If you want to read your husband’s text messages and your service provider is Verizon, well you’re in luck. There are a lot of ways to find out his text history. Some of these are fairly simple, such as using Verizon’s family plan to see his texts. Others are a little more complicated, such as installing third-party apps that’ll hack into his account and track his messages that way. While sometimes, such as in the case of a medical emergency, it can be necessary to read your husband’s texts; it is usually best to avoid such underhanded tactics and simply ask him if you can read them. Trust is the key to a successful relationship and if he finds out you went behind his back, it could end badly. 

Methods to Read Your Husband’s Texts on Verizon

The Family Plan 

Verizon’s family plan is supposed to be a convenient option for families to be billed together and for them to avail of discounts. The family plan can also be used to monitor the activity of connected phones within the plan. If you are the owner of the plan, you’ll be able to look at what everyone else within the plan is doing. Verizon will provide you with login with information that only you possess and through it, you’ll be able to go through your husband’s texts. 

Even if you’re not the account holder and it’s in your husband’s name, you can use his account details to see his messages as well. All you’ll need to do is figure out his password and username. 

Third-Party Apps

There are a lot of third-party apps on the app store that’ll allow you to go through your husband’s texts. If you’re not the account holder on the family plan, this might be your best option. Apps like mSpy allow you to monitor your husband’s texts simply if you follow the instructions given. However, something to be wary of with this method is that sometimes these third-party apps can infect your phone with malware. 

Asking 

This is probably the best and the safest way to do it. If you’re not seeking his text messages for some medical reasons, you should just ask him that you want to see them. This way, you won’t be betraying his trust and there’ll be no risk of backlash if he finds out you read his private messages. Just think about it this way, would you like it if someone read your messages? Privacy is important and as his partner, you should respect his right to it. 

Why You Shouldn’t Read Your Partner’s Texts

It Shows a Lack of Trust 

If you’re considering reading your partner’s text messages and it isn’t for a health reason, then you should reconsider if your relationship has trust. You’re reading his messages because you feel he is hiding something, and you don’t feel safe enough to ask him. Even if he isn’t doing anything and your search reveals nothing, relationships cannot survive with a lack of trust. 

Everyone Has a Right to Privacy

Our texts are a part of ourselves. Just like everyone has the right to talk to whomever they please and have that conversation remain private, so do they have the right to text whomever they want. No one wants their privacy invaded, especially not by the person they love and trust the most. Your role should be to protect your partner and make them feel safe and loved, not being part of the problem by breaching their privacy. 

It Shows a Lack of Communication

Communication is key to a successful relationship. If you’re forced to resort to secretive methods to read your partner’s texts and you can’t just ask them if you can do this, it spells danger for your relationship. You should be able to tell your partner anything and not worry about it and vice versa. 

It Could End Your Relationship

If your partner somehow finds out what you did, it could end your relationship. Think about it, if you found out that the person you trusted the most didn’t trust you and was spying on you, would you still want to be with them? Your partner may be so disgusted by your actions that they may just choose to exit the relationship. 

While it may always not be easy, service providers like Verizon have a few options that can allow people to spy on their partner’s text messages. If you suspect something, the best thing is always to just go ahead and ask. That way, there is no danger of you getting caught, and it also makes sure that your partner’s trust and privacy aren’t violated.
