Should my boyfriend let me see his phone?
And why would you want to see his phone?
I want to read what he’s been texting instead of listening to me talk.
One of the issues with this is privacy. He may not want you seeing the jokes he’s been
sharing with his friends.
Especially if they were about me.
The other issue is with trust. If you’re demanding to see his phone, that suggests
you don’t trust him.
Maybe I don’t.
If he doesn’t let you read it, you get paranoid and more distrustful. Then it is a vicious
cycle.
He could just let me see it.
And how badly will he get beaten with the phone if you find out he’s said something
rude about you? Or simply made of the chick flick you were both watching?
He won’t even let me check my email on his computer.
Maybe he doesn’t want it to get infected by malware, or deliberately infected by a
keystroke logger you put on it.
What do you think I should do?
Do you let him read your emails and text messages?
Hardly.
Then give him the same respect.
He shouldn’t be so protective of it. It isn’t like the NSA hasn’t already read
all of those text messages.
Or sent any sexting to five other officers for review.
I want to keep tabs on him.
Now I wonder if you’re going to put one of those GPS location reporting apps on his
phone that sends you a text message every time he goes somewhere.
I need to get that software.
Your jealous and sneaky behavior might seem romantic at first because you want to be with
him so much, but it gets tiring and drives a guy away eventually.
Then I need to know if he’s planning to break up with me.
I think you’ll find that out for yourself soon enough.
