my friend slept over at my house, and we both slept in my room. i have a computer in my room, and i told her that she could go on my computer if she woke up before me, which she did. when i woke up, i was still in bed and i just opened my eyes, but i didnt move or anything. i could see from where i was on my bed that she was going through my computer and looking at all of my things. i could see that she was looking through one of my word documents. then when i said something, i sounded tired and she closed the document immediately and i could see she was hoping that i hadn't seen her looking through my things. i know that i shouldve said something but i didnt, and i completely regret that now, because it shocked me that she would do something like that.

so my question is...should i just try to forget about this happening? and also, is it just me or is it wrong for someone to look around someone elses computer without permission, even if they are(somewhat) a good friend?

thx a lot. (link)
it's not wrong for you to think that - everyone has their own personal things that they save, whether it's conversations with other people, or private journal entries or whatever. she knew it was wrong for her to do that because she obviously didn't want to get caught. maybe for this time, it's better not to confront her. i only say this for a couple reasons: saying something now will do nothing beneficial for either of you - you may get it off your chest, but if she apologizes, that doesn't save her from doing it again or from seeing the things that she did see. although you do need to let her know somehow. the next time you invite her over, maybe plan it this time, either when you wake up and see her doing it, confront her then and there. or, you could plant something private in there that's fake, and see if she reads it. she'll mention it somehow or find a way to ask you about it if she did. hope that helps
