    I don't know why I bother posting here. I already know what y'all are going to say. I checked my boyfriend's email and accidentally erased some spam I thought it was my mailbox and I usually just delete spam. But it was his. And I think he had some things in there that he needed. I feel real bad cause i'm not spuposed to be in his email. i mean he knows that i know the password and all its not a secret, but we never discussed going in each other's mail. i check it from time to time to see what is going on because he doesn't tell me everything. but he never said not to and he never told me it was ok if i wanted to. he knows my password too. I don't know if he goes in my mail, but i don't care cause there isn't much in there anyway. anyway, he will figure it out sometime today and i don't know what to do cause he will be real mad and he might break up with me or not trust me no more. he already is mad about something else (which in my opinion is completely innocent) and he says that i'm not honest. well he isn't honest either. i shouldn't have to read his mail to get info, he should be tellin me i think. so now what do i do.

    Just be honest with him and admit what happened. I'm sure he'll be much more understanding about it if you handle the situation that way instead of keeping it from him.

    Good luck.

    well, i don't know why i'm bothering to reply to you, then... [​IMG]

    but, anyway...

    i'm confused... you said you thought you were logged into your email account, but then you go on to say that you have his password and do check his email from time to time. so, how did it come about that you were logged into his email account? did he stay signed in? or did you "mistakenly" enter his password as your own? or what?

    if he just forgot to log out of his email on the computer, i wouldn't worry about it, because that was an honest mistake. but if you accidently logged in because you were checking up on him, then forgot or whatever, you're going to have to confess. there's really no other way around it.

    that means that he trusted you enough to feel like he didn't have to tell you not to invade his privacy. it's NOT okay if you want to... but he doesn't have to tell you that, it should be obvious.

    so, talk to him. be honest. tell him yourself before he finds out on his own. and be strong!!

    Email is like real mail. If it ain't yours stay the hell out of it.

    Well, unless he has consented to you reading his emails, and has nothing to hide, then no harm was done. But you really need to deal with the security issues, especially if you feel that he could possibly be unfaithful. Because I really believe that in order to read emails and divulge into his private matters, there would have to be some insecurity issues. That is not meant to hurt, but meant to ponder.

    I just am curious: why do you check his email? If it's not about trust, are you just curious to see who talks to him? Do you feel left out of part of his life or not as involved as you would like to be?

    privacy is only a detriment to true love

    true love means sharing everything everything

    in my humble opinion


    my girlfriend knows all my passwords
    and i know hers

    nothing to hide

    I don't understand. First you say it was an accident, then you say you check his e-mail.

    Did you purposely read his e-mail, or not?

    If it was an accident, like, he was checking his e-mail on your computer, and accidently clicked the "stay signed in" box on the screen, and you went on yahoo or whatever you use and thought it was your name that was logged on and not him well, accidents happen. Tell him and I'm sure he'd understand.

    If you read it on purpose, well I don't support that. And you need to tell him. He has the right to know. And, unless he says its okay, you should stop, because it's wrong.

    But I do want to know this: why do you guys give each other your passwords if you haven't even talked about whether or not you are both okay with this?

    The last guy who broke into my email...I dumped his ass.

    Sorry, but snail mail and email are addressed for people for a reason.

    Grow up or GET OUT

    I agree-you were not supposed to be in his email.
    Most likely yours has some shit in it though.

    My friend checked his girlfriend's email to see if she had gotten an email that he had sent to her (I'm not too sure if that was the REAL reason). But when he was checking he found all these other emails from another guy that said, "I don't mind if we don't do anything, I just love laying naked next to you" and things of that nature!! Could you imagine!! I would die.
    Anyways, he freaked out and broke up with her.
