Published on July 9, 2019, a recent argument between a friend and the author sparked a discussion about privacy in relationships.

Should a spouse know their partner's PIN number and phone passwords, citing trust as the reason? The author argues that trust is beautiful, but it doesn't mean sharing sensitive information like passwords.

Partnerships are about openness and understanding, not about sharing every detail. It's okay to keep some things private, like phone and PIN information, if it makes one comfortable.

According to the author, it would be more suspicious if a partner insisted that PINs and passwords were a deal-breaker.
