Ever accused a partner of cheating and they weren’t??? Regretting my choice

I just dumped my boyfriend (relatively newish relationship) because I just didn’t trust him. Nothing major or explosive happened. I don’t usually have trust issues in relationships, and I’ve never (to my knowledge) been cheated on.

My boyfriend is quite young, and I think immature. He’s quite flirty by nature and small things have added up to make me doubt me... stupidly or not I actually ended the relationship because he puts his phone in airplane mode when he is around me...

So. Have you ever accused and been wrong?

I’m leaning towards that he’s just immature and stupid and wouldn’t actually DO anything... but what if I’m just naive?

Sounds like you trusted your instincts
Nothing wrong with that

No but I've been accused of cheating when I wasn't and it destroyed our relationship from then on.

At the end of the day if you even think of accusing then there's not much trust there.

No I haven't but if you don't trust him then you're better off breaking up with him. It is pretty strange to put his phone on airplane mode when he's with you though, did he say why he does that?

@AryaStarkWolf he said it’s because I don’t like it when he goes on his phone Confused

I don't think it matters if you are wrong. If there was no trust there is no relationship anyway.

Do you?

You did the right thing. Even if he's not cheating, he shouldn't be with you if you have trust issues to deal with.

Are you relieved it's over?

I once accused someone of something because I couldn’t believe that they were so nice to do what they said, then I checked their phone and they had been telling the truth

Felt like a hideous witch and we split a while after. Learnt my lesson. Some men are decent
