Does your significant other know your email passwords?

How long were you dating or married before you exchanged passwords if you did?

Does your significant other know your email passwords?
I have been married for 6 months, and we have each others passwords and codes to everything. What's mine is his and what's his is mine. I do know many people who have everything separate. I think b/c a lot of people are getting together later in life or in their 30's they are set in their ways and do not want to completely lose themselves. I think that when you make a commitment such as marriage, you should be 2 people working towards 1 goal, not 2 people working against each other. Not that you are working against each other if you don't have each others passwords and stuff, but I never check anything of my husbands b/c he gave me them to check. I think that when it's not shared is when people are suspicious. I guarantee you that if I didn't have his passwords, etc that I would then want to check his stuff all the time. I think it's a trust issue and maybe some ppl think that if my significant other knows everything about me they won't want me.
Reply:I have his because of trust issues... mine is the main account for our home, so he has mine just because he has it. I doubt hes ever actually looked into my e-mail... and to be honest, I could care less if he did. All I would request would be for him not to delete anything, because it may not seem important to him, but might be to me.
Reply:Yes we do.





Cell phone voicemail passwords too.





The funny thing is, when you have open access to these things, you aren't even interested in looking anyway.





Can't undertand some of these answers already.





On the day we said "I do" yours and mine became "Ours".
Reply:We have been together for 9 years but we exchanged passwords at 3 months I would say but we were as serious about our relationship then as we are now. Now we have a set of passwords we use and eventually he would be able to figure it out anyway.
Reply:we do...not to check on each other though...we each use each other's cell phones...and I've had to have him check my email from time to time if I can't get to it and he has had to do the same as well.









Reply:No. I have never asked for hers and have no reason to know it. Trust is one of the foundations of marriage. If I could not trust my wife completely I definitely would not have remarried.
Reply:Yes, I do. and so do my fiancee. but I completely understand if couple prefer to keep privacy. Either way, it is perfectly normal.
Reply:We have shared are pass words i have nothing to hide and i would hope to think that he hasn't either. He even knows my pin numbers to my credit cards has since we been together. 4 years now coming up
Reply:married almost 8 years. he doesnt have mine, simply because i dont have his. no reason to really, in my opinion.
Reply:Nope. I have no reason to access his personal, confidential e-mail and he has no reason to access mine.
Reply:I have hers...because she cheated...and got caught. Now she has to make everything an open book. That does not prevent her from opening a secret account, but if she does she knows we are done. So far, so good
Reply:We know each others passwords, but we NEVER read personal mail unless invited to do so.
Reply:Email to me should be just like the US mail. It's private. I don't open my wife's and expect the same courtesy.
Reply:No way.





Thats all mine:)





Then again, I don't even think he knows HIS email password..........
Reply:My wife does not know my passwords.


We have been together for 20+ years.


I do it, just to drive her crazy.
Reply:my husband knows my password, i have nothing to hide..
Reply:I have hers...She doesn't have mine...Seems to be no big deal...I honestly believe that she couldn't care-less...
