I just wanted to mention that I’ve been looking into “snooping” and based on what I read, it can be a pathology. Also, if one has been hurt by someone else’s dishonesty or disloyalty (I have), one might do it for self-protection when they have a sense that the other person isn’t what they purport to be (it’s always nagging at me), so I don’t have to be vulnerable. They say the pain of worry and fretting about the problem can be more painful than getting actual proof.

Some good advice provided was that everything I need to know is within me and that I should trust my intuition and gut feelings when I start to feel the need to know what’s going on. I like the idea of turning within to listen to my inner voice – something I ALWAYS ignore and don’t know how to trust because I often choose to to suffer in denial.

Anyway, never thought I was a snoop, but now I know my tendencies and putting a name on it might help me to be more mindful. Thanks for listening!
