So I have come to a conclusion that some men use snapchat to exchange nudes with the ladies they will be talking to. And because yourself will not be having snapchat they will think that you will not catch them. But i think you just need to ask him about it though
Silenced messages on snap is immediate flag. Unfortunately, snap messages disappear after 24 hours so you won’t see what’s been said but if he shows you his phone, I’d check his chat history anyway. I’d also check his deleted text folder if he has an iPhone. But definitely talk to him about what’s going on and how you’re feeling.
Look I’m going to be real with you, a lot of people use Snapchat for sending nudes of themselves to others and receiving nudes. Of course some people don’t use it for that, but personally as an adult I do not use it as I understand most intentions behind it. People use it for that because the photos they send can be on a timer or they may be deleted right after you exit the chat, or after 24hrs they may delete depending on the settings and that’s what makes it easy for people to get away with it because no evidence at all unless screenshots. That’s why a lot of teens when I was a teen especially used to use it. Although I did not for those intentions, my friends did. There is also a thing called quick add and random people can add you from there and you can add others from there. So if you don’t recognise the girls name that could be why. It’s really strange he has her messages silenced and I would confront him about it and ask him to show you. He might have saved some chats
As you can save them by clicking on them. Also there is a private tab where you can save snaps but it’s locked behind a password. I’d ask him to show you that too if he has that set up as I mean it’s ridiculous to keep anything in there unless you need it hidden. If people don’t care about the images on their Snapchat then they wouldn’t hide it. But that is another function, so on the basis that you might go on his phone he probably knows you won’t see any snapchats from this girl and if you did go on Snapchat and find something he could be hiding more. Always confront it though as keeping it to yourself will make you question it forever, trust me. Edit: the flame icon means they’ve been sending photos to each other daily. The flame icon goes away once you stop sending a person photos. It’s called a Snapstreak
i think the fire emoji means that they had a streak going, but i definitely would find that weird because her messages were silenced.
