I need advice

Deala

So my boyfriend and I have been together for a little over a year and we’ve never had a cheating problem like I trusted him completely and never in a million years would have thought he would cheat on me... but today while at the gym a old friend of mine who is someone whose word I would not trust at all❗️ she tells me that my boyfriend texted this girls whose sorta my friend she’s really sweet and I don’t see why she would make this up anyway she told me that my boyfriend said that she was beautiful and that he was trying to have sex with her 😑 they said this happened a week ago so I asked for proof and no one had any she said she deleted the messages so I confronted my boyfriend about and I asked Him when’s the last time he’s texted that girl and he said last week and I asked him why he texted her and his response was he wanted to see why she blocked him on sc cause it bothered him he hates when people does that so I asked for proof and to send ss and he says he deleted them because he knows I go through his phone and doesn’t want me to go get upset over something so small I just thought that was so suspect and dumb so I just told him I wanted a break because I honestly don’t know what to do no one has proof and I’ve never been in this situation before it hurts this is literally my first love and my first serious relationship I love him so much I just can’t believe this but I also don’t wanna be out here looking dumb so Ig I’m for advice has anyone been in this situation before? What should I do ? And I’m sorry if this is supper long or if I didn’t explain it correctly
