Do you give your significant other the passcode to your phone?

Question

On the receiving end, would you think this is a good or bad thing?

When I was in love and thought he loved me too, Yes I did.
now we are still together but he hurt me a lot and I don’t feel the same connection so I don’t let him see my stuff. I’m not hiding anything or cheating, just don’t feel he has anything to do in my stuff.
info could find someone else I would, but around my age most guys are already taken or don’t take women like me seriously so I just stay here with him even when I lost all enthusiasm and trust. I also don’t care what he has in his phone either. He also won’t leave the relationship because he’s too lazy to try. I can see he wants it to be like before and watch my stuff and me watch his but I lost all interest in that. I just want to be with someone, sadly it’s not all lovely how I wanted it to be. How we started.

I never had a boyfriend but I would give him the code if he want, my phone don't even close though cause the button is broken so even if I refused to give him the code he could easily assess to it.

yes, don't want secrets in intimate relationships that can fester into other trust issues or worse.

How about this, weekly we stand on stage in accountability groups and review what we did with our phones and if that's true to the contract/values we strive for.

I'm a private person by nature and I don't like or appreciate people snooping around my stuff so probably not no.

Plus if someone is trying to get into my phone that's kinda a pretty clear sign they are insecure and untrusting kinda red flags.

Ah, the infamous phone passcode debate! In the world of love and trust, sharing a passcode can mean transparency and openness. It shows, "I trust you enough, what you see is what you get." But, on the flip side, it could become a double-edged sword if it leads to unwarranted snooping. As a relationship coach, I'd say it should be more about trust and communication than the digits to your phone. Trust should be an open book, not confined to a passcode! 😄📱❤️

OlderAndWiser · Answer

She has never asked for it and I have never asked for her code, but I would give it to her if she asked.

AviatorTom · Answer

My wife sometimes uses my phone, and I give her the PIN. She never remembers it.

Lilibet · Answer

It’s not a big deal to have each other passwords etc, but snooping around is not fair and a sign of insecurity. Sometimes I used my partner phone but I never went through his messages etc. I have nothing to hide so I wouldn’t mind but it would bother me if he would go through my phone just to check if I’m doing something or not

Tarifa · Answer

Sure. She has the password to my phone and I know the password to hers. She can read all my messages if she wants to. I don't know if she would, but I have nothing to hide.

Babygirl_S · Answer

Sure if he can be trusted to not misuse that. Some partners may have a tendency to post repulsive things on your behalf ruining your reputation. Others may financially abuse you. I know a thug who stole my money. He has a lot more than me but steals mine like an effeminate man he is.

WhitneySnow · Answer

No and I don’t have the passcode to his. But I trust him and I’m pretty sure he trusts me too.

Cormac995 · Answer

I think it's a good thing but it should go both ways and only if it goes both ways. If only one of you has to do that it's a massive red flag. If both of you agree I see that as a big sign of trust and transparency.

Agape93 · Answer

Yeap, I don't have anything to hide so idgaf what they see

PBandJ_Nerd · Answer

I don't have a password on my phone due to it just being easier & in case of emergencies. It doesn't mean a future partner should look through it, though.

Kelley1 · Answer

That is not relevant. I don't passcode my phone.

Maybe_Maybe_not · Answer

No girlfriend ever asked me, which makes sense because I would not understand her incentive. Plus such a request sounds fishy so I don't think she would be all right asking anyway

sawno · Answer

No I wouldn't, I'm an IT geek so security is important to me and I expect her to understand that. If she wants access she could ask with me looking over her shoulder what she's doing.

Aubrey97 · Answer

Don't even have a code on my phone. He can see it anytime. There's nothing on there I need to hide.

Anonymous · Answer

Me and my partner at times have to use eachothers phones so we both know eachothers pass codes. The way we see it is that if you have nothing to hide then you should be able to let your partner know your password / pass code.

Babebytheshore85 · Answer

I dont understand the point of doing that? To me that would indicate trust issues. I don't feel there's a need to do that.

itsannalee · Answer

I did give but he keeps forget about it and still asks every time he wants to open my phone.

Jessikaah91 · Answer

He knows my passcodes for my phone, he never just goes through it anyway. But nothing to hide here

Chayce · Answer

This is a good question. While there should be trust in the relationship, if I'm subjected to some random phone check every so often it's not gonna work out.

KittygosMeoWW · Answer

I used to with my ex until he started blocking my friends but I’m single now and I don’t think I’m gonna give any man that until he’s my husband

Awesomesauce2005 · Answer

We volunteered it to each other with neither of us asking so yes

Quigly · Answer

I don't have a smartphone, it's an invasion of your privacy. This question is just more proof phone culture is all about invading your privacy. The best thing to do is get rid of your Smartphone. It's for Dumbasses.

trumpetplayerforlife · Answer

Yeah Me and my husband us each other's phones all the time if ours isn't around lol

LazerBean · Answer

Sure. I know a lot of my husband's passwords for various things, and he knows mine.

Fireguy17 · Answer

I don't have a passcode on my phone, she doesn't have one either. If she wants to look at it I really don't care.

fish5505_87 · Answer

My wife knows my code, I now hers, however, she is always annoyed when I pick up her phone, vent by, mistake? She is always looking at mine! I have nothing to hide, lol!

MysteriousDarkness · Answer

One person could say if you need my passcode then you don't trust me. The otherperson could say if you won't give your passcode then you have something negative to hide.

slatyb · Answer

We're two different people and we don't share phones.

the_lee1982 · Answer

I don't give her direct access to my phone. However, if she would like to look in it, I'll open it for her. I have nothing to hide.

michalpl00 · Answer

In a relationship their is no privacy. If you want privacy, congratulations you just became single!  Have my phone, I am a loyal person. Check what you want when you want.

loveyouoak · Answer

The phone passcode is private. No one should give their phone passcode to anyone else.
