I spoilered a long ass story about how I screwed up my relationship with a great girl.
Been trying to respond to this since Tuesday but kept getting buried at work.
Let"s start with you... why in the name of Khorne were you storing photographs of naked chicks in your phone? Was it for bragging rights with your buddies? Spank material? Something you could one day hold over a girl in case she didn"t appreciate you enough? It really should go without saying, but DO NOT fucking store pictures of naked chicks on your phone, even if they"re of your wife or SO. You are just begging for the wrong kind of trouble. If you have to keep a digital record of your past escapades, store them in a place where they can"t be easily accessed... think safe deposit box and you"re on the right path.
Now for her. Unless you two had an "open-phone" policy with one another, she obviously never should have been snooping through your phone. While I don"t agree with a previous poster that she was "crazy" for going through your phone, she certainly crossed the line going through your private stash of amateur shots (which, if I am not mistaken, Man Law dictates you now post for our review and comments).
I do agree with whoever said she"s banging her ex. She may have been on the fence before she went through your phone, but it"s almost guaranteed she"s done so since. I, personally, never would have been okay with her "getting back in touch" with her ex (and the late-night chat should have been setting off alarm klaxons). What the hell are they going to talk about? The lovely covered bridges in Las Vegas? Your spider sense should tingle if an ex suddenly materializes, especially if it happens around a negative event.
Finally, you pretty much invalidated your moral high ground by snooping through her phone. I probably don"t need to elaborate here, so I"ll leave it at that.
Conclusion: This relationship is doomed, and if you haven"t already told her to piss off, delete her number and never speak to her again. I have no idea how old the two of you are. If you included your ages in your post, I must have skimmed over it and it didn"t stick. You two sound, however, somewhat young (by young I mean early to mid-twenties) and more than a little immature. You guys destroyed each other"s trust, she"s probably gotten back together with her ex, and she seems to have inherited some of that "abusiveness" she complained of in her ex (re: the cussing and yelling).
The good news is you"re going to learn from this experience and benefit from it.
Oh, and as far as her complaint that you don"t show affection, I"m not buying it. Unless you went from rapid-fire PDAs when you first met to a cold-hearted bastard, I don"t see you having ever been overly affectionate with her. I could be way off, but I suspect she was fishing for reasons to be upset with you to justify her communicating with her ex. So if she was interested in getting back together with you, she"d probably demand that you be this affectionate little lap dog, which is both insulting to you and destined to breed resentment from the word go.
I"m personally interested in hearing what you ended up doing, so don"t leave us hanging.
