freebird 0 #1 December 21, 2004 If your married do you think you should be able to share E-mail. What's to hide. Privacy in the form of relaxation is fine but keeping a person a secret is wrong. We share the real mail why not e-mail. What do you think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhillyKev 0 #3 December 21, 2004 Either you trust your spouse or you don't. If you don't, then that's the problem, not secret emails. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darius11 12 #4 December 21, 2004 Yes if there is nothing to hide. Problem is there usually is something to hide like normal conversation that you have with a friend you might not want you’re SO to see. Not because of cheating just because you speak to people freely. Like lets say I am saying how my SO is being a bitch today. I might not want her to see that, even if it is not a serious issue just that we are not getting along at the moment.I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not." - Kurt Cobain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see a problem with knowing each others password, it becomes a different issue when you use it all the time to read your S.O.'s emails to find out what he or she is up to, in that case there is a trust issue already....

tigra 0 #9 December 21, 2004 My SO can easily get into my email, I can get into his. I CHOOSE not to, though. If I have so little trust that I'm tempted to look at his emails, then our realtionship isn't worth much. And there is nothing stopping either one of us from setting up a private account with a different password, anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freebird 0 #10 December 21, 2004 A person can have as many e-mail identities as they want so even if you do know their password for their e-mail whose to say they don't have 10 more different ones? This is just a hypotheical question . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shotgun 1 #11 December 21, 2004 My husband is welcome to read my email - nothing secret in there. But we don't share an email address because we would end up killing each other. I don't think we could even share the same computer. We are both too particular about that kind of stuff... No secrecy involved, but sharing email would just get too confusing. (We even have separate mailboxes on our answering machine so that we don't have to deal with relaying messages to each other.) Of course, we both work from home, so all of our email/computer/phone stuff has a lot to do with work (which is another reason to keep it separate).

mailin 0 #12 December 21, 2004 I've got a half dozen email accounts but only use one or two religiously. He knows my ID and passwords. I frequently call my husband at work and ask him to check my email and see if 'such and such a person' emailed me. I know his stuff. Hell, I even have online access to his bank accounts JenArianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peregrinerose 0 #14 December 21, 2004 We have separate email accounts, but only for purposes of sorting it. I have one work related account, one personal. He has one personal. I don't care if he reads mine, he doesn't care if I read his. Neither of us has anything to hide from the other.

flyangel2 2 #17 December 21, 2004 QuoteMy husband does know my password . But do you know his? I agree, no problem with having separate e-mail accounts.

PhreeZone 20 #18 December 21, 2004 No one better adjust the settings on my PC. Its taken me 2.5 years to get the background I like, the icons in the right order and the dual monitor colors adjusted just the way I want them. Touch them and you will see me toss you out of the house. There are very few things that would ever have me kick my GF out of the house when shes here... but thats one of them Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyingferret 0 #20 December 21, 2004 Yep, spot on point. A year ago, I would have seen it differently. But I know from practice it is a fruitless pursuit. Don't go looking for anything, you will create ghosts, and never feel like you answered the last question. My realization was that if you love an trust someone...you trust what they do for whatever reasons they had. If you don't then why are you with them. On the flipside, if a SO got very protective preemptively about keeping something private, I wonder a bit, and ask some questions of myself and them. But that instance should not be the solitary basis. Often you ruin even small sweet surprises by looking too close. Love is magic, don't try to explain it or examine it, just feel it, believe in it, and never doubt or forsake it.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI.

skydiver30960 0 #22 December 22, 2004 We have separate email accounts, but we each know the other's password. I don't log onto hers, and as far as I know she doesn't log onto mine. It's kinda like how one of us leaves the bathroom while the other pees. We're close enough that we are comfortable sharing all our secrets, but at the same time we're ALSO close enough that we don't NEED to know each other's secrets. Make sense?
