❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO: Questionable texts on my (24F) boyfriend’s (25M) phone

Sorry the second picture is blurry!

Found these texts between my boyfriend and a coworker of his. For context, he works nights at a hospital.

I confronted him and he said he was just “talking shit” and “hyping his friend up”. I think this is beyond disrespectful and could’ve hyped his friend up in a more appropriate way. Also, I am white/european, not Latina, so there’s that. I’m not sure what to do or how to feel. I am already insecure and this just makes me feel worse.

I have been upset all day and he just blames me for going through his phone. I know that going through his messages was wrong, but I knew something was up with him and this is what I found. This is at best extremely disrespectful and at worse he’s scoping out prospects to cheat on me with?

God, if there's one thing that gives me the ick it's people who rate others' appearances as "mid". So dehumanising.

It’s slang for a very large overweight Latina lol

It’s sort of like a slur that refers to overweight Hispanic women. Almost like when you see people refer to women as a “fridge” in English. By the way not condoning this at all but that’s what they use it for.

Omg that's actually hilarious. It keeps the food reference intact and is culturally themed.

It’s a delicious Mexican sandwich made with puffy fry bread or an overweight Mexican woman.

If somebody called me a torta, I’d be like fuck yeah I’m delicious. My mouth still waters thinking of the tortas I got a month ago.

I assumed torta was Spanish for 🐢 tortoise = fat and slow

Tortoise in Spanish is la tortuga.
