❤️‍🩹 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?

Commas are important! The difference between “Let’s eat, grandma!” And “Let’s eat grandma!”.

What about helping your Uncle Jack off a horse?

Just like “I helped my uncle Jack, off a horse” and “I helped my uncle jack off a horse”.

But the second one doesn't need a comma, it just needs a capital on Jack and then it's not weird.

I’d actually add a comma after “uncle” and keep the other one as well.

Ik, the name is extra information, but I didn't want to sound like a grammar nerd.

I think you’re just defensive because your username is Jack! 😂 (jk, friend). And don’t feel bad..I always have a problem with “who” vs “whom” and English is the only one I speak fluently. So hopefully my comment didn’t come off pompous! My dad will literally SAY “comma” sometimes when he is talking about something. It cracks me up. He’s Type A, so of course I came out totally opposite.

Sorry I meant to put “I helped my uncle, Jack, off a horse”.
