Wanted to see if girlfriend lied to me about ignoring a beta orbiter's dm's. One time I checked her phone while she was sleeping and saw he sent her a message after she said "I might block him if he keeps messaging me". I didn't open the conversation as it would say it was opened.

Recently I checked her phone again searched his name, opened the conversation this time(no more messages) and it seems she blocked him. Good.

However, when I was scrolling I went past a dm conversation with her ex. Last message was from a month before we were dating so no problem there. From the thumbnail the last message was him saying the word sorry. I was tempted, but I didn't open it.

I have the feeling that even though I didn't open the convo, I still snooped and am feeling guilty and ashamed. She didn't hide anything from me. This girl tells me she is afraid to lose me and likes me enough to give me anal, why do I feel doubt of her honesty?

I feel like telling her I looked through her phone for me to see if she was honest about the orbiter, which she was, and that I didn't open the convo with her ex.

Do I just deal with it and keep the guilt, or tell her and risk coming off as insecure? I feel I shoud trust her more, trp knowledge has done me well with her and she even gave me anal, which she refused her ex.
