Do You Snoop On Your Partner’s Phone?
I’ve been married for a while. I dated my wife before that, for a few years. So, I have a pretty hefty amount of trust in her and our relationship.
I don’t second guess or feel insecure if she says she is going to go out with a friend, and I’m not one to go through her purse to look for incriminating evidence.
However, with technology being at our fingertips everywhere we turn, it’s hard not to snoop just a little.
I’m talking about the cell phone. And I know I’m not alone! Now, I’m not saying I search her phone for hours, reading every text and email exchange. But, every now and again when a notification pops up, I might take a glance to see who it is or see what the conversation is about. And as I said….I know I’m not alone!
There was a recent survey done that found that 82% of Americans admit to looking at another person’s device and that the other person is typically a romantic partner or an ex. Only 10% of those in the survey said they’ve never looked at another person’s device – and I don’t believe them!
The survey found that women are more likely to snoop than men. But maybe any snooper has a good reason. Get this – 53% say they’ve found something that was incriminating when going through their partner’s phone. And 70% of those said they found evidence of cheating or flirting!
Now, I’m not saying you should be reading your partner’s messages and texts all the time, but if you do, just know,, that you’re not alone. And you could very well be saving yourself from being blindsided in the future.
Then again, if you don’t have trust in your relationship, what do you have????? I gotta go change my phone password.
5 New Car Features People Struggle With The Most
Nowadays, it seems like car manufactures and designers are putting more and more features in new cars. Sometimes, it’s to make the car sleeker in appearance or give the car or give the driver more benefits with their vehicle. Many drivers can become intimidated or overwhelmed by the technology of cars. From cruise control and assisted parking to Bluetooth connection and more.
In a poll by SWNSDigital.com, they found the top new car features people struggle with the most. They gathered their data by polling 500 car owners with vehicles less than two years old. The results showed 20 pieces of technology in a car that “baffle modern car owners.”
According to the poll, 68 percent of the “struggle to get to grips with everything.” While 40 percent don’t believe they’re using their car to its full potential. Also found in the research, is that it took about six months for 55 percent to discover their car came with certain features.
Dr Martha Newson, cognitive psychologist who facilitated the consumer study said they proved that over half of drivers are missing out on the full experience of their vehicle. “With any car purchase being one of life’s bigger spends, drivers should take more time understanding the tech available at their fingertips, so they don’t miss out on safer, more comfortable and more pleasurable experiences, every time they get in the car,” said Newson.
The feature that most people feel that they aren’t using happens to be cruise control. It’s been around for quite some time. Surprisingly, at the bottom of the list is blind-spot alert, massage seats, and 360-degree cameras. Some may find features like a heated steering wheel, remote engine start, and climate control easy.
