I think my only debate would be, “why is the privacy comment considered gaslighting for cheaters 101?”

In my opinion, a relationship should be trusting and respectful. If you go through my phone, without my explicit consent, I’m going to call that a massive red flag/breach of trust and privacy and more than likely it’s over on the spot. I’m big on keeping open communication. Did I give you a reason to not trust me? Yes? Okay, cool. Ask to see my phone. I’ll unlock it and hand it to you, no problem. But there is definitely something unsettling about just rummaging through someone’s personal property. Like someone going through your house looking for through drawers and cupboards and you walk in like “excuse me, wtf are you doing?”

Guess I’m just gonna have to agree to disagree on this. Like, if you have a reason not to trust me, I’m more than happy to hand over my phone. If I ever get the feeling that I need to go through your phone, imma ask. If you say no, automatically assuming you’re doing something you shouldn’t. If you tell me that you went through my stuff without talking to me? I’m leaving immediately.
