QUESTION: My husband and I met two years ago and I thought
we had great relationship. But last weekend I was alone and discovered his
diary. I was shocked to find he writes about our love life in detail and is
sometimes critical of ‘dull’ sex. Should I confront him?
Answer: It’s hard
to decide just who’s the worst behaved here: your graceless man for
writing about your sexual encounters or you for reading his private diary.
You are quite old enough
to know that no good ever comes of reading someone else’s journal and, indeed,
that it’s a breach of trust.
If you confront your man
about the diary, he may never trust you again. I mean, where will your snooping
end? How would you feel if he read your texts? Let’s have some mutual
honesty here. Has there never been one occasion when you thought
sex was a bit below par?
