We sit with a listener’s gut-punch moment—finding old texts where her boyfriend admits he still isn’t over his ex—and chart a smarter way forward that doesn’t torch trust or self-respect. Instead of racing into a confrontation built on a privacy breach, we talk about slowing the timeline, watching for patterns, and letting people be who they are. If he’s truly present, the daily signals will show it; if he’s not, stepp...
