Do you feel like you should have the right to know EVERY single aspect of your mates life?

Answer 1

No, absolutely not. What happened in the past is not important as long as it has no direct bearing on the here and now. I know she has her secrets, just as I have mine. There are also aspects of my current life that she is not privy to, and I dont go prying into her affairs either.

A relationship does not work without trust

Answer 2

You do have the right to know everything. The fact is do you want to put yourself in a position were you get bothered or jealous for sth that happend in the past and has nothing to do with you. If you get an answer you don't like you might ruin your relationship or even worse you are going to be thinking of it the whole time. For example, if your mate did sth bad and doesn't involve you, but involves a past relationship, you are going to be jealous if you get to think of it, ask more questions, and you wont be able to get this out of your head. I'm talking of a personal experience.. So, do you want to know everything?

Answer 3

No, I've been married for 21 years & I don't need to know every aspect of his life. The main thing is if he's hiding something from me that would affect me I want to know what it is. I don't need to know his deepest, darkest feelings & thoughts. Everybody has to keep a part of themselves only for themselves.

Answer 4

the fact is if u and ur partner has trust on each other..friendly,caring,understanding then there is no need to use the word "right to know.."
instead if there is a true understanding both will share every aspects of there life..

Answer 5

Only if it has an effect on our relationship now.
I think you should know what he wants to tell you about his past and anything that would or could cause and issue in your lives together now.
If it does not effect the relationship and he does not want to share then I do not see a problem.
The longer you are together, the more you become friends too will lead to him trusting you more and maybe opening up and telling you his past.
You can ask about it, but don't get angry if he does not want to talk unless it involves your relationship together now.

be cool...

Answer 6

If you mean the past, then the past is the past and thats that. But if you mean the present, then it's not a right but a privilege. You should act in a way where your partner will want to share it with you

Answer 7

I guess ,it is very normal if you do care about ur mate so much.Sometimes there are always good to be curious about your mate,but sometimes,if it is too much,It is not good at all.So I do sometimes.But I don't ask too much,if he is willing to tell me ,I am ready to hear all about it,if not ,there is no necessary to know everything.

Answer 8

No
Obviously there was life before me and thats none of my business.
A relationship where you must know everything is like being under arrest.
You're supposed to be partners not warden and prisioner.

Answer 9

i would like to think i know more about my partner than anyone else does, and im pretty sure i do.
but everyone has a right to their privacy no matter how close they are to someone.
i personally tell my partner everything, but hes quite a private person in himself and i respect that.
i know that if he feels he has to tell me something he will.

Answer 10

no. i trust him to not do anything that would endanger him or myself. if he wants to tell me something or if there is a bit of information that i feel it is important for me to know, it is his decision to tell me. i think that without some sort of trust, the relationship is futile. if you need to know everything, then you obviously dont have enough trust in your mate. it should be that they want to tell you everything, not that you are grilling them for the information.
