More a thread about a lot of threads, rather than any one thread.
I have seen this so many times on here: women apologising for snooping, feeling guilty.
OK, so if you're in a relationship with no problem signs and you're compulsively checking your partner's phone, you probably need some support to understand why and to stop.
But - the vast majority of people who post here and apologise for snooping have had some instinct tell them to do it, and have been proved right that there was something to find. Don't underestimate your instinct!
I inadvertently came across suspicious stuff - then I snooped. Damn right I did, and I never felt a moment's guilt. He was a lying cheating bastard.
To all those who snoop and post on here with their worries: don't apologise here!
Cheating on your partner (whether full on affair or the beginnings of it) is a worse "relationship crime" than snooping when your instinct tells you something is amiss.
I'm sorry to anyone going through the double whammy of a shitty partner AND beating themselves up about how they know.

Lying cheating bastard trumps snoop, every time!
