My Iphone caused a break up

Don't get me wrong that if she did go snooping and not the iPhone going straight to the conversation when unlocking, she deserves blame. But, I will always put more blame on the person who treats their SO as crap like the OP did.
I won't. Snooping through someone's phone is a serious breach of trust and a dealbreaker. Sorry- equal blame.
By what the title says, I thought this would have been about the iPhone autocorrecting something...
Go look in the mirror and say," Bad Phone, bad bad phone! this is all your fault!" She wouldn't look through your phone if you weren't hiding something maybe. The phone has no morals, but you might. So maybe you can track her down, and explain things to her, or not.
Exactly.
You must be in a relationship with Prince Charming - congratulations! I bet your boyfriends serve you breakfast in bed...
You shouldn't talk about anyone — significant other or otherwise — behind their back in a way you wouldn't talk to them face to face. If someone you're with isn't comfortable with something personal being discussed publicly than the subject needs to be broached privately. An inability to speak frankly about something like sex might be an indication of broader reaching jealousy issues or personal baggage, or merely a personal choice that needs respecting.
That said, your privacy is one of your most fundamental rights, and you should neither give it away lightly nor tolerate it's infringement or encroachment by any party.
From the information available here it does look like the OP probably said something stupid and decidedly masculine — and I'd love to lament about the trashy state of MTV raised young men — but his right to privacy trumps any adolescent misstep.

I wouldn't say she's crazy just because she looked at your phone... As a girl who's had a couple BAD relationships I wouldn't say it would never cross my mind. What's the problem if you have nothing to hide?
If what she saw was misconstrued by her then the fact she blew up about it probably shows there was no trust in you from her point of view anyway so it's probably a good thing it happened...

My thoughts exactly. If you invade someone's privacy, you often get what you deserve.
So if I had suspicions of my girlfriend cheating on me, and looked at her phone to see if my suspicions were correct and it turned out to be true, I deserved to be cheated on?
He has, yes.
Ignore him girls. He obviously has a stick up his ass about something.

No- you deserve to lose your girlfriend.
If someone did that to me, they'd lose me in a split second- no questions asked.

Yes, agreement. A relationship where respect was lacking on both sides.
But, of course, already de-stoned, I trust?
If you never would have said that in the first place... This never would have happened
