Morality Question - Please Help

Hi all,

This is a quick question. Some of you have read my posts and know my story, but the gist of my post now is this: My ex and I broke up recently, and I happen to know the code to his cell phone voicemail. I feel really bad that I know it and don't want the temptation to do anything wrong anymore like check it, so what I did was call up his cellular company and tell them anonymously that I know his code has been compromised and can they please contact him and tell him so he'll change it. Was this a good thing to do??

Yes. As tempting as it is to do something like that, it's always better not to because you will then seem like the crazy one. You should be proud of yourself for doing the right thing, because it's better to just be rid of him then to keep yourself connected with him in any way.

I think you did the right thing. You got rid of your temptation, which is the best thing you could have done.

Congrats on being strong enough to do that!
