[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"So you've been doing a lot of IMing tonight. I noticed that every time I walk by, you hit the alt tab so the IM screen changes, as if you don't want me to see what you're typing.  What's up with that, because [b]my expectation is that you'd be comfortable IMing with me sitting right next to you. Are you[/b]?"

See where it goes.

Marriage is about transparency. [/quote]

I guess I disagree with that.  While I don't IM with colleagues at work I wouldn't want my spouse to see, for example, my texts with my sister or my mom nor do I think my spouse has a right to see them.[/quote]

I don't think your spouse needs to see or read them, but actively hiding something is different than a basic expectation of privacy. I don't want me SO to be reading my conversations, but if he saw a snippet or a piece of one while walking by or sitting next to me it wouldn't cause me to freak and hide my phone. That is suspicious behavior like I have something to hide. [/quote]

I agree with respect to your point and how it relates to the OP's post but I was responding specifically to the poster above me (see in bold).[/quote]
