DEAR DEIDRE: AFTER we’ve gone to bed, my girlfriend spends all night messing around on her phone underneath the duvet.
It’s making me suspicious that she’s just using me for somewhere to live.
We met six months ago and grew close so quickly that I asked her to move in with me after a month. I’m 36 and she’s 31.
We both wanted the same things from life, and a relationship, and she seemed refreshingly open and honest compared to my previous girlfriends.
I really thought she was the one, and that we might get married one day.
But since she’s lived with me, things have changed.

She’ll say she wants to go to bed early because she’s tired, then use her phone under the covers for hours.
I’m worried that she’s secretly busy messaging other guys.

DEIDRE SAYS: Her behaviour is suspicious, yes, but you have no evidence that she’s cheating.
Maybe she can’t sleep (granted, the late-night phone use won’t help) or she’s addicted to social media or even gambling sites.

You need to talk to her about this. Tell her you’re concerned, and ask her to be honest with you.
