A friend of mine told me he found a bunch of crap on his wife's cell. Mostly he found texts to some guy. They appeared innocuous, but he's wondering what she deleted. He also discovered she was sending PM's on FB to several old bfs. :shock:

Of course, I think much of this is his own doing. For example, he likes to go to the bar after work. I learned long ago that wives tire of that habit rather quickly. So, I go straight home. He still hasn't figured it out. But, that didn't stop me from asking, "Could be she's just sick of you stopping off at the Shamrock every night?"

My wife leaves her phone and computer unattended all the time. I must admit, it never even dawned on me to scope it out though. Actually, I just trust her. So, unlike my buddy, I feel secure in our relationship. He did obviously not.

How about you all? Would you scope out your partner's cell if it was staring you in the face?
 
No, I wouldn't. I trust my girlfriend, so I don't feel the need to go and do that.

I set up my wife's cell phone for her and know her password, but I don't snoop in there. I did tell her in no uncertain terms not to put stuff (pics or anything) about me on FB without me screening it first. That's common sense along with residual paranoia from going through security clearance screenings.

As far as extra-marital stuff, I trust her. She also seems to trust me.

Nope. I trust her implicitly.

No I don't snoop. I do all the security for the electronics so I cant say I don't see stuff, part of the gig really. That said I don't dig or worry as we have an understanding, if she steps out so do I, I leave the monogamy in her court. She wants it she gets it, she don't, well cool too. Comes with territory of keeping a lioness about, have to stay on my toes and game if I want her to stay.

I have never trusted "friends", who snooped around in other people's things. Someone that looked through my emails or messages I would break contact with.

No, I trust my wife completely. The minute that stops happening is when either marriage counseling needs to happen or separation/divorce. Life is way to short to be worrying about a partner, so if one has to do that then I don't feel that is really living.
 
My wife uses my facebook and my email so computer wise it would be hard not to see what each other is doing. As to phones Ive never had an inclanation to look at hers and I dont use a password on mine so I guess if she wanted to she could look though my phone without much difficulty. I also always leave the phone on the counter when home, I only have it with me when out.
:Shrug if you dont/cant trust the person you are with you should probably be asking yourself why you are with them

That’s the problem with snooping. You often get data without context. It a long way from texts and e mails to physical infidelity. I won’t pretend to know what is in her mind, but he should maybe look at his own behavoir and wonder if he is pushing her away.

Marriage can be difficult at times.

Yeah, this whole experience had me thinking. There was only one person I ever had a relationship with who I did not trust completely. And, that relationship ended rather quickly. Life really is too short for crap like that.

Something like that applies to me too. Cheat on me, and I'll use it as a license to start chasing women again....probably two minutes after getting a divorce and landing me a nice one bedroom luxury apartment with no headaches. Of course, I have no real desire to do that. So, I make damned sure I do not turn her off or drive her away. So, yeah. Staying on top of my game is paramount.

No excuse for cheating, if she is its on her alone.

No good can come from invading another's privacy.

Like someone said, she may only be communicating. Which, if I know women, tends to be the norm when someone at home is ignoring them.
