Yes, snooping on your man's phone is wrong

Photo: Courtesy

Just the other month, a close friend decided to install an application in her husband's phone that would give her access to every detail in that phone. The calls, messages and even photos! She confessed to me that she suspected that he was cheating and so wanted to confirm her suspicions. When she first told me what she had done, I just stared at her for minutes as though she was something a cat had just brought into the house. Why ooh why do we always want to change the scripts of our lives? Even if God had planned to take you home quietly in your sleep, you force Him to change the script and make it a serious heart attack.

Someone once told us that what we do not know will not hurt us. Whoever it was must have been a great 'snooper' before he came up with the line. The best way to die a slow and painful death in this era is to snoop on your partner's mobile phone. Like I always say, not having a medical cover has taught me to always mind my own business. Imagine if I snooped on his phone and met things that would make me trip and fall! Having in mind the ground at Komayole is four times likely to break your leg than the ground at Kitusuru. That would only mean one thing, staying at home and missing work as I massage my broken leg with warm water. Also keep in mind that where I work, the more you miss work the more your salary is deducted. Amadioha forbid now!
