Is it suspicious if your boyfriend gives you his passwords but he has 2 factor authentication?

[Anonymous]

I've been with my boyfriend about a year and I have been asking him for passwords for a while now because I've been cheated on before and I want to make sure he's not talking inappropriately to other girls but he was refusing and we've fought about it to many times but I persisted and he eventually gave in and gave me his IG and FB passwords but when I went to try them he had 2 Factor Authentication on them and when I confronted him about it he LAUGHED and said it's for security purposes he's always used that but I reckon he turned it on before giving me the passwords what do you think and what should I do?

Yes it is suspicious

No it isn't suspicious

That is good account security, I would never give anyone my passwords for any reason. She is never getting them period. If she is truly worth being my girlfriend and wants to date an IT boyfriend she understands my stance on good security. That said, I'd happily unlock my stuff for her so she can take a look if she needs to. Asking me in random moments should be enough if you have initial suspicion of me or have trust issues because of a past relationship. She can be in the driving seat of the device, but only in my presence and obviously she is only allowed to view and not modify anything without my permission. If she were to try that i'd immediately lock the device again.

I will add though that it makes absolutely no difference. Anyone on my skill level could fool you if he wanted to. For example I have a special calculator on my phone that to you will look like a calculator. You won't think any of it, put a special number on it and it has alt accounts for instant messages, porn and that kind of stuff. I have it even though I am single, why? I don't have a business phone, so if I am at work all the NSFW stuff is completely hidden away. My boss can be looking over my shoulder as I show him something on my phone and it will never show him anything he is not supposed to see.

The difference? I'd proudly show my girlfriend so she knows about it, I wouldn't hide that section of my phone from her since its purpose will be to securely hide her own stuff she sent me (In my last relationship that was all that I had in that section). So when driving the device she can just ask me to unlock everything, and she'd know about the hidden sections of the phone. But if my intent was to hide it from her I could easily hide it by not telling her about those.

Ur probably cute... so go up to him, and tilt ur head over, put on a flirty face like really cute and look right at him. If he tries to ignore looking right into ur face or he goes uhhh😦... can't ignore it and his jaw drops down... he's a total fboy. Trust me, I know.😭

Forcing someone to give you their passwords is incredibly toxic. If they want to share their passwords okay that's fine, but fighting about it is stupid. If he's not given you a reason to worry you shouldn't, even if you were cheated on before. Also, cheaters ALWAYS find a way if they want to. Does he have all your social media passwords?
But also which two factor authentication are you talking about, password and what else? Yes that does have a security purpose, but if he's using two methods to ALWAYS log in...

You really need to stop. Your behavior is annoying. If a guy likes you he will show you. Clocking his every move is not going to make him like you more.
Get a grip and use your energy to look for red flags then cut him off.


If you get his pw and catch him cheating and you stay with him, you will look like a desperate fool.

You could ask him to login for you to browse.
If he logins for you, then it doesn't matter how complicated login routines he has,
you can still browse around after he has logged in for you.

On the other hand, if you feel like you constantly need to check up on him and can't trust him. Then maybe you shouldn't be together.

If it's not just him, if you can't trust anyone.
Then maybe you should see a psychiatrists instead of a boyfriend.

2 factor id isn't proof one way or the other
