^^Well see what had happened was. I revealed the snoopiness myself in an attempted "aha" moment--not a jealous one, but a "got you all in check" one
--and..............................um. Made an a** out of myself
He checked his work email on my phone. He doesn't have a personal email (which is so odd to me) so, in the event that he does need to do something like reserve a hotel room or something like that, he does send confirmations to his work email, but in general he doesn't like to send personal messages because it would be public record and he doesn't want it to be ratchet. He has told me this because we have silly correspondence and I will send whatever on my work email
so he said this way back when just to let me know. I still might forward a news story or something, but I don't chat personally on there because he's asked me not too (and I get it; makes perfect sense).
Well when he checked the email on my phone, he didn't X out the window or logout
So I glanced at it
and I recognized the name of a girl who I know of (but don't personally know) from my undergrad days as a party girl. Worked at Hooters. Would be at all the parties. Worked at a nightclub as a champagne girl up until recently. I told myself not to even glance at his email but I did and when I saw her name for a second my heart dropped and I was like "that's why you don't look at it." But I read the subject line--it was an invite to some event--and I let it go. It still was like "oh
" because he doesn't party--the kind of parties I remember her from--and I pretty much thought I knew his schedule and habits so I was wondering how they would even have each other's email but I was like whatever. As I've mentioned in here before, he used to get around
and she did too and he tells me about people from the past contacting him--it's why I trust him--while leaving names out, so it's not that shocking anyway.
Well cut to today
We have been talking about going on another vacation and I had told him about Groupon travel deals so I sent him the link to his work email. Now, remember, I honor his request to not send random emails, but this was just a link and I know he gets confirmations to his work email anyway. And if he's getting party invite emails from Ms. Bottle Service, I wish a negro would ask me not to email him. In retrospect, I guess it was a challenge.
Anyway, as expected, when he gets to his phone (he doesn't carry it with him in the mornings) he tells me he got a raise (yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay) and then says "Don't send emails to my work." So my arse said *facepalm* Congrats! (he JUST got promoted and a raise. He is tearing **** up. I love it) Then I said "I want to say something smart about your email but I won't
Then I immediately
sent "Tell ______ _______ not to email you at work." He sent back "who is that?" I said hmmph.
I went to go to the girl's FB page because I know we used to be FB friends. I guess she's not on FB anymore so I googled her.(Now this wasn't a mad, desperate search, I'm just aimlessly on websites at work anyway and was going to pull up her picture, maybe see what event she was talking about. I remember her being quite attractive. Anyway) When I googled her, her Linked In came up and she works at the same place he does, just in a different department. And as I recall the subject line, it was just like a Save the Date for some event, so it was probably a mass work email.
Now I look all insecure and snoopy and crazy and dumb and I glossed right over that Congrats, honey. In my defense, don't send me no text talking about "don't send me emails." Negro, that's inflammatory. AmIright or amirite?
Neither
