Husbands, do you allow your wives free access to your mobile handset at all times?
When the phone chimes, who picks up the call? You or her?
And the most serious one, when you have a text message, who reads it first? you or wife?
This simple question has wrecked homes in the past.

Do u have any secrets u re hidding that u don't want her knowing about
because i don't see nothing wrong, if a wife picks/ answer her husband calls.
when u are married, u have no secrets, u are like twins now.
U don't need permission to ur spouse phone.

of course, men have and keep secrets. secrets demanding from the nature of their jobs, their past lives, their surprises and take or leave it, their flippancies. what man is there without secrets?
let me listen up first.

I don't have any problem with my husband answering my phone as I don't have anything to hide. Same goes for him. But of course, if we are both in the room and his phone rings or he receives a message, he will pick it and vice-versa. In a marriage there aren't supposed to be any secrets or hidings or slippings. Those are actually the things that wreck a home. of course, men have and keep secrets. secrets demanding from the nature of their jobs, their past lives, their surprises and take or leave it, their flippancies. what man is there without secrets?
And you find this normal??? |

Everybody to his or her phone. That is the only way
to avoid wrecking your home expecially in these days
of women's infidelity.

And you don"t? please, you people should stop selling this irreal idea that marriage ceases to make a person a distinct human personality. that he becomes a cojoined contraption of the other person once he ties the nuptial cord.
i am me and she is herself, married or single. i never cease to maintain my life for the sake of marriage. i never cease to maintain my phone regardless of marriage. except you want it incorporated into all marriage contracts that by this ring, i shall swap my sim cards.
i believe looking into your wife"s phone is like looking into her handbag, what you see i what you asked for

Unless the wife is the one footing the bill she has absolutely no right to answer her husband's phone and vice versa.
There is a thin line between love and privacy, Case closed!!!

any one who calls my hubby's mobile is expecting to speak to him, not me and vice versa.
if he hides in the bathroom to answer the phone, then THAT is another matter!

In a normal situation, everybody will answer his/her phone. Theres is nothing special about answering phone calls anyway. But there comes a time when someone is unable to answer his/her phone. it is normal. probably left ur phone at home etc. In this situation, it is normal after say 5 or 6 repeated calls from the same number that somebody else apart from answers the phone. it is normal. fathers answer their sons phones. siblings answewr each others phones in this circumstance.
The problem comes when without any reason a husband/wife insists that a spouse should not answer his/her phone. it becomes obvious that there is a call you expect to recieve that your spouse must not know about. In other words you have secrets. trouble. from that point henceforth, the aggrieved spouse starts scheming on how to search the phone for sms or calls. trust then goes out the window.
As for me, when the circumstance demands, I take my wifes calls and vice versa. when we go out i hold both fones. and except shes close by i answer hers. Whats more we both have the passwords to our e-mail boxes. end of story.

When there is love, there is no secrecy. I answer my husband's phone, read his sms, send on his behalf and vice versa. While should it ruin marriages? No reason of course except for most men who run extra curicullum activities and don't feel comfortably picking their phones in the bedroom and always feigning "no service"  |

If there is trust in a relationship I don't see why the woman or man should not be allowed to pick each others calls.
Of course sometime one needs to do some explaining or introduction to new acquaintances to avoid doubts in the
relationship.

As expected the women want to know who is calling and if possible answer the calls themselves and the men don't.
As a matter of policy I don't and won't answer my woman's calls except specifically asked to do so,I don't look in her handbag either,I don't expect her to answer my mobile calls,if I don't pick up leave a message thats why we have voicemails.I can't stand women who go through my phonebook or try reading my sms.I always have a user lock on my cellphones.
No matter how married or in love we are.we all need privacy in our lives,what next! we should read minds just to make sure there is no deciet!

No no no! it's is not advisable. no matter how free or love u have for your wife, it's not every call you allow her to pic. She can't even pic my call without my consent because an official call can come in @ any time and you will end up not being happy with her. so women wacht it!  |

In all honesty, I was guilty of being that nosy As in i wanted know whos calling/texting my man @ what time? Who he's calling/texting @ what time and about what At the end of the day Its only me that was suffering because he didn't care and we ended up arguing because he wouldn't elaborate on things its our own personal insecurities that cause such behavior We should be able to trust that there isn't anything inappropriate going on Ideally- especially if they've never broken your trust before but now a days, it's hard to trust but both parties shouldn't make such a big deal about it.
Don't stress your man to see his phone, in fact JUST DON'T
Don't freak out when your lady wants to see your phoneIf you're up to no good, then get another handset and put a lock code on it. Just don't be surprised when she gets one also Or pack out  |

it's all about trust, if i'm not around or wetin reach she has every right to pick my calls and relay the message to me.but in the case where i'm around, she jus has to let me answer my call and if she wants to know who called as far as she doesn't fuse over it then i'll tell her.if she also deciedes to check my call/sms log and suspects foul play,i should be able to bail myself. But i feel these is the truth ot the matter; "BE MY FRIEND,BE MY DOG'S FRIEND" i.e. she ought to know all my friends old or new and vice versa. and if i have "EXTRA RUNS", i should be able to code them all |

If you like, answer his/her phone. A man that is going to cheat, will have a separate phone for his smallees. So that you will not even suspect him, he'll leave the phone at home, so you can answer it. So, thinking you have no secrets, because you can answer his phone, keep deceiving yourself.
Marriage is much more important and serious than the way most Nigerians are going about it these days.
God help us all!

For this reason a man shall leave his father's house and be joined to his wife, and they shall become ONE!
please the binding factor is not the MOBILE PHONE abeg, if he/she wants to pick each others calls then they should get
themselves a LAND LINE phone.
Marriage should be based on trust not on phone

A man and A woman will there mothers and fathers house both of them will become one flesh.
if any of them is hidding anything from each that means an invalid marriage.

As a matter of principle i don't take my chairlady's call at all! because my hand no clean, so she wont be tempted to answer mine. Some couple of months back, i saw my baby's phone bill and on a particularly date i saw details of over 20 txt msgs to some unknown number and then curiousity took hold of me and i decided to investigate, i flipped through her phonebook but couldnt find the number stored anywhere. she's got the number stored in her head, wetin i go do? i just kept quite because na me find trouble. if i didnt go through her bill i wouldnt have seen that rubbish and until now i'm still hoping to catch her red handed!
But, me think you ought to AUDIT your wife's phone once in a while, u never can be too sure.

I don't see anything wrong in answering ur spouse's call as far as there are no skeletons in ur cupboard. Just like some men are polygamous in mind some women are like that too while some people(both men and women) are not. As far as there's trust and sincerity in the r/ship why not.

much as i don't have issues with my partner picking my calls, it should be said however, that marriage should not completely erode my privacy and personal space. married?yes, but we are still individuals and it is only civil to give each other some "privacy" |

there is nutin bad in ur spouse attending to ur phone. but what is bad is what he or she carries in the mind. which will definately be expressed. as a couple there shld be no secrets except u choose to keep some but its not a good habit.
so in short it all depends on what u have in mind which all depends on the amount of trust u have in ur spouse,
