jeanne_girl Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 A phone password is just like an email password. Phones are personal items. Every person should have (and mind) their own. If he wants to give out his password, it's his own thing. You're not entitled to have it just because you're his girlfriend. If you are angry about the fact that he hasn't shared the password with you, it's probably because you don't trust him. What are you expecting to find? Would you be OK with ONLY having the password, or would you go on and try it out?
Chocolat Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Would you be OK with ONLY having the password, or would you go on and try it out? She answered that in her OP: Not that I would snoop, well maybe, but I jus don't think it should be this big secret. IMO, "well maybe" = Hell Yes!
Phantom888 Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 At what point should you expect to have your boyfriend's phone password? I have been with my fiancee for a year. I don't have password set on my iphone. She has hers set, but only because it's a company phone and it's company policy (and I know her password from day 1). We have nothing to hide, so we don't care about passwords. Yet we have never snooped in each other's phones. 1

soccerrprp Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I have nothing to hide or important enough to have a password. My gf doesn't have one on her phone and I've been on her phone per her approval. No need to have one otherwise. Why?
Michelle ma Belle Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Well, at least OP admits she would "maybe" snoop instead of insisting that she just wants to know it just because. I've snooped through previous partners' stuff before, guilty as charged, and you know what? EVERY time I did it I found stuff I didn't like: flirting with other girls, talking to exes in a more than friendly way, one guy was on a dating site the whole time we had been together, conversations with their friends saying mean things about me, etc. I KNOW it's not right and now I just go with my gut - if you ever have the urge to snoop it means deep down you don't trust your partner. I concur. If you trust your man and he gives you no reason to think he's being unfaithful then there is no need to go snooping and create problems where there aren't any. Time to find another hobby 1
jeanne_girl Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 She answered that in her OP: IMO, "well maybe" = Hell Yes! My point was where does it end. It's not about the password at all, but her being able to snoop.
DArtagnan2 Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I dont understand why people need a password to a cell phone unless maybe they have nudes on the phone, im still a oldie in a phone is a phone I never had a password on my phone until I changed careers (Army), and began to travel quite a bit for training. I was in the Airport in Germany having a coffee and croissant before my flight home and after I got to the gate, I realized I left my phone at the table. I ran back and noticed the table was cleared. I think that was the first time I was ever worried about information that was on my phone. I had pass-worded it since. Not to mention, we are required to secure it.
organizedchaos Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 At what point should you expect to have your boyfriend's phone password? I have been dating mine for nearly a year now and he hasn't offered. Which clearly I think he should have. When we are driving or something and I ask for his phone to use the gps or something, he always puts the password then hands it to me. Not that I would snoop, well maybe, but I jus don't think it should be this big secret. I don't think he is cheating or anything, because we are always together and we hangout with each other's family all the time. But honestly, I don't think it I would be this curious if I had always had the password. Should I ask for it? It this normal? Actually, Never mind about normal. Don't judge me. Too late, you've been judged. Never. It is neither your right or expectation to have your bf's password.
organizedchaos Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I dont understand why people need a password to a cell phone unless maybe they have nudes on the phone, im still a oldie in a phone is a phone My friend has an extream unhealthy attachment to her phone a few weeks ago she flipped when I tried to use it to call her bf to come pick her up when she was in trouble, I know for a fact my friend has a pw so she's able to talk and flirt with other men to get rides or borrow money all the while living with her current bf of 4 years its disgraceful. My friend won't even let me touch her cell when we had an emergency if your bf is this attached id say hes got something to hide. Well, some of us use apps from our bank to pay bills, make deposits, check our account, do money transfers. No password opens that all up if you lose your phone. I don't want someone having access to all of my emails which may contain sensitive information. I don't want someone being able to send emails or texts to random people appearing to come from me. I don't want someone to have access to my list of contacts. ALL of which could be accessed without a password if you lose your phone. 2
Gottabestrong Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 At what point should you expect to have your boyfriend's phone password? Never? I think phones, emails, facebook pages, etc. are private and not to be shared even with a significant other.
Mrin Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I know it has been said many times already but ya, she has no right or expectation to get it. Nor would I have of her. OP really needs a reset of expectations here.
