Do you hide things from your husband?

I’m not talking about your chocolate stash or a surprise birthday party.

I’m talking about the time you didn’t mention your chat with an old boyfriend (you weren’t doing anything wrong, really). Perhaps you hid a small purchase or maybe you were just tired and you covered your disconnect with a fake orgasm.

I get you don’t want to disappoint or hurt your husband, but please understand hiding is a form of dishonesty and dishonesty tears at the fabric of a relationship. (It also makes it nearly impossible to fix any problems.)

You and your husband are teammates for life. Don’t let anything become a barrier to real intimacy. Gather up your courage, pick a good time to talk with your man, and come out of hiding.

When you start hiding things away, that’s when the darkness creeps up. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. Steve Kazee
