My husband and I ask each other that often mainly out of being noisy or because we want to hear some gossip someone shared or what not. When asked we just turn the screen to each other so one can see and there is no need to say anything or just say talking to my brother, dad, my friend E, my friend A, my boss etc

When you asked who he is texting is he getting mad but then show you or tell you who he is talking to or he gets mad but at the end never tells you who he is talking to? So I am wondering if his getting mad is just his “go to” style of his way to avoid answering or showing you his phone? Is he hiding the phone screen (turns it so you can’t accidentally see it) when texting? What if it’s not texting but like online gambling or something?

I think people are entitled to privacy. I don’t believe we need to disclose every little thing we are talking about. Like if I am texting to my girlfriend I don’t feel my husband must know what we are talking about. And he’d never ask beyond “how is she doing and say hi” But why not say who you are texting to? It’s not privacy violation
The other day he was willing to give me his phone for as long as I wanted it so I could see what he is doing. This is after the blowup about the Facebook group comment I made.

He has offered his phone to me practically every time.... he has shown me his phone even, and who he is texting.

I don't think he's cheating, and I don't think he's doing anything behind my back necessarily, but why blow up every time? I am not allowed to ask him a single question apparently.

I pretty much allow him his privacy. Only once in a while do I ask him, who are you texting with or what are you doing? He's constantly on his phone, so it's a natural question for me to sometimes ask. A lot of the time, I just let him do as he pleases and I leave him be.
