I'm just curious. Would you give your password to your partners? Feel free to share your thoughts about giving passwords to your partners. Happy mylotting.

I have a facebook account, but I haven't given my wife my password, nor has she given me hers. It isn't a case of lack of trust, rather an abundance of trust in each other. I have no reason to need access to her account. We are often online next to each other sitting in bed on our laptops and look at each others screens as well as sometimes she asks me to read her text to her and vice versa. Hiding something from each other isn't even a thought in our minds.

Oh, that's good. At least you are very open to each other without sharing your passwords. I guess you have a good and healthy relationship with your wife. Goodluck to both of you. Happy mylotting.

Oh, I agree with you. Even though my husband is my husband and I am his wife, we still have two different lives. I can say that he owns me and I own him but he shouldn't control me and I shouldn't control him. He can do what he wants and I can also do what I want but there should be some limitations.

yes and i want to avoid the idea of other marriage couple as if one owns the other,.. i want to emphasize that a relationship is different from ownership...

I think if we are really close, and of course since i have nothing to hide, i would not be having second thoughts on giving my password to my boyfriend, if i have a boyfriend! =)

Oh, you don't have yet. That's good you are willing to share it. I guess it's no use of giving him because you won't hide anything from him. Thanks for posting and happy mylotting.

Yeah I did twice with both of my exes before. With my first ex back in 2004, it was the social networking site called SWYDM. I had a little blog and some pics of myself there. With the second ex in 2011, I gave him access to both my old and new Facebook accounts because I had pictures in there which I wanted to show him. Well I trusted both during the course of the relationship. After the relationship ended, I had to change my password. Simple as that.

Wow, you're so cool. Yes, it's so simple especially for single people. For us married couples, we can't change our passwords as simple as that. There might be interrogations. LOL. Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.

Yes, my husband knows my password. I have no issues with him knowing my passwords for anything. I just trust him completely and have nothing to hide from him (although he never goes into my accounts anyway). Now, if I were talking about my EX-spouse, there is no way in hell I'd ever give him a password to anything!

LOL. I guess you are so angry with your EX-spouse. I'm glad you haven't given him your password. Yes, there's nothing wrong if we give our passwords to someone dear to us. Happy mylotting.

Oh, very suspicious, jealous and untrusting. Yeah, good you haven't shared him your password. LOL. If you happened to give him, I'm sure you had a lot of arguments. Thanks for sharing. Happy mylotting.

No, not angry with my ex. Just would have never given him anything like that due to the type of personality he has...very suspicious, jealous and un-trusting.

Oh, it's just a matter of trust between you two. That's great to hear. You are right, we have to trust one another. Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.

My partner knows my facebook password as well as my email password and it has nothing to do with trust. I gave him my passwords awhile ago because he logged on to send something from my account, he probably doesn't even remember the password anymore because it was so long ago now.

Yes, I agree with you. It's not always about "trust." I guess it's not a big issue to some people. There's no problem in giving our passwords, we know that our partners are trustworthy and they respect us as an individual. But some partners are in different situations. We can't blame if they can'tgive their passwords to anyone even their own partners. Happy mylotting.

both my husband and I have have facebook accounts. But neither of us have each other's passwords. If a partner has the password, they can easily abuse the trust. It also give partner the opportunity to check up on what you do. May be you are trying to organise a surprise for your partner, you couldn't do it if you partner has the password. I am trying to organise some thing for my husband and the only contact I have the the people I am trying to organise with is facebook. But my husband has abused my trust once and I caught him out on a sneak. He didn't trust me enough and had to check up on me with another program. Even though with this other program, he didn't need a password, he still felt the need to check up on me behind my back and pretended nothing happened was wrong. I don't ask for his password and he doesn't ask for mine because it comes down to a matter of trust. I do talk about and share with him what I have said and done on my facebook. But in the mean time, I log off every time I leave the computer to reduce temptation. He has done it once and there would be no stopping to try it again.

Oh, yes. That's why we still need our privacy. If they know our password, there'll be no any surprise party anymore. You can no longer organize any. The best thing is to call them not thru Facebook anymore. Yes, sometimes they become abusive. They'll check our accounts whenever they want to. Happy mylotting.

good day angelkarah050182, with reference to your post, there is nothing wrong giving password to your partner. but, before doing that, it is best to think that many times. hence, a lot of incident happened wherein passwords are being shared by a partner. that the end result was not really good. in this regard, i think, email accounts should be keep private. except you and your partner will create a separate account applicable to both of you. in this instance, you can have a sharing password.

Yes, I do agree with you. If we share our passwords, they already have full access to our accounts. They can read everything posted, sent and received there. Yes, there are some couples argue about some things in Facebook. I hope they'll just respect each other's privacy. By doing that, there'll be no trouble. Happy mylotting airashiela...

I don't think it is proper. That's your personal account, besides it would be better if you have something left to keep.
• Philippines
4 Sep 12
Oh, yes. It's better if we'll keep them to ourselves. However, one day our partners will try to get them and if we don't give them they might think that we are hiding something from them. So to prove, we just give them our passwords. Happy mylotting.

I don't think this is necessary. We need to discrete and clear for our special someone, not to invade everything. We need to keep something for us, it doesn't mean you are keeping something to him or her. But we need to live like we used to be.

Oh, I guess I get what you mean. Even if we are bonded by marriage or something, we are still two different people having our own lives. We can't give them everything. We still need our privacy. Happy mylotting.

I have given him my body and soul , which is the most important thing , how much more with the facebook account. Not only in fbook but in all my accounts gmail , twitter , blog and all. Why do i have to keep it when i want to be open to him. That's what love and trust can do. I have entrusted him everything.

Yes, I agree with you. We give them our heart, body and soul so why not give them our passwords? Password is just a very little thing compared to those things. Love, respect, understanding, and honesty are very important in every relationship. Happy mylotting.

Yes, we need to have our privacy too. So, it's just between you and your partner to talk about this. Your partner can't force you if you don't want to. Happy mylotting.

Yes. Definitely. I'm hiding nothing from him. He can check my accounts if he wants to. But you know what, what really made me proud with my partner is that, he still respects my privacy. Even though he has all the access to my accounts, he never bothers to open them. Not that he is not interested, but because he still respects my individuality.

Oh, that's so sweet. It's good to know that you are willing to give your password to your future wife or wife. You trust her a lot and that's why you are willing to share your own account with her. Happy mylotting.

I have given my password to my bf and what pisses me off is that he blocked some of my friends and sometimes unfriends my friends that are chatting with me.I confronted him about it and now he is not opening my account anymore.

Hi angel, yes I've done that just because my bf wants me to xD (even though I don't want to because it's invasion of one's privacy) but he promised that he won't delete anything and so I trusted him because I love him. Just lately he's acting like a child and asked me to change my profile picture with "us" tehehe, so I just did.

Oh, so changed your picture because of him. You're using your picture together as your profile picture now. I found that sweet. I also use our profile picture together. However, everytime I get angry I use my solo picture. LOL. I hope he won't be that strict to you. Happy mylotting.
