I know it’s hard to admit, but let’s face it: we’ve all done it, even though we would love to pretend that we haven’t. What is this woman talking about, you might ask? Well, all I’m saying is that it’s absolutely human nature to talk about different things that happen in our relationships with the people we feel close to.
Do you remember those days when you were in middle school or high school and there was a girl or a boy that you liked? The moment you saw them, you felt like there were hundreds of butterflies in your stomach. You wanted to do everything in your power to get them to notice you, and you’ve shared every juicy detail with your best friends.
Well, that might be the exact moment that made us think that we have to share all our relationship details with the people who only want what’s best for us. Even though it’s natural to tell everything that comes to mind, especially if we believe that only our besties will know, sometimes it’s better to keep things just between us and our partners.
Why is that, you might ask? I will tell you everything you need to know because here are 6 things you shouldn’t share with your friends and family. Let’s begin! Click on the next page!
Of course, this seems like 100% common sense, but when we’re all alone with our friends and the conversation goes further and further, we might be tempted to share different things about our intimate life.
Here’s the thing: when you share all sorts of details with people who are not part of your romantic life, you actually allow them to enter your relationship, and you sure don’t want it.
Filling other people in on what goes on inside your bedroom can do more harm than good to your relationship, so better avoid it. It’s your life and your relationship, not a group event.
No one needs to know how often you have fun between the sheets, what fantasies you have, how often you do it, or how many new things you plan on trying. If you have problems with your romantic life, you should talk to your significant other about them.
Money is truly a sensitive topic for many people, especially couples. How much your partner is making or who pays for this or who pays for that are things that are important to you and your significant other, and they shouldn’t be discussed with anyone else.
Maybe your partner made a big financial mistake and now their income is different than it used to be. If they ask for your help, do it, but remember to keep things private because it’s no one else’s business.
…This one is difficult, trust me! But it’s one of the most important things to remember!
Your fights with your partner are only between the two of you! Or at least, this is how they’re supposed to be. If you and your loved one have some issues and don’t get along, it’s best to take a break, relax, think about other things, then get together again and discuss your problems.
I know that the first thing you want to do is to call your friend and tell them how angry your partner made you, but this will only hurt your connection. Just think about it for a second: if your friends don’t like your partner, or if they’re biased because they’re always on your side, you might be influenced by their opinions.
In a case like this, you might even go to your significant other and tell them that you behaved perfectly and it’s only their fault (something like this happened to me once and it made things worse between my partner and me).
Don’t make the same mistake I made! Instead of getting to your friend and venting about your fight, try to find your way back to your partner.
This is another thing that people usually like to gossip about. If your significant other doesn’t really know what you like or they have no idea what gift to get you, don’t be disappointed if they didn’t get you the thing you were probably expecting.
Maybe they got you an agenda because you kept complaining about how messy you are and how much you need to get organized or productive. If you go to your friends and complain about the awful present they bought you, the end result is surely not going to be a good one for your relationship.
It’s the gesture that counts, and at the end of the day, a gift is a gift. They thought about you and they only had good intentions when they got you that item. Remember that love and effort can never be faulted.
Sensitive correspondence between the two of you, such as emails, messages, voicemails, and pictures, should be kept private. There’s no need for your pals to be part of your private texts and phone conversations. When a couple engages in an intimate discussion, they get closer to one another.
Many dating and relationship counselors advise being vague if you do decide to divulge that you and your partner are having a special type of conversation. As you already know, the best things happen when not a lot of people know about them. Am I right?
Maybe your partner isn’t very handy, and they’re having trouble doing some things around the house. Keep that information between the walls of your home, as they could be feeling uneasy about different things they’re not very confident about.
Embarrassing quirks or routines are also to be avoided. It’s not something you should broadcast to the masses if, for example, your partner doesn’t change their pajamas unless they’re going out. These are, indeed, small gripes that should be private.
