My boyfriend takes his phone into the bathroom everytime he goes to the bathroom, should I be suspicious of this?

Question

It's not when he pees, it's when he goes to take a dump lol. He takes his phone EVERY time and I'm worried if he's hiding something. When I ask him why he says because he likes to look up stuff, like cars for sale on Craigslist, articles, etc, while taking a dump. He's in there for a long time too. It's not a short time. He keeps his phone on him like no other, very rarely he'll leave his phone alone with me in the room. He will say to me "here go through it. There's nothing in there." I refuse to do that. And it doesn't help anyways because he could have deleted the message from girls and what not. One time I did a wrong thing by looking through his phone while he was sleeping and I found nothing suspicious at all. However he did suspicious things in the past, so that's why I'm kinda insecure because he did cheat on me in the past. We were only broken up for a day and he was talking to girls and shacked up with one in a hotel. I still consider that cheating. He said he learned from that and will never do it again but it created trust issues. So I wanted others opinions on this. Should I be worried? Is he possibly cheating? Or is it a guy thing to take their phone while taking a dump to look up stuff? Like I said he tells me to go through his phone but I refuse to.

Well, I'M suspicious anyway IF you both adopted a "lock out" while pooping
although one could argue that the phone insanity has replaced even a book for those that ignore the doc about sitting too long on the pot (= hemorrhoids)

Craigslist mention is also suspect due to sex connections there, although most guys are hookup curious and get ego boosts from these, never acting on them when married

"nothing in there" = bald face lie so obvious to anyone that really cares

must disagree with cheating only if YOU made the break up

go through his phone! but not when invited, not after he's had hours on potty to erase the evidence, then after you've found the trouble looking for what then? Make his life miserable with an ultimatum? Hile Hitler? Boys will be boys and maybe with such evidence you shop for a replacement that has an unknown history of "cheating"?

A hard decision each of us must make...

I doubt he is doing anything. I do the same.. I have the kindle app on my phone. I read a book while I am using the restroom. I also keep my phone with me at all times. I work in a company where I am on call 24x7 not having my phone on me means I'm fired. if suggest not jumping to conclusions and actually do this new fangled thing called communication. you know the thing we use to do before everyone had their nose in their phone.. . tell him about your concerns rather than submitting to paranoia. you might get a result you like.

Are you suspecting your partner of cheating or having an extramarital affair?
I'll advice you to get proof first before confronting him/her. As that could result in unnecessary confusion in your relationship or marriage. it's always advisable to consult a professional hacker to help you get concrete evidence by discreetly getting access to their phone or computer. WORLDWIDEWEBHACK11 at GMAIL dot COM he has worked for me a couple of times and he never disappoints. he provides Accurate results and can be trusted for 100% privacy and really affordable fees.
You can also call him or send him a text on: +1 914 506 8695

Sorry but if you weren't together at the time he slept with another person then it's not cheating, I understand its pretty disrespectful but he didn't cheat. You're reading too much into it, so many people including myself take their phone into the bathroom.

I don't know anyone who doesn't take their phone with them when they have to take a shit. It sounds like your boyfriend needs more fiber in his diet. He seems to be a little constipated.

lot of people take their phones to the bathroom with them and spend an obscene amount of time just scrolling through whatever they want.. far more than is necessary for the length of the shit. it's a nice way to pass time and do something that isn't just focus on doing a number 2.

So you can't build trust by letting it go, and you can't build trust by just satisfying what you really want to do and go through it. And how on earth is it cheating if you were broken up, because he moved fast and you didn't like that?
Yes, I take my phone to look stuff up, it's no different from taking a newspaper back in the day, minus the supreme levels of trust issues.

thats not cheating when your single, its his phone it will go everywhere with him, also dont you remeber the days when men use to take a dump reading a newspaper? Guess what the phone is that unless he is taking more then 4 dumps a day and isn't sick then thats suspicious but he is use to taking dumps with his phone and looking stuff most men do this, get with it

I get so mad when I forget to bring my phone with me when I gotta sit there for a bit.. what a waste of time.. looking at the walls an floor.. hahaha. and if you are in a relationship where you feel the need.. desire.. or want to raid a phone "just to be sure" ... then your problems as a couple go way beyond what could be on a phone.

snowangle · Answer

Well for one thing... It's not really cheating if you guys had broken up.  Also, I usually take my phone in with me to poop too. Keeping my mind busy helps move things along... 😛  I wouldn't worry.

martyfellow · Answer

You can be pretty sure he regularly deletes any incriminating messages. THAT is probably what takes so long in the bathroom!!! So in case he forgets, or when he's asleep, he knows you might look through it but there won't be anything to find.

I'm single, and I do that too. I get on iFunny or G@G every time I go to the bathroom. Sometimes I get so involved that I end up staying in for a really long time too.

I think you're being a tad paranoid.

Machiavelli · Answer

We all take our phones into the bathroom, it's a bad habit but we all do it. What else is he gonna do?, read the paper lol.

DamonGill · Answer

You are so paranoid for no reason... I thought everyone takes their phone when going for a dump... I either watch YouTube videos or just scroll on social media to pass the time.

Next time he says to check out his phone. Look for a folder called ". nomedia" (if it's an android phone). Anything I'm there I'd hidden from the photo gallery app, the music player app, and the video app.

GregW7 · Answer

I'm on my phone having a dump right now. It's to keep me occupied

Matt57 · Answer

I just scroll through facebook and play games😂. I don't think there's anything to be suspicious about.

RedThread · Answer

I think you're being paranoid. I watch YouTube videos whilst taking a shit.  If he cheated on you then why are you still with him?

TheUglyMonk · Answer

I prefer taking a Nintendo with me to the restroom. Technically speaking that wasn't cheating since you broke up but yea I get that it still hurt you.

KhoryESM · Answer

I always have my phone with me, I've had it for 3 years now & yea some people take it when they poo but I don't know

I can't go to the bathroom without my phone and I'm single. If you distrust him that much i recommend just talking about it

Anonymous · Answer

I always take my phone to the toilet and never get off it - and I'm not hiding anything (unless you don't want him watching porn)

MattHasegawa · Answer

Just ask him, when people lying, face expression can tell you that he's lying.

Bezbozhnikustanka · Answer

He's probably sending dick pics to your sister!
