I recently read a few pages of my gf's journal (I know, I know, I shouldn't have) and she mentioned another guy that she is interested in. She writes about how happy she is when she sees this guy. Should I confront her about it or just see what happens?

If she doesn't want you to find out she shouldn't write it down or tell anyone. Things like this happen. Yes you need to do something about this. I know a guy whose girlfriend cheated on him through e-mails to another guy. She told him to go into her e-mail account to get something for her and while he was in there he found out. His friend convinced him to keep checking her e-mail. This isn't wrong. It's called curiosity and knowing the truth. Don't tell her that you read her diary, but confront her about what you learned in a indirect way. Say things like "how do you feel our relationship is going?" or "you've been acting different lately, are you having doubts?". Things like that. If she doesn't tell you anything, let it go and try to get a peek at her diary again after awhile to see if it was just a phase or not. If it's not a phase ask her directly. "Do you like so and so?". If at any time she asks you if you read her diary, don't lie, but try to avoid the question.
Trust needs to go both ways. She's talking about another guy so you have every right to check up on her even if it may have been wrong in the beginning. I hope I helped you and I hope everything gets worked out between you and your girlfriend. Good luck! [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]

You really have no right to know that so you don't have a right to be angry at her about that. If you tell her she'll be very mad. You invaded her privacy so if you tell her it's defininetly going to be over. She may still like you more than this guy so don't blow it.

ellamouse9 answered Monday February 13 2006, 5:09 pm: You're right, you should never have done that but I suppose what's done is done. Clearly if you read her journal then your relationship has some trust issues - and to me it looks like your suspicions are confirmed. I suppose it all depends on how you are mentioned in context - ie if she says that she's happy when she sees him but she still loves you, or if you're not mentioned at all. I would bring it up with her if you are still suspicious, mainly because otherwise you'll drive yourself mad imagining things that may not be true, and that's not fair to either of you. But I hope the two of you work things out - good luck! [ ellamouse9's advice column | Ask ellamouse9 A Question ]
