Would you look at her FB, Twitter, email etc. if a chance presented itself?

They were goin on about this on the radio at work the other day so I thought Id pop the question to OcUk...

Picture this...

You come home on a Friday after work happy that its the weekend.

The significant other in your life is in the shower. So you throw off your jacket, kick off the work-shoes, crash-dive onto the couch and search for the TV remote...

...and there on the coffee table is her laptop with the screen open.

You move a little closer.....Firefox is running. Multiple tabs. The active page is Facebook...still logged in. Her FB. You can see 5 private messages waiting. The next tab header shows she has some incoming tweets and the third tab shows her Yahoo email with 10 unread messages.

She's still upstairs enjoyin' her shower..you can hear her singing...

Would you?... ....or would you just kick back, ignore the laptop and chuck on the Family Guy DVD? :D

For happy couples with huge trust I see this as a non-issue - but Im just curious to hear the thoughts of the OcUk hive mind anyway :o

No.

If she did it to me, I'd be upset about it. She may be my other half, but I see that on the same level as reading my email.

I have nothing to hide, and neither does she but the trust between us means that there's no need to read it. Even if trust doesn't come into it, it's just plain rude to read someone else's stuff. Your other half or otherwise.
 
I'd maybe click onto her PMs on FB just to be nosey :D. I wouldn't bother reading emails/tweets etc though
 
Neither of us bother locking/hiding our FB or mail accounts - we share the same computer and our emails are all combined in one thunderbird instance. Same with FB, the wife regularly logs into my accounts to send herself Corn or Bark or Weasels or something for some game or other.
 
If the email tab was open I would probably look at the screen purely because it is bright and would catch my eye, facebook i would have no interest in, but twitter would surprise me as I'm fairly certain she doesn't have twitter.

Would never intentionally look at it though as my other half has trust issues from a previous relationship so i avoid adding fuel to the fire where possible
 
I'd more than likely Frape her tbh lol. But then I could access her FB at any time, I'm at work all day and she works evenings so she could check mine also at any time (password is saved)

I know she checks me, she admits to it but I'm trusting and secure. Every single relationship before this I wasn't like that and why I don't mind her checking on me, it puts her mind at rest and that's good enough for me.

If she started checking forums I went on I'd go ballistic mind, those are my escape time.

(so if you are looking Kerry, **** off!)

:D
 
A mate of mine caught his now ex out via Facebook. She was a deeply insecure and suspicious person, the type to get really, really jealous and possessive, and as my mate had a lot of female friends, she demanded the password to his Facebook. He, stupidly in my opinion, agreed but only the condition that she gave him her's. A year or so later, while bored at work he decides to log in for once, and finds a stream of messages between her and a recently married father she works with detailing what they want to do to each other, swapping various pics of body parts, arranging to meet up etc. Needless to say, he confronted her with the evidence when he got home, and ended it.

What still amazes me though is that she still tries to spin it all into her somehow being the victim, the wronged party in all of this. Wonders never cease....:rolleyes:

I remember once suspecting an ex of shenannigans. I knew the truth would be in her hotmail account so in a moment of weakness I answered her secret question to allow me to gain access... I was literally just one click away from the inbox... But then I aborted and came to my senses.

That kind of invasion of privacy is beyond low.
