I think my GF is cheating on me ...

I know this is a bit strange, but I have no one else to turn to and search for an answer. It's about the recent relationship I'm in. I know many of you have some much more experience on this, and some of you are even married and have kids, so I thought you would know better. I tried asking this on seduction forums, but people there mocked me.

Anyway, I've met this cute girl about 6 months ago at a party. She's really, really cute: she has deep blue eyes, blonde curly hair and has the smile of an angel. I don't know what it was, but we fell in love with each other immediately.

The first few months were great: lots of sex, lots of hanging around and having fun, and I even met her parents, despite the fact I'm so afraid of meeting parents. We didn't move together, but she always stayed at my place, and it surely felt we were actually living together.

But, after a few months, we started drifting apart. She didn't spent as many nights over at my place as she did in the past, and she became more like a stranger than a lover. However, we would still meet, and when I would ask her "What did you do last night/weekend?" she would usually reply saying things like "I went over to Alexandra's place" or some other girl's name, always reassuring me that these chicks are her college mates. Even sex started being rarer and rarer, and not so enjoyable.

One day, I remember I wanted to "spy" on her by checking out her cell phone to see what texts she received and what phone calls she made. Usually, she has no problem with me playing with her phone, but now, she started yelling at me and acting like a psycho just for unlocking her phone, saying things like "Why aren't you respecting my privacy? I never check out your cell phone!"

This led me to believe she was seeing some other guy (I suspected it was her ex-boyfriend, because she once referred to him as "her greatest love".) But I couldn't find clue to confirm my suspicions on her cell phone since she didn't let me play with it, so I wanted to check her Facebook account and see if she had any messages there.

Now, I didn't have her Facebook password, but one day she logged-in her email account, and forgot to log-out. So, I thought I would go over to Facebook and reset her password and receive a password reset email in her email account, which I would use to set a new password. I also planned to delete this email when she would try to log-in on Facebook and saw her password was incorrect.

So I went over to Facebook, asked to reset the password, and indeed, I received a confirmation message saying I would receive and email with the password-reset instructions in a few minutes. Minutes passed by, but still, no email got in her inbox. But then I remembered she's using Gmail and she has the "Promotional" tab on, so I checked there. Needless to say, the email was there.

Now, why do you think the email landed in the "Promotional" tab instead of the "Inbox" one, as it should have? Do you think Google sees Facebook messages as promotional, and therefore a waste of the person's time?

Let's discuss this.

    The moment you decide its time to invade your girlfriends privacy,
    is the moment you should end the relationship.

    Justified or not, you have trust issues.

    This particular relationship is doomed.

    In your next relationship if you have questions / doubts ... ask her
    face to face ... eyeball to eyeball ... give her that respect.

    Also, never look thru some one elses stuff... that is just rude, wrong
    and definitely shows a lack of maturity.

      I thinks he is joking. Didn't you read the last lines in his post?

    Like Ken said, you have issues. You think this is normal behavior? (I mean you, not her) It doesn't matter if she's seeing someone else, she isn't into you anymore. Move on.

    And stop acting like a stalker.


    Added later....

    Now, why do you think the email landed in the "Promotional" tab instead of the "Inbox" one, as it should have? Do you think Google sees Facebook messages as promotional, and therefore a waste of the person's time?

    I simply didn't get that part. You pulled a pretty good one over our eyes. Well done.

    If you have doubts about her save yourself some pain
    and get out now.
    From the sound of her behavior, it appears she's trying to
    get out anyway.

    I think you are all missing the point.

    For some reason, Gmail is treating Facebook confirmations as promotional emails (!)

    Damn, I should have tried harder. I got this on an auto forum and the punch line was something like: "So I parked the car in front of the apartment building to see her when she came home and see if she came with another man. I hid behind the car and waited for her to come, when I saw this big oil spill under the car. Do you think I can fix this myself, or I do I need to take the car to a service?"

      Lucian; Of course, ignore my earlier post. To be honest, I didn't understand the last line. So I didn't get the joke.

      The fact that you understood the joke and I didn't? There can be only one explanation...only one.

      I am simply too brilliant to get such a silly joke. That fantasy will keep me warm at night. :rolleyes:

    You do present an issue that we all have to deal with sometimes. But it's been a while since gmail has started relegating emails from certain sources to other folders. It is not surprising in the case of Facebook, since it is a Google competitor.

    Let's discuss this.
    Perhaps she hasn't cleaned her cookies lately? Did you check the ads in her sidebar? Were they for "college girls?"

    If the email landed in the "promotional tab", perhaps you need to think that through...:confused:

    My goodness, it just dawned on me... WAS THE RED LIGHT ON WHEN YOU LOGGED IN... <--- I said "logged in"

    Nice try, Lucin. I think it's funny - unfortunately, the responses are kinda disheartening. Seems like the PC craze has been successful in killing the senses of humor everywhere.

    So sorry to read about your girlfriend trouble, Lucian. It is what it is though, so here's what I think you should do...

    Go to the nearest gas station and buy a quart of oil. Heavy duty works best for this. Next, pour the entire quart of oil over your head and pretend you're a dipstick.

    There you go. :p

      I did that the last time I delivered a joke badly, only I said, "Quack quack" after I poured the oil over my head and pretended I was a duck stuck in an oil slick.
