Is he lying/cheating?
so last night me and my boyfriend layed down to go to bed but usually we watch tik tok before we fall asleep. i wanted to watch mine but we watched mine the other night so it was his turn. right when we layed down and got on his tik tok he went to his messages portably to view the tik toks i sent him that he didn’t watch. i’m the only person who messages him on there because i’m the only person he knows that has an account that he follows. but there was another message and i asked who it was from, he clicked on it and very quickly clicked out and sat up and i saw him delete the text message. i asked “wtf? who is that??” and he went on to say i don’t know i don’t know blah blah blah. we went on the profile and it was some random girl who wasn’t famous and didn’t have a lot of videos but i really didn’t get a good look because he erased the profile from his messages as well. the message was about a sentence and all i thought i saw was “hey are you from LA?” and then some more stuff i didn’t get a chance to view. i’m not sure if it said that just what i thought i saw. he went on to say he doesn’t remember doing that even tho the message was sent the day before. he blamed it on his friends taking his phone when we were at his friends house the night before and they might of done that. but that doesn’t make up for the fact he was so quick to delete the message. he later went on to cry and kept saying he’s a fuck up and can’t do anything right.
i also asked him if i could see his instagram dm’s cause that would give me a lot of reassurance and he would not let me see. he said he doesn’t wanna be that couple who does that. but it’s not like i’m randomly asking, he gave me a reason for suspicion and i’m trying to get a peace of mind. THEN, he said he wanted to go “check on the dogs” to make sure they were okay, (figured he was going on instagram to delete or see his dm’s before showing me) and sure enough i saw he was active on instagram the second he walked out. then when he came back he was like “okay i’ll show you my dm’s” but he wouldn’t let me hold his phone nor see his regular messages or snapchat.
i’m just so sad and confused. he’s been extra loving since then it’s only been 12 hours but he’s been more affectionate and doing things he stopped doing probably because he thinks i’m gonna break up with him. he kept asking that too. idk
what do you think? do you think he’s telling the truth?
