It says more about you than it does about them.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Picture this; it\u2019s late at night. Your partner is fast asleep, maybe even snoring, and you see their phone light up. \u201cWho would be reaching out to them at this time?\u201d you think to yourself. The temptation begins to build as you contemplate to cross a line that should not be crossed.Going through someone\u2019s phone, or\u00a0snooping, is something many of us look down upon. Luckily, I\u2019m here to stop you from doing this. These are the five reasons why you shouldn\u2019t go through your partner\u2019s phone if you\u2019re hoping to build trust in your relationship.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

1. You\u2019ll slip up at some point (and find out some things that probably aren\u2019t your business to begin with).<\/p>\n

It may not seem like a big deal at the time but when you snoop, you gain access to all of this information and you are effectively in this person\u2019s shoes. Little details will be discovered, like conversations with friends and family, random emails, and social media messages. You\u2019re going to have a lot of new information bestowed upon you all at once.Maybe these aren\u2019t major secrets, but they could be. Knowing someone\u2019s deepest darkest secrets without them knowing is pretty terrifying.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Of course you\u2019re most likely going to find something. But not finding anything usually leads to more questions than answers.Let\u2019s say you don\u2019t find any secrets. What if you\u2019re just conversing with your partner a while later, and you bring up some information you wouldn\u2019t have known unless you went through their phone?\u00a0Your partner may look at you strange, an awkwardness will ensue \u2026 and now you\u2019ve put yourself in an uncomfortable predicament.2. You go through it once, you\u2019re likely to do it again.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This may depend on your personality, but having the ability to go through someone\u2019s phone is a window into their day-to-day life. It\u2019s something very personal, and even if you have nothing to hide, a lot of who you are is inside this device.Peering into this machine may cause a rush of blood to your brain, and adrenaline might consume you as you look through app after app after app, hoping (or not) to find something.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This can\u00a0easily<\/em>\u00a0develop into a habit, and you will certainly not feel comfortable until \u2018checking\u2019 your partner\u2019s phone just like you check your own before a good night\u2019s sleep. You may begin to take this even further, and it is not healthy in the slightest.3. You\u2019ll eventually get caught.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The rush you might get may come from the possibility of getting caught. This might be one of the strangest encounters possible in a relationship. Not as bad as getting caught cheating, of course, but definitely just under that.Fear of getting caught is never a good excuse, but it\u2019s definitely a motive to NOT attempt this at all.Imagine your partner rolls over and opens their eyes slowly, still rubbing their tired eyes, only to find you perusing through their instagram messages? Yikes! I\u2019m sure you would like to avoid that confrontation.<\/p>\n

4. You\u2019re violating their privacy, plain and simple.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the Patriot Act was enacted over a decade ago, many people felt their privacy was going to be violated. An uneasy feeling of a stranger listening in on calls, reading texts\/emails just did not sit right with the American public.This is a normal reaction, as any person should have a right to their privacy. I mean we are all individuals and being in a relationship does not change that. Sharing is one thing, but violating privacy, without one\u2019s knowing is sure to cause guilt and shame, if anything.<\/p>\n

5. You\u2019re also breaking their trust.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What\u2019s a relationship without trust? I could pummel you with vapid platitudes about trust for the rest of the article. But we all know how important trust is.The main question that should be asked is what are you trying to find? At this point, there may be other problems in your relationship, so the important thing to do is to be mature and communicate\u00a0before\u00a0this even becomes a thought.Why bother being with your partner at all, if there is no trust? Love is scary, but it should have rules. And when rules are broken, chaos ensues. Next time you think about reaching for that phone, stop. Don\u2019t do it to yourself. And most importantly, don\u2019t do it to them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
