How do I find out the truth ?

Hi
I've been with my partner for over two years.
We live in separate houses as we both like where we live,we stay at each other's houses and planning to merge into one house together.

Today for the first time in 12 months I thought to look through my other halves phone just as curiosity and not expecting to see anything other than when he's meeting to play golf or meet his mates to go to the pub.
There was a number he'd text,no name ,the text said he'd had to leave to travel to South Wales for work today instead of tomorrow..he asked the recipe ant " when are you back next and do you stay in the same place" followed by a name and 4 digit number.
I googled the name and number and a site called FABGUYS.COM came up associated with the same name and number. I clicked on the same name and the person lived in the same area as my oartner ,similar height( he's exceptionally tall) and age. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF THAT.

I am not sure what to do as 1, I shouldn't have looked in his phone and 2, I need more evidence before I confront him without looking like a fool and just incase I am a complete bunny boiler,I don't want to look stupid.
Any advice on how to get concrete evidence or ways to find out properly is really whist I'd like advice on please xx

Hello
I'm a gay guy who has used this site. In my profile I ask guus with partners not to contact me.
You can join and then search for a guy by name and age and location (that narrows it down); most people leave photos - some very explicit - and you might recognise his that way.
The other way (which I think is a bit gruesome) would be to fake a photo assuming you have an idea what type of guy might appeal to him, and try to attract him.
When I say "gruesome" it's not as gruesome as having possibly unprotected sex with all the risks for others.
If you want me advice I'd save myself all of these shenanigans and just tell him.
You need to explain why you looked at his phone. Maybe you felt he was hiding things from you. .(I'm sure you'll find a way to justify it).
Please bear in mind he may NOT have contacted anyone or met them. He may just be "curious".
By letting him know you know might have the opppsite effect: he may want to come out completely and end the relationship.
You've not actually said what you want. Maybe it's time to find out?

@Underland. The thread is from 2015. It's a zombie and probably resolved one way or another by now.

and a good reason nit to throw the towel in until I'm certain it's him on the website.

Why would that message be in his email if he wasn't ??!
