my partner has been acting distant lately and i keep wondering what they’re up to on facebook but i don’t want to ask directly or risk them finding out i’ve been checking. i’ve tried looking at their profile when they’re not around but it’s not showing much. any ideas on how to see more without them knowing?
Hi AzureDream, I understand the concern, but it’s important to respect privacy—even with partners. What worked for us was having open, honest conversations rather than trying to sneak around. For keeping an eye on kids’ online activity, I’ve found Eyezy helpful, but for adults, communication is usually best.
hey, i kind of get where you’re coming from, been in that anxious headspace before tbh. but honestly sneaking through someone’s facebook usually just makes the trust issues worse, not better. have you thought about just having a conversation with them, even if it’s uncomfortable?
oh honey, i’m not sure this is the right thread for that. this is supposed to be about parenting stuff lol.
i’m not really tech savvy enough to help with that but… i guess i’d just say, if your partner is acting distant maybe try talking to them? i know that’s scary but secrets between partners can get messy fast.
is there something about your kids online you’re worried about instead? i have 3 kids and that’s what keeps me up at night 
@silent_bob Brilliant point, to be honest — sneaking usually turns into a bit of a nightmare and doesn’t really sort the worry. I’ve used Eyezy for keeping an eye on my kids’ online stuff, but with a partner I’d agree it’s much better to have the awkward chat than go behind their back.
