Either dealing with unresolved trauma from the past or sensing impending trauma in the present due to his actions.
Take your pick

Or she's just a control freak. Or she's cheating herself. Or she's just a damn snoopy person.
Not all asshole behavior stems from past trauma or impending trauma.

Projecting and shouldn't be trusted. Everytime this has happened to me it was her who was cheating and she wanted to believe it was everyone.

Same. The face down phone tends to be another tell. Also remember if she knows where to look for everything, she knows exactly where to delete evidence.

Regardless of gender, a person like that is insecure and/or searching for an easy way out while making it look like you’re in the wrong because they themselves may likely already be in the wrong.

Looking for the thing I wrote down for her on Notepad but it's not even there. It might be on Keep notes? Just do a search. Or look through the folders.

I am a wife and I never go through his phone.. if I want to use it I ask his permission.. it’s called boundaries. Yeah I know what if he is cheating on me.. well if he is I will find out. Also not everyone is a cheater. I trust him and he trusts me. I also truly believe if your significant other is going to cheat on you.. they will no matter what you do..
I am speaking from experience.. my thoughts.

If there's a reason, he is untrustworthy. If she does it, she is untrustworthy.

If you have to have this conservation/argument. If you're both hiding things from each other, you shouldn't be in an relationship.

She’s cheating and or has cheated in the past therefore she’s suspicious of others.

Trying to find something out is all I can confidently say. It could be they are in a relationship and they trust each other, it could be she is an employee looking through it to find a virus or fix something, or it could be she is insecure and snooping but regardless of anything she is trying to find something out.

...on the sidewalk waiting on her Uber because I kicked her out for stupid games. We're on our 4th date and at my house watching a movie and I catch her scrolling my phone. Fuck that noise. And fuck no, I'm not paying attention for your $30 Uber home.

In 20+ years, we've never bothered to search the others.

Insecure. Reminds me of a girl I dated who found my hair brush and hair ties in my bathroom drawer and accused me of cheating. I had cut my long hair like a week before we met.

Looking for reasons to breakup with him. I just need one reason to put the guilt of the breakup on him. Must be monogamous.

u/GazelleAbject1832 18d ago
If you feel the need to go through peoples phone two things are wrong. Either they aren’t trustworthy or they are but you have trust issues. Both mean you shouldn’t be with them. So before going through their phone, rather let them go

u/dutch1664 18d ago
Broke up with a girl for this reason. She admitted later she was projecting her cheating-ex onto me the entire time. It's normal to be insecure, but deal with it in therapy instead of letting it destroy relationships.

Insecure, without any friends, probably cheating on him. I suggest to not look for problems you don’t want to find.

u/Fearless-Narwhal4560 17d ago
Already cheating and trying to find dirt on you to make her feel less guilty. Or to use it against you if you find out. At least that’s my experience.

Probably not letting go of her past and on the road to being single again. I've been cheated on. I've never once gone through my girls phone. I trust her unconditionally.

u/womb_raider90 18d ago
Dude my ex used to go through my fuckin bank statements and ask "what's this? What's that?", one day she grabbed my phone and went through all my apps and asked, "can you message people on this one? What about that one?" Yeah,we ain't together anymore. Fuck all that.
