PRIVACY IN RELATIONSHIPS

in #hive-1057272 years ago

Hey friends am glad to be in this wonderful community I am Celestina from Nigeria and this is my first post here.
I came across this wonderful topic and I decided to participate.

Note that privacy is different from secret. Privacy means keeping something personal not Sharing it with someone. While secret is sharing something essential with someone.

That brings me to answering this question

- What do you think in regards to privacy in relationships?

Privacy in a relationship is a very important key that keeps a relationship growing and healthy but it doesn't mean you start keeping secrets in the relationship.
No matter the type of relationship you are you have the right to some certain privacy

- Is it okay for partners to go through each others phone?

Some people think going through their partners phone while in a relationship will help build trust, that ridiculous I can testify that going through ones partners phone shows a sign of fear or lack of trust, I will use myself as an example.
I am in a complicated relationship because of lack of trust, I formed the habit of checking my partners phone to make sure he doesn't have any girl in his life, I always peep when ever he is chatting and most times I take the phone to delete pictures of Any strange girl I find there, it became a habit for me whenever his phone rings Its either he puts it on speaker or tells me who the person is,at some point I guess he got fed up and started hiding his phone saying he doesn't have any privacy and that alone made me more suspicious at the end it was just my insecurities that was eating me up.
Going through your partners phone solely depends on your the person if they willingly give you the phone to go through, that is better than invading their privacy or making it a habit. Constantly snooping on your partners phone can easily break the relationship.

- Does keeping your phone away from partner spell infidelity?

It doesn't really spell infidelity from my story I could see how frustrating it was as I kept on nagging and checking the phone even after I found nothing I still kept pushing on, one hiding their phone from their partners might literally be for their own good, I could remember a friend who kept on insisting that her husband was cheating because she felt he always change the password on his phone and doesn't allow her touch his phone one fateful day she took his phone while he was in the bathroom and she found out that her best friend have been making advances at her husband but because of the love he had for her he turned her down, she also saw where he told her that if not for how close she was with his wife he would have told her, she felt really hurt finding our her own best friend tried taking her husband from her.
So you see he hid his phone for her own good but she couldn't understand until she succeeded in going through the phone.

CONCLUSION

Privacy is more necessary in relationships because it builds trust,it shows respect and also builds intimacy.

It is never a wise idea to go through your partners phone, even if they grant you access. Makes no sense if you ask me
