Ugh
. So sad.
I definitely don't know the specifics with your parents. But I'm sort of insinuating people just don't even try anymore. Divorce is more common than herpes and / or cold sores these days. But that's another thread altogether lol.

I'm sorry :/.
It sounds like in some twisted way, he wanted you to catch him. He obviously has issues. And what keeps me moving forward is never forgetting how shitty karma can be.

But most people here are talking about willingly exchanging passwords and such. Is it actually 'snooping' anymore when this is done between two people?

You're way wrong there. At least in my case. I've always (I think,) been the one who wanted to work shit out. Even after catching them fucking me over with some other cu**, I never wanted to give up. I always throw myself into my relationships 364% without holding back. Walking away from them is extremely painful. As I was saying up above, it's like couples don't even try anymore. They just divorce without a second thought and bitch about it for the rest of their lives.
But don't get me wrong - I'm not saying divorce isn't always the wrong thing to do.

Makes complete sense. However I just have trust issues period, thanks to my choices in men and my overall luck in the past. But they don't keep me from getting involved again. I can indeed love yet still have reservations.

I almost used that same exact metaphor in one of my posts lol.
And you're right. This is how I was raised. Little girls are supposed to grow up, get married, have babies and live happily ever after. But it's not that way anymore. Men and women alike have all turned into lazy and selfish pigs. Marriage means nothing sacred anymore. If it ain't working, just divorce. It's just a sign of the times. Call me old fashioned if you will. I call it having morals.
It's almost like you're on both sides of the fence though. You talk about how you won't be with anyone unless you trust them. Yet 'Leave It To Beaver' is passe.

Giving your significant other (especially a woman,) passwords to your personal email accounts is like leaving an opened package of Oreos in front of a 5-year-old lol. They're going to indulge. Fact.
