Iphone 4 vs iphone 4s imessage?

Okay so I have an iphone 4, and my friend has an iphone 4s. He says that he can read when i read his messages, when they are delivered, and when they are typing. I can only see when they are delivered and when he is typing. Is there any reason why i'm not able to see when he reads my messages?

You have the option to turn that off in your settings.

Most likely he can read your messages because you have "Send Read Receipts" on. If you want to turn this off, go to Settings - Messages - and turn "Send Read Receipts" off.
