Question Trust & Technology

I visit a number of forums, a few of which are "women's" forums, and I am quite surprised at the number of women who will secretly go through their significant other's (whether it be boyfriend or husband) cellphone call logs and/or email.

My confusion is based on TRUST...

1) If you have so little trust in someone that you have to stealthily go through call logs and email w/out them knowing, why would you remain with them?
2) Trust is a 2 way street - if you are breaking your s/o's trust by sneaking into his private communications, why should he trust you?
3) Why bother with a relationship that appears to be based on DISTRUST?

This is out of curiosity. I'm sure there are circumstances that I'm not understanding. I simply cannot see myself doing this and would like to know what drives this behavior.

I am really interested in seeing everyone's feedback!

Thanks!
