3 Secrets you should not hide from your partner

It’s only human to keep secrets, but there’s a thin line between mystery and privacy. And when it comes to your partner, there are certain important information that should not be kept from them.

There might be certain things you would prefer to keep from them probably because you feel they are not important to the relationship or because you believe that keeping that information to yourself will protect your relationship.

Yet there are some things that hiding them will actually put your partner off, or cause them to question the relationship altogether. Actually, some persons may never be able to forgive if these sort of information are kept from them. Keeping secrets always ends badly.

Although the degree of openness is relative, especially to trust and level of connection as some things are better left undisclosed, knowing what to share and the right time to share is very important to any love relationship.

As a matter of fact, every relationship thrives on honesty and trust from both parties.

Rough Past.

Health status such as HIV status, infertility, genotype, and so on, must be disclosed because your health issues directly affect your partner’s life as soon as you both start building one together.

Your expectations

Your beliefs about relationship and marriage, the roles you feel a man and a woman must each play in a relationship or marriage, and what you personally expect from your partner as a contribution to the relationship must be shared.

Keeping your partner in the dark about this will put them in a position where they don’t really know what they might do to please you or offend you. And where they constantly fall short of your expectations, the relationship is also strained.

Apart from this, the other person needs to know what they are going into and whether or not they can keep up with such expectations. You both also have the chance to discuss these preferences and dislikes and meet each other halfway with compromises that won’t hurt.
