Husband wont give me password to our netflix account?

I have a day off and we dont have cable or anything. We have netflix on our PS3 and its asking for our password before it will let me watch anything. I texted him and he said I have to wait til he gets home at 3. I have nothing to do til then. House is spotless already or I'd just clean all day. Do I have the right to be a little upset that I have nothing to do and all it would take from him is 1 little freaking word?

    Why are you allowing him to treat you like a child or a house slave? You need to stand up to him and get your marriage on an equal footing or you need to dump this controlling manipulator to the far off curb. This is not normal or correct behaviour.

    You need to go and open your own netflix account and do not give him the password. If he will not give you passwords, get your own accounts. You need some counseling because you are just being a doormat. Why are you gonna just sit there staring at the wall or trying to clean yourself into the grave? Why are you waiting for his permission to have a life? Something is very very wrong in your marriage dear and it will only get worse until you do something about it.

    If you have trust and belief in each other and it has not been an issue I would simply leave it the way it is. My wife uses face book, she uses chat rooms and I know men flirt with her, even flash pictures and videos. We both know what we have in our relationship and none of this is a problem for either of us. I don't invade her privacy or snoop at her computer or the cell phones. I have no reason to do this. We don't have each others accounts or passwords for those accounts. If you go to the same Cell phone plan, one of you end up giving your privacy away, because the master phone on the account is capable of viewing every thing on record of the other cell phone through the Provider of the Cell Phone Service.

    Won't share the password for Netflix? Sounds like he as a few movies in the queue that he doesn't want you to see. If needed, sign up for Netflix yourself...$8.95 a month (I think) and create a new profile on the PS3.

    He probably won't give it to you because it's his universal password that opens up other accounts like his email, his favorite forum, etc. It's a little bit messed up, but let him know how it makes you feel. You are sitting there bored all day. The least he can do is let you watch a movie.

    I would insist on the password. Sounds like hubby may be watching a little porn on the side and doesn't want you knowing about it. Make sure you are standing there when he accesses the account. Tell him you want to see what flix he has been watching. And that if he doesn't allow you access, then neither one of you will have an account and you'll break the PS3.

    Well, yeah..I'd be upset too! Sounds like there is a trust issue going on! I don't give my hubby passwords, but then I'm having an unphysical affair with another man and I have a lot to hide.

    First, why do you say you have nothing to do just because the house is clean? Be creative! Fly a kite! Also, if he has the right to keep his netflix account private, then you certainly have the right to set up your own private netflix account. Maybe that's not monetarily efficient, but it would make him get the point.

    its that ONE LITTLE WORD thats going to get him in a WHOOOLE lotta trouble. I would INSIST ON STANDING right next to him when he comes home and types that password . Then sit there and go in his account and see what hes been hiding .

    AND when hes at work tomorrow , (WATCH him tonight ) . Go on the computer , go to TOOLS , under tools will be INTERNET OPTIONS , THEN look for history . click to see his browsing history . or the history button may be under your favorites (upper tool bar ) depending on your computer . just click history when you find it and it will show you all the sites hes visited .

    sounds like hubby has a little porn in his closet .

    did he give a reason for not giving you the password? I can't think of a justifiable reason not to. So yeah, I'd say you have the right to be upset.

    Yes, I'd be very upset. and i'd start wondering what he's trying to hide on the netflix account since he won't let you get on.
