Was it wrong to delete and block my boyfriend’s ex from his Facebook?

He let me use his phone and I went on his Facebook to block her. Is this wrong?
How would you feel if he did the same thing to you???

You’re so lucky you’re in England. That’s all I’m going to say. I don’t usually argue with people, I use my hands. But since I can’t do that with you, this convo is pointless. I just hope you talk this same shit to your husband. Maybe you should woman up and fix things with him, before you give others advice. I can see why he doesn’t want you though.

You’re only talking shit because you’re miles and miles away, but trust me, I can back it up. If I could, I would fly out to you and show you. You really don’t want to mess with me. If you’ve tried everything, then why are you still married??? Why don’t you woman up and end things???

Probably yeah, you invaded his privacy without his knowledge...

Yes. Very immature and insecure people do that. If you feel threatened by her then you need to look at yourself first. And that’s besides the fact that you Invaded his privacy. JMO
Jokes aside, if a new girlfriend did that to me I’d be out of there fast, relationship over. It’d be a big red flag, invasion of privacy and scarily insecure of you to be honest
SW-User
yes. it’s not the same as if he had done it himself. lots of people have exes on their friends list. now you look jealous.
Yes that is wrong.

Yes. If he has issues with her, he can block her. If he wants to keep her in his life you have a decision to make for yourself whether you are okay with that. If not, time to go. If so, let it go. You shouldn't be forcing your decisions on him. If it's that you don't trust him to keep her on there, then you probably wouldn't continue the relationship at all.
StrangeDisaster · 31-35, F
They don’t have any issues, they don’t even talk or anything. It’s just that when we started dating he still had feelings for her and I think having her there might cause problems. @ViciDraco

This is a gross invasion of his privacy, and a decision HE needs to make, not you. You need to grow up.
SW-User
@Northwest she did grow up. she told him.
StrangeDisaster · 31-35, F
You’re right, I do. I apologized deeply for it. It was wrong. @Northwest
Dwari · M
How would you react if he did the same with you?
SW-User
@StrangeDisaster awesome, girl!
go forth and do the right thing with confidence. maybe he’ll leave her blocked.
StrangeDisaster · 31-35, F
He’s not really mad, but he doesn’t like that I altered his social media without his permission. He’s never letting me touch his phone again, and he’s considering adding her back. So now I need reevaluate this whole relationship. Thanks so much for your input. @SW-User
SW-User
@StrangeDisaster you’re welcome. you did the right thing, and i know it was hard. i sincerely hope you two can work it out, but you’re right… you need to reevaluate. it’s not just about him feeling secure in this relationship, it’s about your peace of mind as well. maybe he just needs a little time to process, and i think it’s clear you need someone who wants to set firm boundaries with exes as a way of defining your exclusiveness. at least you don’t have to live in fear of him finding out in any other way now. proud of you.

Probably. But why ask after the fact. It's done.

I read something online about people having their exes on fb and how they deleted them to move on with their lives. I thought that it would’ve been a good idea to eliminate the possibility of there being contact in the future. When we started dating he wasn’t over her, but he had this out of sight, out of mind attitude so I want to make sure she’s out of sight, permanently.
@StrangeDisaster sensible.

Understandable. It’s normal to feel that way your trying to look out for him and your relationship. You are maybe scared of her capable actions that might ruin your relationship so your just trying to guard what’s yours in my opinion that’s how I see it.
SW-User
Yeah. I get your pain but it was supposed to be his choice to do it at the end of the day.
StrangeDisaster · 31-35, F
How do I fix it? Do I tell him and then let him decide? @SW-User
SW-User
@StrangeDisaster The best thing you can do is look to yourself. This jealousy you feel won't go away because of a deleted friend. Do what you want but i'd confess and tell him that I won't behave like this again.
SW-User
@StrangeDisaster i agree. you should confess. it’s an opportunity to show that you can be vulnerable and honest.
MsMontgomery · 51-55, F
My husband got mad bc I friended his ex on his FB. LOL
Id be flattered if i was him
SW-User
Yes. It shows you don't trust him.
Yes, dishonest. And if you don’t think you can trust him, why are you with him ?
StrangeDisaster · 31-35, F
Yeah I understand that I was wrong. It’s not that he gave me a reason not to trust him, I just don’t trust anyone at all. It’s not fair to him and I know I need to work on that. @bijouxbroussard
If he let you use his fb and knew you were going to do it, then so be it. My question is, why didn't he do it to begin with?
StrangeDisaster · 31-35, F
He didn’t feel like he needed to since they don’t really talk, and he doesn’t like deleting people. @TallMtnMedic
Pretty sure it’s illegal
StrangeDisaster · 31-35, F
Damn...@Helpinghands
