My girlfriend wants me to give her the password to my email. She says that if I do not, that means I have something to hide. Would you give it to your significant other?
Most people have more than one email. Need I say more?
My GF has my PW simply because I trust her. She never asked for it. I just gave it to her one day while we were working on the computer. We were looking for something and I thought I had it in my e-mail so I told her to pull it up...
If your girl is making a big deal about it then she has real trust issues that are only going to make your lives worse. Do you have her password?

I wouldn't even be diplomatic about it when telling her to blow it out her ass. What an asinine request. There is a difference between having nothing to hide and not having any privacy.
You may want to seriously consider continuing a relationship with a moron like this, although also reflect upon whether you may have initiated the suspicion.
Hard to say. I made my H's email account and set his password for him years ago when we got our first computer. We actually shared an email account at first. My parents still share one email account and I set it up for them a few years back. Different strokes...but it does seem like the younger you are the more privacy you expect (along with individual bank account and keeping finances seperate). Marriage is different now.
I agree with the majority of the posters....
I feel email is personal, it does not mean I m doing anything wrong it just means I have a right to privacy as does my SO...
She sounds very insecure, passive agressive and controlling...
I would tell her no and why and be done with it...
She basically sounds like my ex-wife. I'm with everyone else here that says don't do it. I wouldn't even give my mom my password to my email. Like other posters have said, it is private.
I wouldn't give it to her. I DO know my so's passwords and he knows mine. But we are in a long-term (14 yrs) committed relationship. I also have his power of attorney to access all his financial accounts and even to sell or mortgage the house. He GAVE that authority to me. I NEVER asked. Nor would I have asked. And THAT is the issue you are dealing with. She doesn't trust you and her comment about you having something to hide is intended to make you feel guilty so that you will give her your password. I'd make it very clear to her that her lack of trust in you is HER problem and if she doesn't trust you, then you should not be in the relationship.
I still wouldn't give it to her even if she has reason to be suspicious of your behavior. Because in that case, you aren't in a committed relationship.
Ditto.
