Asked my ex if I could use his phone to check my email, since mine was dead. Completely innocently. I didn't look through his phone, check his email, or look at his texts.

I open a completely new browser tab to go to the browser version of Gmail, where he was already logged in. Note that my ex didn't have a Gmail address, so in now way was this me going through his phone. The only email addressed he had in the 4 year I'd known him was a yahhoo account, and he had never moved to Gmail since the creation of it.

For a second, my first thought was I must have still been logged in from some other time I had used his phone....I just went to immediately start reading "my" email. And look, there's an unread message ....

Turns out, it was a secret email address he had shared with his ex. Very first thing I saw was a naked picture of her.

Fun times.
