    You are sharing an Apple ID. You should each have your own ID and set up Family Sharing.

    Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support

     

    In the meantime go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at. On your phone, uncheck his phone number. On his phone, make sure that your phone number is unchecked.

     

    Also, on both phones make sure this is off. Settings>Phone>Calls on Other Devices>Off.
