I was in exactly the same situation a few years back. What I did was to take a few 'personal' shots of myself with said camera, and when she had it developed and asked for a double set of prints it was highly amusing when she went to pick the prints up. The look on the shop girls face was a sight to behold!

gradu8 agony auntthank you for your input! I found the camera in a box around some other suspicious things, ( sex toys). I must admit, I do have trust issues. I have decided not to develop the pictures, because if it is something incriminating, that would mean a break up and I dont want to lose him. I think I am better off not knowing. I may find a way to tell him I found it and ask him if he wants me to have it developed, but again, maybe I am better off not knowing.

auntyluuurve agony auntif u are ok with doing sneaky things, then yes. to be honest with u, do u really think if theres gonna be something naughty on there or something u shouldnt see if its on a film which needs to be developed? if he was doing something naughty, it would be on a digital because chemists or photoshops wont develop rude pics! its illegal (i think). so if u are prepared to hide this film and the pictures then do it, if ur conscience will allow. otherwise, what u could do is place it under a bed or something and reach down there when hes around pretending to have lost something and say "oh, whats this? oh its a film. lets get it developed!" and watch for his reaction.

Mr Raindog agony auntI would say no. You could drop it off to have it developed and tell him that you did so, but not develop with the intentions of snooping. Also, it's possible that it's not hidden but just forgotten. In my opinion, it would be like reading someone's diary.

LethalInjection-x agony auntI know someone who made that mistake once. It was a big mistake and caused the relationship to break down.

If you're REALLY curious about what's on the film, why don't you ask if he needs anything developed? Tell him you're taking a few old films to the developers and wondered if he wanted anything developed? If he doesn't mention anything, I can understand you feeling frustrated about it.. but developing it behind his back could kill trust if he found out later.

Do you trust him? If you want to develop a film found "hidden", that comes across to me that you might not trust him as much as you'd like to, maybe you should confront that problem?
