So girls, I accidentally opened an old message thread on his phone, and I couldnât help but read it. A lot has happened, quite intimate conversations and all. Now Iâm really torn inside, should I bring this up with him or just leave it alone? What would you do if you were in my place?
Honestly, I did something like that once too. I read the messages with his ex-girlfriend. Then I couldnât hold back and said, âWhy are you bringing this up?â The relationship got pretty tense. But I was feeling uncomfortable, and if I hadnât said anything, it would have grown inside me. I think you should talk about it, but approach the topic calmly.
I think you shouldnât speak at all. If you ask why, itâs like interfering in your private life. There was no need to snoop through the phone anyway; now how are you going to explain what youâve read? Donât put yourself in an unjust position while trying to be honest ![]()
Some of the old messages may actually have been written before the relationship started. It could also be just a simple friendship chat. Itâs important to think calmly, as the other person is likely to see this from a defensive position. If they are feeling very hurt, you might try sharing your own feelings instead of placing blame as you talk.
I also want to add this: the messages are not very old. Theyâre from a few months ago. But still, I havenât seen anything clear, meaning thereâs nothing that could jeopardize our relationship. But I just canât seem to get it out of my mind.
Youâre saying the messages are from a few months ago now, which is a different situation. If I were you, I would definitely talk about it. Because a few months ago means it was while you were in a relationship. But donât go in with direct questions; explain it gently like, âI just want to ask something.â If the explanation makes sense, donât let it drag on.
