The book of questions Love and Sex.

SO! HA! this book used to get me into so much trouble! It was like playing the game Scruples LOL ...

Okay SO the question is!

If your lover kept a private journal that was easily accessible, under what circumstances might you read it without permission?

For example, what if your relationship were on the rocks and you were confused about your partner's feelings?

End of Question.

whooo hooo!

Okay... when I was younger, I was a HUGE snoop. I'da read it. Permission or not.

Now that I'm older, and we can all hope wiser :) and less nosey ... I'd say, I wouldn't read it because while I'd really want to work things out, I also know that people write things out to sift through how they feel. So while they were writing they were gaining emotional clarity and what's written may not be the end result of how they feel.

So, I wouldn't read it, because it could be misleading.

HA! GOOD ANSWER! LOL! If I do say so myself.

and I do!

BONUS QUESTION: that I just made up.

Once they passed away would you read it then? Why or why not?

My response, I think... I'd have to burn it. For the reasons specified above. Imagine if I read something written in anger on some date, that wasn't "really" meant, and they were clearing their head, and now they are gone.

I'd have to live with that?

I'd say build a big fat fire, and burn that sucker.

Agh...

DEVILS ADVOCATE! What if there might be really nice things about you and in your grief! you'd like to see how they felt?

uh oh...

OKAY someone else's turn to answer it!
