Might also post this in the Technology forum part. Looking for IPhone users to advise me.
Been dating a man for just over a year. We split up twice already earlier in the year as I found out he was looking up his ex girlfriend in Scotland. Pretty constantly. As in, almost every night. I snooped on his phone because we weren't having sex, it had become very sporadic at best, and he was behaving shifty with his phone.
Call it female intuition. I don't know. But what I found confirmed it. Every night I wasn't with him, sometimes just after I'd driven home, he was on her FB page and Googling her. So 4 or 5 nights of the week. Early in our relationship, after we'd agreed not to see other people, after he told me he loved me and asked me to live with him.
I had it out with him around May time and he said he was just curious about her. She has a certain look that I know he is really into but I don't. She is around 15 years older than me. I'm 58. He is 69. I forgave him. Moved on.
Earlier today he gave me his phone to send an email for him. He is dyslexic so really struggles with officialdom. On his Home screen on his iphone was a picture of her in the top right hand corner. I said what is your ex doing on your new phone. He only got the phone in June and told me he had deleted all the photos from the old Samsung, which I had even checked and cleaned as I sold it on EBay for him.
I tapped on the photo and it opened an entire album of her photos, around 30 at a glance, and the album dated June 2020. He said he didn't know how to delete them. Then added had I ever been to Scotland as it's really stunning.
I'm out shopping and due to talk to him later this evening. We're meant to be having dinner together. I need to get my facts straight.
Where did the photos come from if they weren't on his old phone originally? By the way, a most important fact, it ended in 2021. He has been single before meeting me in 2025.
If you are accessing an album on an iphone either recently or regularly, would the album and/or images appear on your Home screen? I've never noticed this before when helping him with stuff on the new phone.
Sounds clear as mud 🤣 Hope someone can help me.
