| You Can Touch Everything… Except The Phone? by Dpsychologist(op): 11:48am On Jan 06 |
You Can Touch Everything… Except the Phone? Let’s be serious for a moment. You can touch each other’s private parts without blinking. You can see each other naked. You can sleep on the same bed, share saliva, sweat, and body heat. But once phone enter the matter… Suddenly it’s “respect my privacy” Ah ah. So the same hand wey dey enter everywhere is now too holy to hold a phone? The same eyes wey don see everything are now not “authorised” to see WhatsApp? Let’s not deceive ourselves. Privacy is important, yes. But this selective privacy is funny. Very funny. If someone can access your body but not your phone, then the phone is hiding more than the body. Simple. Because phones don’t just carry pictures. They carry: • hidden conversations • emotional affairs • exes that “don’t mean anything” • backups of lies That’s why the phone is guarded like national treasure. Truth is, many people don’t fear losing privacy. They fear exposure. If you truly have nothing to hide, a phone should not cause panic attack. You may not give full access 24/7, but the moment your partner touches your phone and your spirit leaves your body… something is wrong. You can’t be naked with someone and still be living double lives. Either you’re in a relationship or you’re in a performance. Choose one. Class dismissed.

Any lady/guy you are dating that struggles their phone with you upon request, call that relationship off. Speaking from experience. |

The phone is a personal property and should be seen as such. |

The same people who are angry a lady called off her marriage to an infidelity apologist, are the same people that say things like this. Depot:Touching of phone didn't break any home. The actions of the phone owner broke the home. |

Privacy should be respected in a relationship. I don't have anything to hide on my phone, I dont even use lock self but that doesn't mean my partner can just access my phone anyhow without asking for permission Some informations/details about some things might not be mature to tell anyone including partner. That's the privacy part of my own phone |

The rate of infidelity in this generation is so alarming. If you can not access his or her phone during relationship, it means the relationship is not yet matured for marriage. The signs you overlook in relationship is the wonders you will see in marriage. #Signs&Wonders |

symbianDON:Then you don't understand the meaning of privacy |
| Re: You Can Touch Everything… Except The Phone? by doncartel: 12:35pm On Jan 06 |
Not necessarily cheating. Phones also contain financial details or transactions which the person may want to keep private. This is my own personal reason for panicking when anybody comes near my phone and I suspect same thing for like half of other people. |
| Re: You Can Touch Everything… Except The Phone? by EverBlazingy2k(m): 12:35pm On Jan 06 |
When a partner get use to hidden his/her phone or keep password regret, such is a cheater. No more trust. No more value. |
| Re: You Can Touch Everything… Except The Phone? by Bimpe29(m): 12:36pm On Jan 06 |
This topic is really controversial. Phone houses a whole lot of data, information, secrets and highly classified information. However, the access and restrictions on it bothers on the attitude, transparency and honesty of the owner's partner. Originally, it shouldn't have been an issue checking each other's only if the context is truthfully mutual, unconditionally transparent and entirely honest. |
| Re: You Can Touch Everything… Except The Phone? by adebayo201: 12:38pm On Jan 06 |
My wife has the password to my phone. I short, she can even reply my chats without the other person knowing that I am not the one. Just build trust with your partner and skeptism and this nonsense will stop. Abeg. |

Dpsychologist:Aside cheating, phone may contain very private discussions with parents, siblings or close friends that are better kept away from new partners... because they can be used to embarrass you in moments of anger, or if you part ways. Phone can also contain legit business or spiritual conversations you're not ready to reveal yet. Imagine Jacob's mum reading conversation between Isaac & Essau. Do not trust in a friend; Do not put your confidence in a companion; Guard the doors of your mouth From her who lies in your bosom. -Micah 7:5 |

brunobaba:Be truthful,is the unclothedness of your partner you have seen and not only seen but entered into not personal property. |
| Re: You Can Touch Everything… Except The Phone? by DeepSight(m): 12:41pm On Jan 06 |
Nah. This is too simplistic. Even with the closest relationships and the closest trust, certain things may be better withheld, even without any betrayal being involved. To use an example, you are planning a surprise party for your beloved and she reads everything. That's just a benevolent easy example. But other serious matters of family, business etc may also be better reserved even with the closest spouse, also timing may just not be right. Respecting the independence of information of one another is a sign that you respect their adulthood and individuality. It's also a sign that you trust them. Many times spouses or partners invade a phone from suspicion and not just innocently. That has destroyed not just relationships but has led to murder. This is not to speak about the things that one may misunderstand without context when reading another person's messages. |
