Strange email and number on phone...

    ...partner lied to me some time back about other stuff. Not going to get into it but because of it, I have become slightly paranoid and I, on occasion, check his phone. I know this is seen as the biggest sin in the world but to be honest, right now, I don't care.
    My main issue is this - I went into his google account through Safari on the iphone.
    It came up - 'Welcome Mary Bloggs' (not real name but a female name). When I clicked into this account there was a phone number and email.

    Not sure if I am making myself clear?

    I don't really know what this means?

    Its like 'Mary' had used the phone at some stage to set up a google account? The number and email aren't actually saved in his contacts...

    Rang the number - it is a person called 'Mary' so its not a fake account......

    I was just hoping someone on here could clarify for me......is it possible that its a mistake? A crossover of some sorts?

    Thanks

    Sorry misunderstood your question....

    It sounds like Mary used his phone to login into her email at some point. It might not have been recent, if he doesn't use safari as his browser of choice. But there isn't another way it would have logged into her account.

    ...partner lied to me some time back about other stuff. Not going to get into it but because of it, I have become slightly paranoid and I, on occasion, check his phone.

    It all depends really OP. If he lied about an affair or visiting escorts sites or something I could probably understand your paranoia. "Other stuff" is very vague and if he had good reason not to tell you something that wasn't malicious
    then you are certainly in the wrong.

    In any case, has he given you free reign to check on his phone because of his previous behaviour? Anything can be in a phone these days OP. A missed call here, login details there. The problem is that you don't trust him. So any small detail, no matter how innocuous, could be read as a serious transgression.

    This detail here as you have listed could be anything. It could have been a mate of his checking an email. Or it could be an sti riddled prostitute. No one here is going to be able to tell you. Only he can. And then you have to choose to trust him or not.

    It doesn't sound like the makings of a happy ending either way OP.

    Did he buy the iphone from new or was it secondhand?
    Just in case it was a previous owner's details?

    What if its someone he works with or knows and she was just using his phone . Id ring the no and ask for him and see what she says

    Why don`t you ask him? Presumably you know this man well enough to gauge his reaction. My gut reaction is you know the answer to this already and you`re looking for doubt so you don`t have to tackle the obvious problems in your relationship - by that I mean you clearly don`t trust him and seem to have reasons from before not to.
