I’ve been with my boyfriend for almost 3 years to the date. Yesterday morning, while my boyfriend was still sleeping, I picked up his cell phone and started looking though it (I don’t know what compelled me to do it, I’ve never did this before.) I figured I would just see text messages from me, his family, friends, I was SHOCKED to find several from a girl, a girl who was his ex-girlfriend. My heart was racing, I felt like I was going to throw up, but I read every single one. They text messages went all the way back to April (so 2 months) I walked into his room and woke him up and asked him if he had anything to tell me, and if everything was OK…. I started crying/sobbing and he was like, what’s wrong, I asked him why he’s been seeing his ex-girlfriend and I pulled out his cell phone.
He turned white. The text messages were mainly about them meeting up, etc and also some inappropriate and even somewhat sexual. My boyfriend said that nothing happened and they were just hanging out and being friends.. really? with those text messages? I have never seen my boyfriend cry and he started tearing up, crying and almost sobbing. (I’m not sure what that means?) I feel so betrayed and distraught. I don’t know what to think or who to believe… we spoke more last night about it and he said he’s been talking with her for about 6 months and that they met up maybe a dozen times, but according to their text messages, some of the meetings were at each of their apartments, isn’t that a bit strange? He’s said he never meant to hurt me and if the roles were reversed he’d be just as upset. He said he loves me so much and has never felt the way he feels about me, about anyone else…. (then why would he do this to me?!)
What do I do? HELP!! I’ve been a mess since yesterday… crying at the drop of a hat. depressed.
