. I dont actually think ive ever gone through ANYONE's phone messages, never mind a girlfriend's. Messages sent to someone else's phone aren't meant for my eyes!!

    I agree...I think if someone had doubt in their mind it will leave them susceptible to that type of behavior.

    I agree. I had PLENTY of opportunities to read my boyfriend's emails but it never even crossed my mind.

    I'm not denying I'd be curious... and if the opportunity were there it would be tempting :o but if I DID do it I'd be very ashamed of myself though.

    Surely you'd feel guilty as hell. I wouldnt want to feel that kind of guilt.

    One can always notice these women who trust their men, they look so terribly unhappy.
