Is it wrong to want a partners social media password to confirm infidelity? (Please read)

I’m pretty sure of the kinds of responses I’ll get anyway, however.... I do know that people are often very, VERY curious.

Not “curious” simply to be nosey but curious for that extra confirmation. Sometimes tangible evidence is necessary, especially when someone is continuously insulting your intelligence and gaslighting you to believe that what you’re saying and accusing them of just isn’t true.

[b]Edit;
I have all reasons to believe he’s doing wrong because he’s very flirtatious with women even in my face, so I can imagine in private. I have all reasons to be suspicious.
He turns his phone face-down when we are together, if we are sleep together and I wake up and he’s using his phone, he quickly x’s out whatever he’s looking at....[/b]

I know the saying goes “if there’s no trust , it’s over already” and that itself is usually obvious at that point...however....

Is it wrong to want access to a partners social media messages to help you walk away for good?

I’m the kind of person that would walk away as soon as I see a message DM confirming his infidelity.

Sometimes we stay because we don’t have proof and often times we have to “believe” their word. But what if someone’s word just isn’t good enough because their actions don’t quite align?

I admit, I am that person guilty of wanting to acquire a Instagram password because I know it’s a gold mine. Everything he’s ever lied to me about is in that inbox...

I don't think it's wrong of you to want it. But if he is cheating I doubt he'd give you it, and then what?

What's wrong about it is subjecting yourself to being held in limbo by someone you don't know whether you can trust or not.

Of course the converse is true as well. You might be able to find his password without his cooperation but what then if you find no evidence of cheating? You'd feel bad for not trusting him and he'd be perfectly justified in looking for someone else who did.

@ThePerfectUsername I agree with you but I’m pretty sure he’s cheating, even if he’s flirting and leading his way into it, it’s there in those messages. I wouldn’t feel the need to want to have his password if there was literally no reason. A woman’s intuition is a beautiful thing, and when there’s nothing going on, we know. But when something is wrong, we feel it. If we can’t see it? That’s the need for tangible evidence.

The evidence would come out soon enough anyway if your intuition is right and you just left him based on that. We don't always get proof of wrongdoing. Sometimes all we can do is act on the way a person make us feel. If they make us feel good we stay, if they make us feel bad we leave. @Mrowe718
