My BF of 17 months and I hit a rocky patch.arguing over the same thing over and over. We've both been stressed and neither one of us handle it well. We've been doing OK this last week or 2. And then I decided that my 'gut feeling' that he was keeping something from me gave me carte blanche to go on to his tablet and check his messages. I found nothing incriminating. But I was honest and told him what I'd done. He was rightly furious, asked me to leave (we don't live together) and I snow nit speaking to me. I'm furious with myself that I even did that. I'm 40 and have never even felt compelled to do sk.ething like this. Not really looking for advice, just wanted to get it off my chest and don't really have anyone I can talk to.

The relationship is over.

”I'm 40 and have never even felt compelled to do sk.ething like this.”

This seems quite significant to me. Just because you didn’t find anything doesn’t mean there was nothing to find.

And even if there wasn’t anything to find, something must have made you feel unsettled.

The end of a relationship is always difficult, but it sounds like something had gone badly wrong in this one. Maybe time will help you see what it was, but it sounds like there was something far wrong before you actually searched.
