I have been having trust issues with my boyfriend. He does not know that I have access to his email account, and I do check regularly to see that he is true to me. Last night, I logged in and read an email he sent to an old 'friend.' He had mentioned her to me briefly before, but he did not go into details. All I know is that they had a long-distance friendship with occasional phone sex, although they never met each other in person because of the distance. It seems from the email that he hasn't spoken to her in quite a while, but she has been in his thoughts recently. The one thing that stood out was how he mentioned he was 'living on his own' now, since they last talked. He did not mention me, or the fact that he is living WITH me in the email.
I cannot ask him about this because it would mean admitting that I snooped through his emails. He has betrayed my trust in the past, and I have given him so many chances. Although this is not the worst he has done, I still find it hurtful and inconsiderate that he does not acknowledge this tidbit. Should this be the last straw?
