While public transport is a wonderful thing, truly, the fact remains that you never know who you're going to find yourself sitting next to.
It's a lesson one man learnt the hard way when a fellow passenger on a flight branded him a cheater after reading his texts.
A guy on TikTok, who goes by the handle @berryd_treasure, was travelling recently when he had a bizarre encounter with someone sitting next to him.

In a video posted to his channel, he explained that he had just got on the plane and a woman - a complete stranger - had called him out for apparently cheating on his partner.
He told his followers that she had been reading a couple of his texts he had sent prior to taking off, where he had told the recipients he loved them.
Understandably taken aback by the accusation, @berryd_treasure decided to send a video directly to his wife, but via TikTok, to explain what happened.

In the clip, he says: "This video is for my wife, figured I'd tell her on here so that everybody knows I don't have anything to hide.
"When I boarded my plane today, I sat in my seat, a lady sat next to me, I sent you a text that says I'm on the plane I love you, and then, I went right from texting you to texting another girl said, 'Hey, I'm on my plane. I love you', to which lady next to me said that I should be ashamed of myself for telling my wife who is stored as 'Beautiful' in my phone that I boarded the plane and I loved her.
"And then I pulled up another girl and my phone and said basically the same thing.
"And I had TikTok up before this. So she said she's got my TikTok handle and she's gonna put it out there. So I just wanted to tell you before she does.

"So if you could go down to the end of the hall and tell our daughter that I will no longer be texting her from the plane that I love her, because I can only love one girl at a time, that would be great."
The guy then rounded off his video with a message for the nosey parker.
Adding: "To the lady sitting next to me on the plane, you should probably learn to mind your own business. And I really hope that you see this since you felt it was important to tell me that you knew my TikTok handle. Have a nice day."

Since the video was posted, it's been viewed over 7.7 million times, with people backing the lad's sassy response.
Commenting on the video, one user said: "The fact that she was reading a complete strangers texts."
Another asked: "Who looks that close at what is on a stranger's phone?"
While someone else put: "And that’s why I have a privacy screen on my phone."
