A long time ago we shared each others facebook passwords but neither of us goes on the others account (well he says he doesn't).The other week a friend of mine was over at my place and asked me about a friend of his who she likes. I tried to log into his account to access his friend's page so I could show her photos of the guy. I couldn't log in and it looks like my boyfriend changed his password a week or so ago.I don't want to ask him about this because I don't need his password and I don't need to go into his account. This was a one off to show my friend his friend's photos.What I want to know is should I be worried that he's changed his password?Nothing else has been different in the relationship. He leaves his phone with me and even his computer when I'm over at his.

And this is why people shouldn't share passwords. There is a common misconception that you're required to share everything in a relationship, down to the last detail. In my opinion, not so. You are allowed a degree of privacy to talk to friends about things. I don't think you need to worry. He leaves everything with you anyway, and it seems like you have a good relationship anyway.

 Nothing to be worried about! This whole obsession with sharing passwords is just wrong anyway, there needs to be some element of privacy in all relationships so you can both keep your sanity!
You can see his facebook page anyway because you will be his friend on facebook presumably, therefore there is nothing you cant see apart from his private messages. Now if he leaves his phone with you and is happy for you to see his texts, there is no way he would be using his private facebook messaging for anything weird either.
Dont worry - you clearly have a great relationship so no need to get worked up about facebook! Just appreciate that everyone needs their own little bit of privacy in a relationship, sharing absolutely everything is not healthy or normal and will only lead to problems!
I hope this helps and good luck!

 If you trust him there's no need to worry. You shared passwords a long time ago and apparently neither of you log onto each other's FB.
You said yourself you don't need his password let alone log onto his account so there's no need to ask him about it.
