if your friend left his/hers personal diary at your house would you read it ?

Question

would you read your friends personal diary if he/her left it behind and went home ?

Answer 1

it would take a lot of effort not to since i'm very curious but i'd respect his privacy and not read it. had it been anyone els's diary, i would have probably taken an innocent peek, but we're talking about best friend here so no.

Answer 2

Well the truth is , you should never read anything about someone , private things, imagine if they wrote something personal ,

it could be about , their health feeling s , feelings for someone, even if it the person whos reading it and it was a load of hate, still shouldnt read,

but , if you read someones diary , you have to make a promise to yourself that you read it, your never going to tell them that you read it , and never tell anyone else,

I had a really good freind at college, and she had a real nice diary
so I said to her if I could look at it, and she said no, and while she werent looking , I quickly read what she wrote, and it had that she smoked , I got shocked, and hated these two people , understandablly but never really told me that she hated them that much ,she turned her head and I quickly shut the diary and she saw, and goes did you read, I go no, and thank god she believed me, but I never , ever asked , if she smoked , and I knew it, even as I friend I felt like telling her she shouldnt but I didnt, because I shouldnt be reading her personal life in the beginning ,

so they are many reason why you shoulnt read , because you might find out about something , and it can be quite hard then to say to them , if you do say to someone oh I read your diary you lose your trust for good in that person , thats why I said before never even mention you read it, unless your read it and tell them and break up the friendship for good,

my sister gave me her diary to keep , because she got married , and had personal things , I read it then , but never said to her any of the things that were in their , and I knew why she gave it to me , as it had some guys that she liked written on it, so her husband wouldnt know, about it because she was married now , so gave the diary to me, and me never , ever write persona things about my life , just keep them in the mind , so actually I do that, I never wirte about personal things , personal life is a secret a must be kept a secret its a moment which you keep private for no one else to know about your real self

Answer 3

Absolutely not. That is completely wrong. Privacy is an important human right. I respect my friends human rights and would not violate them in this way.

If I read the diary I would feel like a treachorous and evil person for the rest of my life.

Answer 4

Was it left intentionally? You never know. If you want to instill trust with that person, return it and say "I found this, but I did not think it appropriate to read it". Then you will have gained a friend instead of lost one.

Answer 5

No I would not. I would not want to invade my friend's privacy, or risk the possibility of losing my friend by reading their diary.

Answer 6

Absolutely no way would I ever do that, that is the lowest of the low, its horrible, invasive and hurtful, somethings are just too personal to share with even your closest friend.

Answer 7

Nooooooooooooooooooooope

Answer 8

I once read my daughters diary when she was depressed and discovered she was suicidal. So yes if you are very very concerned, no if its just curiosity.

Answer 9

i have to say that I would read it. I also would probably end up telling on myself by sticking my foot in my mouth to that person so i'd have to tell them right off that I read it. Ofcourse I'd swear that I'd never tell a soul about what was in it---and I wouldn't.

Answer 10

I know this sounds really bad, but I probably would - I'm very nosy!! Everybody put your diary's AWAY!!
