I would never ask my husband for his passwords. I have never thought of giving him mine either. Just haven’t thought of it. Of course, my whole life is not on my phone.

Do the couples mentioned text each other at the dinner table or in bed? I guess I’m an old codger.

I went through this nonsense with my husband of 32 years. Email, fb, phone, all of it, go ahead, look at it all. Of course there was nothing to see, but if someone wants to be suspicious, even the absence of anything wrong is proof. It's a bullshit game I refuse to play.

I’ve yet to meet a woman I would trust enough to share my passwords with. I guess that’s probably one of the reasons I am unmarried :)

Hell, anybody can have my sister’s password to anything. Here it is” ‘QWERTY1234’

I don’t believe in sharing that type of information, especially if you’re just dating.

That said now that we are older we have both created a file for the other of our passwords in case one of us dies or gets very ill.

We have heard of friends that had a spouse die and there were things like insurance websites, financial websites where the spouse couldn’t get in to pay bills. Oftentimes they had to provide a death certificate to even be able to pay their bills.

Also with things like social media there may be a lot of friends that the spouse knows from school, jobs etc. that the surviving spouse doesn’t know and it’s nice to have a password to get in. Also FB will not get rid of a spouse’s account unless you have a password to get in to take it off active status. I’ve seen where people die and all kinds of things are written on there and there’s nothing the surviving spouse can do because they can’t get into the FB or whatever.

So we did put a file together where all those passwords are filed and we both have access to it for that reason.

Just an idea for other FReepers. Take care and thanks for posting this.

Don’t give anybody your password you wouldn’t give your ATM pin number to.

“Maybe instead of us lying in bed and looking at each other’s phones,” he jokes, “we should just talk more.”

LOL! Uh, DUH!
