What should I do as an 18-year-old female? Is it a good idea to look at my boyfriend's phone, who is 19?

Hey everyone, my boyfriend (19M) and I have been together for three years, but he cheated on me (18F) in the past. We broke up, and after some time apart, we saw enough progress to give our relationship another chance. Since then, we've been happily dating for over a year without any repeat incidents. However, I've recently been feeling a strong urge to check his messages, something I've never done before. Should I go ahead and do it?

Do you trust your boyfriend enough to communicate your feelings instead of checking his phone?

Are you feeling secure in your relationship, or do you think your urge to check his phone is a sign of ongoing trust issues?

It's understandable to feel uneasy after past hurt. Instead of checking his phone, try talking openly about your feelings. Communication builds trust!

Trust is the foundation of any relationship. Before checking his phone, consider talking to him about your feelings. Expressing your concerns can strengthen your bond. Remember, the urge may stem from past hurt, and open communication might ease your mind better than snooping. Trust takes time to rebuild!

Trust your instincts, but open communication is key. Talk to him about your feelings instead.

Trust is a delicate thing, especially after past hurts. Maybe instead of looking at his phone, have an open conversation about your feelings. Share your worries and see how he responds. Building trust together can be much healthier than sneaking a peek. You’ve made it this far—let’s keep the communication flowing!
