FILL is definitely my stalker

I asked the question cause I have a good friend whose girlfriend told him she'd been snooping, and now he's having some trust issues. They went through some other trust issues recently, so to him, now it seems like she is looking for more reasons to "catch" him doing something wrong.

I told him... CLEARLY you are not in the Trust Tree. Which is understandable considering their situation.
 
I just wonder how long this behavior should be allowed to go on? To be fair to her, he DID do something to break her trust. But is she allowed to stalk his privacy for the rest of their lives, trying to catch him?

To me, you either trust someone or you don't. If you can't trust them enough to not snoop when you have the opportunity, you need to re-evaluate your relationship.

And yes, I've snooped before.
 


Is that a new dance?


Why does Snoop dog carry an umbrella?

Fo' drizzle...


What does he use to get his clothes white?

I went through this with Neil last year.  I (accidentally, was not snooping) found a text message I was not supposed to see, and he came clean with everything.  We split up for a short while, he gave me access to all of his emails, his phone when I wanted, everything.  For the first 3 months we were "trying" to work it out, but I was compulsively checking his email, his phone his whatever.  Eventually I realized either I had to stop snooping or break it off for good.  I haven't snooped once since I made that decision, and we're doing just fine. 

Not like 3 months is a magical number, but SHE has to be honest with herself, if she doesn't want to trust him, why is she trying to make it work.  It took me 3 months to forgive Neil and get to a point where I could move on.  But she's only tormenting herself, him, and probably ALL of her friends as she does this.

Not an answer for your friend, but maybe he needs to sit her down and say "if you aren't working on trusting me, this isn't working for us.  Save yourself this agony you are putting yourself through."

I don't snoop, nor would I ever accept anyone snooping through my things.

Please define "things".

I totally agree, been trying to tell him all of this! I think it's acceptable to "go through the process" of re-gaining the trust, but at some point you either have to trust again (wholesale forgive as someone else said), or call it quits.

I feel bad for the guy. He's trying so hard.
