Invasion of Privacy

Ladies, STOP invading your partner's life. The number of posts I see on here about women snooping is APPALLING. If you don't trust your partner, ask him about what's bothering you. If he isn't willing work to restablish trust, justified or not....leave. If you suspect he's cheating and he dosent willingly turn over the phone on the spot, he's cheating. 
 
My ex didn't trust me because of his ex. She cheated on him left and right and he didn't trust me because of her. But he never talked to me about it. He snuck around and virtually raped me. He regularly went through my phone and my Facebook and my email and ended up cloning my hard drive and STEALING years of my life from way before I met him. He STOLE personal emails I sent old loves years ago. He STOLE private conversations I had with friends and family. He STOLE private photos from intimate moments of my life. He STOLE me sense of safety. 
 
I search Instagram and Facebook every day now hoping that he isn't still vengeful after I broke up with him and he hasn't posted my photos.
 
I scroll through my email everyday praying he hasn't sent a mass note to my entire family with the filthy words I wrote an ex 5 years ago.
 
I pray every day he doesn't reveal to my parents I had an abortion. 
 
An open (verbally) relationship is something you earn. It's done together. It's built together. It's nourished together. When you take it without asking, you're stealing. 
 
Even if you were "justified" in doing it, snooping is wrong. And it leaves people feeling so vulnerable. I feel so naked. And I didn't deserve it.
 
I deserved to have private moments from before I ever knew my ex existed.
