My password is…
Some couples share everything; they see transparency as the key to a good relationship. Trust is the sea in which the relationship sets its sail, and without trust there is no way to keep a relationship afloat. Would you give your partner the password to your phone and social media?
Kirsha, 24:
I have nothing to hide so he can get full access to everything.
Shernette, 37:
I don’t have a problem with him having my password but at what point do I have anything for myself? At what point does sharing become too much?
Petagay, 34:
I will give him some amount of freedom to go through my things, but not everything. He doesn’t have to know everything. I have nothing to hide, but I just think everything has a limit.
Charles, 37:
I would if I could, but sometimes when you share your password it’s as if you just hired a private detective to hover over your every move.
Judith, 42:
If I was to give out my password it would be a one-time thing because I can’t handle the 20-question approach of ‘who is that in the picture with you in 2010’, or ‘why do you still have up a picture of your ex?’ That’s just way too much for me.
Sheldon, 28:
I gave my girl my password one day to set up her iPad and it was the biggest mistake I ever made. I had to change my password. She set up my e-mail on her phone and knew every time I got an e-mail. She lived in my e-mail. And the irony is, she never gave me access to hers.
Curtis, 32:
I would give her my password if she gave me hers. That’s the only way it would work.
Dave, 30:
Yes, I would give it to her. What is in a password? They were made to be changed.
Sydia, 32:
I have done that before. It helps to build trust in a relationship and foster and environment for open communication.
Dean, 27:
No, I wouldn’t. I have too much going on that needs to be kept for my eyes only. But I have no problem giving her access to any old accounts that I might not be using.
