asktatianna answered Saturday July 3 2010, 6:47 pm: yea...he's hidding something so you should ask him first and if he gives you the'' you have to trust me '' line then its up to you to belive hi, but I really wouldnt. [ asktatianna's advice column | Ask asktatianna A Question ]
xokristabelle answered Saturday July 3 2010, 3:23 am: To be honest, yes, you should. It doesn't necessarily mean he's cheating, but it probably does mean he's saying/doing something he wouldn't want you to see. Your best bet is to flat out ask him (in a non-accusatory way) why he's so secretive about his phone and see how he reacts. [ xokristabelle's advice column | Ask xokristabelle A Question ]
OhMyLucyDarling answered Saturday July 3 2010, 12:18 am: Yes, I'd be suspicious.
I think in a relationship your boyfriend is entitled to his privacy, However if he is going to be acting paranoid and getting to the point where he watches your every move and sleeps with is phone...That's a bit of a sketchy situation and it's a heads up.

TheInspiration answered Friday July 2 2010, 9:39 pm: Honestly if it were me, i'd be worried, but i'm a verrrryy jealous person and worry about everything. I'd be worried he's hidding something. But it could be that he's just protective over his phone or doesnt want you getting any of his friends numbers and talking to them. Maybe you should ask him why hes so protective over his phone, if it takes him a while to answer you or looks around at something else, fiddles with his hands, or covers up his mouth when he talks then more than likely the reason he says, is a lie. Goodluck!
snarky answered Friday July 2 2010, 9:38 pm: I'm a firm believer that some things are private matters. Yes, even in relationships. Phone snooping is bad, unless you truly have suspicions.
But obviously you do, and his paranoia when you're asking to see his phone might very well be because he's hiding something.
You need to discuss this with him - if there's nothing to hide, then he can let you look at his phone. Truly. That means before he deletes anything. [ snarky's advice column | Ask snarky A Question ]
