Some people go about checking the phones of their partners for texts and calls. They want to monitor and know who their partner is calling and texting. Do you think it is right for a person to check his or her partner's phone for calls and text messages?

Checking someone's phone without consent shows a lack of respect and can irreparably damage the foundation of the relationship. I believe partners should respect each other's personal devices and have the maturity to discuss issues directly.

I think this is unethical. You are intruding the privacy of your partner. I would be very angry if my partner is doing this to me. It shows lack of respect and trust.

As much as possible, a partner should not do this. They need to trust each other. In this sense, there is no need to do it. For me, it is fine if my partner does this.

I believe this is completely wrong. Everyone is entitled to their private lives even when they are dating. Doing this is an invasion of their privacy.

I agree. It is really a turn off for anyone to check the phone's of a partner, especially if they are not married yet.

It means you do not trust your partner, trust is something that needs to be part of the relationship. Then again if one of the partners decides to cheat, then they have broken that trust as well.

Trust in your partner is essential for a healthy relationship. Constantly checking your partner's phone because of a lack of confidence can damage the relationship and may not last long.
