Dear Boyfriend, Will You Give Me Your Password?

Dear Boyfriend,

Will you give me the password to your e-mail account? Yes, I'm having a hard time keeping up with all five of my e-mail accounts, but still, I'd like to check up on yours - every now and then. Although I'll probably not even have the time to do so, I'd like to know that if I were to wake up one morning feeling a little unsafe or unsure about our relationship... and I were to feel compelled to check up on your e-mail account, I would have the access to do so.

Dear Boyfriend,

Will you give me the password to your phone? I promise I won't reply any text message - no matter how questionable I might find it. I just want to know who is texting you and what she is writing. I'm curious about who is calling you and how long you spend talking to her. I won't pick up your calls - unless you're not there and I feel it necessary to take the calls. If that happens, I promise not to be rude. I have no intention to listen to your voicemail, but I hope you won't mind if I become curious enough to do so.

Dear Boyfriend,

Will you give me the pin to your bank account? I don't want to withdraw your money. I don't want to steal from you. It'll just make me feel closer to you, safer with you, and more intimate with you . I'll feel as though I know another part of you. Men hardly share their financial truths, right? Share yours with me; I just want to know, that's all. If I see that you spent a ridiculous amount of money at Victoria's Secret - even though I never received any gift(s) from Victoria's Secret - I would gulp and believe you spent it all on your sister.


Dear Boyfriend,

Will you give me the password to your Facebook account? Each time I check your profile and see that you have recently become friends with one girl or the other, I cannot help but wonder who she is and what she wants from you. I find myself wondering what you have in your inbox. Who sends you mails via facebook? What does she write to you? I'd like to know. I'm not one of those girlfriends. I won't go replying your e-mails. But I'd like to know who is e-mailing you and why.


Dear Boyfriend, will you give me your password?

*********************************************

Now, before you all start including Mr. Shoes in your prayer requests and asking Baba God to deliver him from the paranoid Vera, I should clarify that what you read above isn't about me ... and is especially not about Mr. Shoes. It's about what we'll be discussing on Saturday on Verastically Speakin.' We're calling it Password Keeper. Tell me: would you share your password(s) with your significant other? The show will air LIVE on Saturday, October 31st 2009 - 10:00am U.S. EST / 3:00pm GMT/Nigerian time. Join us. But before you do, please vote in the poll. It's on the top of the right sidebar. Thank you, darlings.

Listen to the show LIVE on Saturday HERE

******************************************

One more thing...I'd like to think that I have mentioned it before, but perhaps, I have not mentioned it enough: For every Verastically Speakin' show, I need a co-host. The list of shows on the left sidebar is there to let everyone know what's coming up and what I need a co-host for. If the show has been scheduled and there's no name listed as the co-host, it means I need one. If the show has not yet been scheduled [one of those ones listed below the scheduled shows] but you think you'd like to co-host it, let me know, so we can work something out asap. Lastly, I welcome show ideas .... thank you.

Wait am I really first? Lol but yeah very BIG NO NO @ givin out passwords..
There has to be Trust.

TRYBES said...

Like they say..curiousity kills the cat..

Trust me,the moment you have all these passwords,the next thing that sets in is insecurity..dont think you'd wanna go that route..

NaijaScorpio said...

I'm so sad i haven't been able to listen to ur show since august. Will they all still be available in dec? I might have to do a marathon.

bArOquE said...

what kind of password sharing business is that? some things are personal like that & its best it stays that way

justjoxy said...

It'll be one very interesting show I'm sure.

histreasure said...

i laughed out loud reading this post..
truth be told, the day my man gave me his ATM card with the PIN cos he couldn't go out,my trust in him more like quadrupled.(He had given me his yahoo mailbox password b4 then)

Then we got married and right now,i have all his passwords,including facebook and he has mine.

i guess maybe it's because we are married(infact,i don't even rem d PINS and have to ask him again each time)

i would then say it depends on the relationship and the level of trust

kay9 said...

Give you my password?? Very funny! Sorry, babe, 'no' can do.

mizchif said...

This your poll doesn't have enough options joo.
I"m looking foward to Kpakpa and Ray co-hosting, infact that's the only reason i'm listening sef, because truth be told the topic does'nt really interest me, but make we dey look ;-)

I will be looking forward to the show. They say that curiousity killed the cat. Once some doors are opened, no closing them again.

Anoda Phase said...

well Vera, I'm not sure about the boyfriend/girlfriend stage, but my hubby and I definitely have each other's passwords and PINS for EVERYTHING...I think it's another level of trust, plus we can help each other check certain things if one party is without internet access...

AliceDCL said...

actually my bf and i have each others passwords..for everything, atm, facebooks, yahoo, gmail, laptops, phones...funny if i forget i always know he will remember...i store my PUK on his fone and he stores his on mine in case we lock our fone mistakenly...
we are going on 5yrs together this january and we've never been stronger...

Anonymous said...

Those kind of details will depend on the stage of the relationship i guess...

musco said...

hotgirl said...

Anyway, thats life

Remi, United Kingdom said...

I will share with my husband, but with a boyfriend.. nope...

One day with the time difference, I will listen to the show oh.
Have a great weekend luvx

Ms. 'dufa said...

LWKMD...I totally agree with his treasure, but but at the same time, you might find somethings you really don't want to know. It'd take a high level of trust for you to be totally comfortable and secure, and take his word for it.
I think I'd rather have my husband's password than my boyfriend's/

chayomao said...

there shld be some form of trust in the relationship
If ur significant otehr trusts u enuf, he/she will hand over the passwords without ur asking.

my two cents
