Teacher’s Phone Privacy vs. Boyfriend’s Trust Issues
Our teacher girlfriend is in a pickle! Her boyfriend wants full access to her phone as a ‘trust gesture’, but there’s a catch – her work emails are linked to it and protected by privacy laws.

Let’s see what the internet has to say about this spicy situation! ️
