Am I over-reacting.

So from the other side of the coin, why doesn't he trust you? Has he a reason not to trust you? We're only getting one side of a very one sided story thus far.....

True, but the OP doesn't mention anything about her partner going through her phone or her emails etc, or infact anything other than her posts on here. Of course, there could be reason why the OP's OH feels he has to check up on her, but I really don't think that this is the case here.

It comes across to me, that the OP's boyfriend, by quoting her posts back in a mocking voice, is trying to make her feel stupid, feel small, and making her feel like she is doing something wrong. He is gradually undermining her confidence, to me it seems like a control thing....:(

So if he's only taking the mickey out of her posts on here maybe its meant as a bit of fun? If he was a proper mental he'd be snooping everywhere. More to this story than we are being told I fear.

You might want to google 'gaslighting'.

Privacy? This is a public forum. Most people seem to forget this when blathering their personal details to all and sundry.

He sounds like a nasty creep to me. Trying to undermine you for his own reasons - possibly to control you. Beware.

He sounds like Jekyll and Hyde. Sarcastic to you in private and only polite in front of other people. That alone, not treating you consistently with respect would worry me. His behaviour is frankly mistrustful, especially in your own home. Tell him he needs to stop the intrusion into your private life immediately before he becomes totally controlling as your full time stalker. I wouldn't dream of intruding into my husband's private space, nor he into mine.
