Is he texting another woman again ?

[Emmie26000]

Long story short, DH and I went through a rough patch and he texted another woman sexually. He had slept with her years ago and from the messages I saw, they didn’t meet up since we have been together.
We sorted things and fast forward to today, he was holding the baby and I wanted to know the time. His phone was next to him and I went to grab it to check the time and he snatched it so fast away. It immediately got my back up and I said Wow what have you got you hide? It then turned to a row and I said show me your phone then? He point blank refused and stormed out. My gut is telling me he’s hiding something, because why not just unlock the phone infront of me? What should I do now?

Of course he is hiding something. And, if it is merely his word that he did nothing more than cheat emotionally, and not physically, I would warrant that there is a likelihood that this is not the entire truth.

He is definitely hiding something I would be demanding he show me the phone or piss off and not come back

Between then and now I can assure you the messages are gone.

Yes, @Emmie26000, your H is up to something again, and the evidence that was on his phone will now be deleted.

What recovery requirements did you set after his previous infidelity? Providing open access to phones and other devices is necessary for the injured partner’s healing and the restoration of trust. He doesn’t get to act dodgy, snatch his phone away, and refuse transparency.

You’ve been in a false reconciliation, @Emmie26000. He is hiding another illicit relationship and is treating you with utter contempt. Sharp consequences are in order, so I’d be sending him away and considering my options. I wouldn’t be hanging around while he serves up more of his shit sandwiches.
