Do you know your spouses email passwords?

Hubby might not know mine but I keep my passwords saved on my computer. All he has to do is open the browser and log onto a page. As for him he is the one password for everything type....which I tell him is not very good.

Same here all saved or on my windows post its on desktop. Heck my oldest daughter knows what my passwords are ha ha. I know my hubs but don't have a reason to get into his stuff. Besides, I would want him to have access to my stuff in case of emergency.

As far as work e-mails and stuff...that's freakin NUTS. To each their own I guess but I for sure will not be in a relationship where he can't trust me or I can't trust.

Of course asking for access to a spouses work emails is nuts, or a sign that someone has done something to warrant such suspicion.

It seems like a lot of people do. I have my fiance's email password (which is his work becase that is the only on he has). Its useful for memberships etc that are associated with his email like netflix, petmeds, online grocery orders. I've given him mine, but I doubt he remembers it. I also know his facebook info becase he had me create it for him. haha.

I have my SO's email password, because he asks me to check his email when he's out on the road. He doesn't have mine, but if he ever asked for it, I'd give it to him. :shrug:

I know my hubby's because he is not very computer literate. So I basically set up anything for him requiring user names, passwords etc. He chooses it and I set it up and makes notes for him for future reference.

I don't have a SO but if I ever do again the answer is a big ol HELL NO! Made that mistake once with an overpossesive a-hole and I can't tell you how many times old arse PMs or email convos that I'd had with my friends came up in arguements. :banghead:
:yay:
When I was married, I did not know her passwords, and she did not know mine, kind of like having separate bank accounts, which we also had.

And I'll tell you, when the marriage went south, she accused me of stalking. I was SO glad I didn't have access to her stuff so she couldn't use that against me.
Exactly!

Sure, why not? Nothing to hide. I know his and he knows mine.


I don't think it's about having anything to hide. At this point in my life, if I were to get married or cohabit with someone, I'm not going to let them have access & free reign to every single part of my business and certainly not every single financial & other type of account I have online. Especially if he were demanding & snitty about it. :fatalattraction:

But then again, if that were the type of person he was - he'd never get as far as cohabitation and/or marriage anyway. :shrug:

NOR would I want access to his.

I know lots of people who do know each others or who keep themselves logged in on their computers. And it seems like a lot of people here do as well. I think it usually happens because one or the other needs their SO to get into an account to do something for them or retrieve some info while they are not able to get to a computer. And then if you've got nothing to hide, whats the big deal if they always have it. I did ruin a surprise for myself once though by getting on his email. :frown:

My SO doesn't know how to do anything on the computer except play solitaire. He wouldn't know how to get into my emails even if he had the passwords.

Women in particular are pretty bad about denial. They know in their heart that their smoochy boy is playing around, but instead of just saying, "You know what? This isn't working for me," they feel the need to snoop and get absolute proof for whatever reason.

If you suspect your loved one of dishonesty, you should terminate immediately - or at least back off a bit and re-evaluate.
  • You're either right, and should call it a day; OR
  • You're wrong and somewhat mental, and shouldn't be in a relationship in the first place.

From what I'm reading it seems like a lot of people share without using them for snooping. Unless they are lying :whistle:

That is how it pretty much works out at our house. Everything will still be logged on from the last time. Not that it matters though, we both use the same passwords for everything anyway.<o:p></o:p>
