Have you ever been convinced that your partner is either cheating on you, or would if the situation arose? Did you ever spy on them or "test" their loyalty?
Once when I was a teenager, I didn't trust my girlfriend....so I had one of my friends call her up and pretend to holla at her. I was listening in on three-way. She failed the test and that was that. I thought what I was doing was perfectly justified, but my mother (when I told her about it) said for setting her up like that, I deserved to get what I was hoping to find: disloyalty.
I did it again when I was about 19. This was back when AOL chat rooms were still popular and my ex used to like them. She made no secret of liking them (in fact it was how we met.) When we first started dating, she would call me up and disguise her voice....pretending to be someone else, seeing how I would respond. Haha. I never fell for it and didn't make a big deal out of it. After we had been involved for over half a year, I turned the tables on her....once I caught her in a chat room, so I created a dummy AOL account & profile, and holla'd at her pretending to be someone else. It seemed as though she fell for it. The whole time I'm IM'ing her as this other dude....I'm mad as hell, but kept up the charade long enough to get her #. I called, barely said hello and was hung up on. When I tried to call back she had call blocked me. I get online and she sends me this very angry email, accusing me of not trusting her, and saying that all along she knew it was me. I had to wonder if that part was true, but whatever. We broke up for about 2 months after that, but the relationship was never quite the same after.
So....what say you? Have you ever been paranoid that your partner was cheating (or been with someone who was paranoid that you were)? Was it true, were they?
