Keeping secrets is not good for relationships.
What are the most commonly held secrets?
Hiding drug and alcohol use is common in dysfunctional relationships. Feelings of shame stop people from openly drinking or using drugs.
Their attempts to hide their use generally ends badly.
People in relationships often have crushes on others. They often hide their crush, just like they would hide an addiction.
Being able to speak openly with your partner about your feelings is ideal, but dangerous.
Eating to feel better is common. Hiding that eating is not healthy, but happens a lot.
Speak with your lover and make sure that you feel comfortable eating around them. Don't keep your eating a secret.
A lot of families will say, "Don't tell ________ about this!"
It is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to hold on to these kinds of secrets from your lover. It is better not promise that you will keep a secret from your lover. It never ends well.
Keeping money secret is a dangerous road. Both lovers should know what each other is spending, if they want to know.
Keeping shopping and buying secret usually means that you are doing something that your lover doesn't want.
It is better to be out in the open, than to get caught red handed.
Secrets can destroy relationships.
How many secrets are you keeping?
Secrets sooner or later surface and they are less likely to be accepted if discovered rather than mentioned out front.thank you for this true list of secrets.
I also hate secrets and feel that is no way that any spouse should keep secrets no matter what it is. It is best to have an open and honest relationship. Nice list of secrets.
Great list! I hate secrets!
