I know I shouldn't have looked at DHs mobile - now wish I really hadn't

I was going to use the phone, switched off, so I turned on and looked in his inbox - have found two recent messages from a woman - don't know who, only identified as 'S'.

Shit shit shit
Now what? he's out at the moment and will probably be half pissed when he comes in

What do the messages say?

fireflyfairy2 · 05/01/2007 22:23

How do you know 'S' is a woman?

brandy7 · 05/01/2007 22:24

aw come one you have to tell us what they say

MamazonAKAfatty · 05/01/2007 22:25

what do they say? hwo do you know its a woman? and if you just needed to use his phone what were you doing in the inbox?

You must have had some nagging feeling for you to go snooping surely.

littlemissbossy · 05/01/2007 22:26

Nothing much

first says merry christmas sweetie sx
second says happy new year sx

the second was sent 2 seconds after midnight on new years eve - could be a general text to loads of people I guess

but WTF is she?? do I ask him or leave it?? am I reading too much into this?

Sounds pretty inocuous, tbh. Could it be his sister?

Ring the number

littlemissbossy · 05/01/2007 22:28

No nagging feeling in fact we've been getting on great recently - was going to send a message to someone, can't get to grips with his phone though - not making excuses that's the truth, my mobiles real simple his isn't, ended up in the inbox and saw them

could just be a womn he works with, some people are just gooshie. I really wouldn't let this worry you, unless you have other reason to be worried.

prettymum · 05/01/2007 22:28

i think you might be reading too much into it.

hunkermunker · 05/01/2007 22:28

Thing is, it could very well be nothing.

There's a bloke I know from where I worked yonks ago - we text every now and then, they're probably messages that could be misinterpreted by someone who didn't know me or him - and I often put kisses on texts to most people. Doesn't mean anything, IMO.

The only reason I'd be concerned by those messages is if I was already worried about my DH.

MamazonAKAfatty · 05/01/2007 22:29

they sound very similar to the texts i sent to everyone i know...male and female.

it could be someone from work, someone he knows through someone else...anything.

I think the texts are more incocent than the fact you snooped tbh. i wouldn't say anything as i would imagine he would feel angry that you went looking through his phone.

maybe ask how many new years texts he recieved or something simple like that and see what he says.

1sue1 · 05/01/2007 22:30

I don't like her use of the word 'sweetie'

littlemissbossy · 05/01/2007 22:30

Nothing in sent - he's saved her number as 'Tiger' - excuse my french but it ain't his fuckin sister!

OP posts:
fireflyfairy2 · 05/01/2007 22:31

I put kisses on everyones texts! My BIL always calls me babe when he texts me! Good job Dh isn't the jealous kind

Anyway, small jab at reassurance... but if he knew the number surely she wouldn't have had to put sx on them? He would already have had her number saved in his phone?

colditz · 05/01/2007 22:31

I once hd a hystericl woman ring me and scream down the phone to keep away from her facking husband

turned oput to be one of dp's mates. Dp had given him my number and put it in his phone under my nme, because he couldn't remember his own number!

I must say I lost all respect for her after tht, she sounded like a bloody lunatic.

1sue1 · 05/01/2007 22:31

Tiger?? I would tell him you were texting and came across someone called Tiger..you don't need at that point to tell him you read the messages, just say' wtf is tiger?'

littlemissbossy · 05/01/2007 22:32

I too send messages with kisses on all the time - but not to other peoples husbands
starting to go from to now

misdee · 05/01/2007 22:32

colditz · 05/01/2007 22:33

Mmm, see you re staarting to sound a bit irrational now. The bloke hs recieved a text messgae and you are angry?

littlemissbossy · 05/01/2007 22:33

I know misdee, I know
but how the hell would he like it!!! ARRGGHH

OP posts:
1sue1 · 05/01/2007 22:34

i think she sounds frustrated more than anything...its the not knowing.

welshboris · 05/01/2007 22:34

Ring her and growl down the phone to her like a tiger

littlemissbossy · 05/01/2007 22:35
