    Personally anyone that says they completley trust their partner 100% must be lying i believe there is always a niggling doubt

    Only if that person has trust issues.

    I trust my wife 100%. I'm not lying. There is no niggling doubt.

    I would reverse the OPs question and say how would you feel if your partner hired a private detective to follow you?

    Wow, that's really quite a sad thing to say. I hope that your bitterness isn't a result of personal experience but I suppose it must come from somewhere...

    I trust my partner totally, and he trusts me. We don't have a problem with each other reading texts/looking at each others facebook etc. I know his passwords and he knows mine. While we may tell each other small white lies from time to time if we ask each other to say something "honestly" we always fess up and tell the truth.

    If you don't have complete trust and honesty in a relationship, I personally don't see it working out. It's about respect for each other really

    If you get to the stage where you'd consider hiring a PI, it's defiantly time to walk away

    No i am not bitter i am just asking a question. Why is it when you ask a question on a forum the claws come out?

    Because you've essentially accused people who are in healthy relationships of being delusional and said they're more likely to be cheated on? No?

    I am not being unfaithful so if my other half had me followed by a private detective it wouldn't bother me as i have nothing to hide.

    No claws, the vet trimmed them last week :D

    Usually when people ask a question there's a reason behind it and your attitude to trust within relationships does seem to be less than ideal.

    But I'm glad you're not bitter!

    I suppose if a couple were married and one of them had their suspicions, but needed legal proof that the other person was committing adultery then maybe..

    What is your opinion?

    My opinion is that you're suffering with a touch of Paranoid Personality Disorder.
    Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear

    Hire a Private Investigator to see what your other half was up to?
    You're on a money saving site. No I wouldn't hire someone, I'd do the snooping myself!

    But I do trust my boyfriend 100% and I'm not lying.

    Although, I don't trust him to tidy the living room when I've asked him to... or to bring only healthy food home from the supermarket... or to get up promptly in the morning... or to remember to buy his sister a birthday card... ;)
