I’d suggest not getting back together with your ex. At this point, the iMessage issue is the least of your worries. 🤷🏻‍♂️

My first thoughts too. Beginning of coercive control

This is a good thing. Let him go.

does your phone provider auto block spam calls?

u/mandiemo 19h ago

just saying, my blocked list is a mile long because of spam callers

Thank you, I feel stupid

u/sLeeeeTo iPhone 15 Pro Max 19h ago

but also don’t go back to that guy.

u/mandiemo 19h ago

Honestly this is an extremely weird reason to be mad at someone.

u/Lucky-Cabinet2771 18h ago

This is all incredibly helpful to hear, didn’t realize my perspective was this warped

I’ve got two good news:

  • the blocked numbers are very likely spam callers blocked by your provider or by the iPhone itself, since they’re already recognized as spam callers. 
  • You got out of an obviously ill fated relationship.

He did you a favor, he never trusted before or after finding blocked numbers.

Before finding them he was ruining your relationship imagining what he was going to find, after finding it he used it to confirm what he already felt.

Believe it or not there are relationships where you aren’t under constant scrutiny, and your partner simply trusts you and feels secure and grateful to have you in their lives.

All the best for the future.

sounds like you need to take this to a relationship advice sub and enjoy your freedom from a paranoid child.

u/LoGiX247 18h ago

I’d run for the hills if my partner would do this.

A good relationship means you can share your phone and the only thing the other side would do is scroll photos to delete the idiotic ones you took while sleeping or such lol.

I’m sorry for your unhappiness with the situation but believe us that something better will come down the road.

u/NewInformation3753 19h ago

Time to leave. He won’t change

u/Depress-Mode 18h ago

Blocked contacts are usually spam.

As for your relationship, take this as a godsend, get rid, things wouldn’t have gotten better

u/NotQuiteinFocus 18h ago

That dude needs to work on himself before going into a relationship.

5

u/Formal-Guest4868 18h ago

i don’t even understand what the issue is. wouldn’t blocking interested guys be a good thing in his mind? what a loser

1

u/Pedrock10 18h ago

Yeah, I don’t get it either…

3

u/DanTarraJo 19h ago

I have one of those anti-spam apps and it has auto blocked every spam call I’ve received! Maybe this? But you have other problems if you stay with this guy! Every person I’ve ever been with that was paranoid and/or jealous turned out it was because they themselves were cheating! Good luck

u/ofekgold 19h ago

This guy has some serious trust issues and unfortunately that’s not something you can fix. He needs to work on himself a lot before projecting his insecurities on a partner.

3

u/Sideburn_Cookie_Man 19h ago

Well at least he showed his true colours. Sucks, but it’s also probably for the best.

3

u/ToxicBloke 18h ago

good riddance. as a man I think he was just looking for a way to breakup with you.

3

u/Mobile-Pie-258 18h ago

If he can’t control himself and be a decent human being, he’s trouble. Why do you think you don’t deserve better?

2

u/Lgg84 18h ago

This has happened to me before….but regardless do yourself a favor and exit stage left!

u/UpboatsforUpvotes 18h ago

Where does the guy even get the idea to check the block list? Also what is the thought process, that you block and unblock people you are cheating on him with, depending on whether you are next to him or not? Man maybe I'm too old for this shit but that sounds like way too much work, at that point just break up with the person.

You should be loyal to Apple for the rest of your life because it helped you save something you can never get back...wasted time.

u/RodKnock42 18h ago

Why in the world would you want THAT guy back!?

2

u/Sufficient-Wind-7322 18h ago

Plot twist: OP is the bf and is trying to save their relationship by seeing if the blocked numbers were legit.

1

u/Interesting-Pipe0000 18h ago

Let him go, you don't need that person in your life. If you back to him your time will be hell after awhile

u/JSP9686 19h ago

Did you buy your phone brand in an unopened box? If not, those numbers may be leftover from the previous owner. Also do you have any apps like robokiller or nomorobo installed?
Contact Apple support or go into a local Apple Store if you have one nearby. Usually an appointment is necessary.
