Yeah but i don't need to use passwords and all that crap. I have no secrets from him and because of that, he's not remotely interested in my private emails :)
-
I don't see why not. I mean, significant? I think that earns a password or two :)
-
Yes, my wife and I share any passwords we have (e.g. email, websites), as and when the need arises.
-
we naturally know each others passwords on everything, we just dont have the need to use them on eachother.
-
I already do.
-
no i won't, because nowadays you cannot just trust anyone, unless that person is proven to be one which you can really trust on 100% and he or she has already proven that they can be trusted.
-
No, I wouldn't, because as much as I love them, I still have the right to my privacy ~ To ask me to do so is like acting like I'm a child, which I am not.
-
Yes - I have nothing to hide.
-
absolutely not... significant others can leave ya know.
-
If he asked, I would think he didn't fully trust me. I think everyone is entitled to privacy. I have no secrets from my bf, so he trusts me implicitly.
-
My husband and I know each others passwords. What would I have to hide?
-
Absolutely! If I found a woman who could tolerate living with me, I would have nothing to hide from her. I see no reason not to share the password with her. Besides, what I consider a "Significant Other" would be my wife. Since my bank statement, credit card bills, etc. go to my email, it would only be common sense to give her the passwords to access these finacially critical pieces of information.
-
My wife and I share passwords already. We have nothing to hide from each other. She also has my WoW account passwords and plays on my characters quite frequently while I'm at work.
-
No. Sometimes, that significant other can turn into the most dangerous person in your life
-
her computer broke this weekend so I gave her my password . nbd I don't have anything to hide
-
No. I'd let them in if they asked, but I wouldn't want them to have free access to it. You never know what a disgruntled lover would do after a fight.
-
Sure I have nothing to hide :)
-
Of course, we have no secrets, he knows mine and I know his!
-
YEs I would.
-
Why did your significant other ask you for your email password? I would ask why, because it may be an issue of him not trusting or it could be for a real purpose. Everyone has provided the answers, depending on which reason the password was asked for. Sorry if I'm being too assumptive, it just seemed you were asked this question recently.
-
Nope... That's what Keyloggers are for.
-
probably not, just like I wouldn't want theirs. It has nothing about having things to hide, its just that I want independence still and some privacy. There are plenty of ways people can cheat and if they are gonna do it they will, but what reason they would need my email password is beyond me, the messages are for me....just like his would be for him. He be more than welcome to read a mail that I was reading. but as for my password, nope...cant see it happening.
-
they are automatically saved any ways
-
No...Could cause trouble...
-
I do, he knows mine and I know his.
-
Yes.
-
It depends on wheather you would like that person to check your e-mail on a regular basis.
-
no, that is my personal stuff
-
no no no i did once and never again...
-
yes without question
-
He knows mine, but then I have nothing to hide and have never given him a reason not to trust me. He, on the other hand, protects his like it is sacred. I don't care though. I don't need his password to know what he is doing. He likes to flirt and tell girls they are hot and tell them they sound amazing....blah blah blah. Even here on answerbag he does that. Oh well, I figure if he is dumb enough to mess around on me, then he deserves what he gets. So, yeah, he knows all of my passwords.
-
nope, personal info. I wont give anyone my password.
-
Yup, no problem. :)
-
He knows all of my passwords.
-
I would give my password, but I prefer not. I don't go through his wallet, he stays out of my purse. WE can go into each others items, but it is just respect of privacy.
-
yes...
-
Sure I have no problem with that. We don't have any secrets. Of course he wouldn't know what to do with it as he has me do the 'driving' on the computer LOL!!!!
-
Yes,I guess. The whole family can use any one of the 3 computers in the house,the other 2 are desktops and this one is the laptop. If there is a password to any of our accounts,we all know it already.It's XXXXXXX :) (like I would....why you....lol)
-
I have nothing to hide but i wouldn't give him mine there is really no need for him to have it, he has his own and i think we as indiviuals have the right to are privacy.
-
I already do.....nothing to hide here.
-
I would have done if my husband had ever wanted it.
-
My significant other has my credit cards, my bank account numbers, my social security number, my unlimited power of attorney, my medical power of attorney ( she can get the doctors to pull the plug on me under certain circumstances ), and enough insurance to never have to work again after I die. And you're wanting to know if I would share my email account's password with her? LMAO!
-
Of course, but I'd change it the minute he looked away!
-
If I didn't then how could we say there's trust in our relationship?
