Boyfriend won't give me the cable password

[Anonymous]

My long distance boyfriend won't give me the cable password so I can watch the news from where I am. I could access it from my phone. I don't have a tv at my apartment. He knows I'm nervous about the hurricane weather as I live in Georgia and we will most likely be affected. He told me to sign up for a free trial with sling. I did this but they don't give live coverage. Even if there wasn't a hurricane outside what's the big deal about giving me the password? I never really asked him for this because I usually don't watch tv unless I am with him. My apartment actually includes cable in the rent but you must have a fancy smart tv in order for it to work. I'm also finishing school and moving out of state in less than a month. I'm not going to buy a new tv right now. I wouldn't be able to take it with me. I don't know if he's busy or just being a jackass.

Sounds like he is being a jackass, sorry OP. Good luck in the hurricane.

He sounds like a petulant loser. Cut your losses.

You want to steal and he has morals. Good dude. Should drop you.

What? How is this stealing? You're allowed to have access from an app. He doesn't use app access.

Are you sure he is your boyfriend? There are plenty free sources to watch news.
He might have a password he doesn't want you to know, so he would need to change it first, which might be annoying.

Devil's advocate- he probably reuses passwords. Ask him to create a profile for you on the cable account with your own password or ask if he'd be open to changing the pw to one he'd be willing to share with you. I'd put money on this being an issue because this is the password he uses for a bunch of things.

Damn. I STILL use my ex's passwords for everything, and he hasn't changed it yet. Because he was a good dude. Your guy sounds like a jerk

First of all I'm not excusing what he did, I think that with something so minor, it's the absolute least he can do to send you it. So for me this would be a major red flag.


But for your own sake so you don't have to worry- google "fox news livestream" or whatever and there will be plenty of links and you can just stream them through various streaming services.

But don't waste your time with this bozo.

CNN put something on Twitter about not needing cable authentication to watch live storm coverage

He doesn't want you to see something in the history like maybe some odd porn.

They have this thing called the internet. Google live storm coverage.

You'll get coddled here because you're a woman and most posters will tell you you're bf is a big meanie. They are wrong.

Grow up!

Can't stand women like you.
