Hi Friends,

Everyone has a secrets. Not in the most appalling sense of the word, but something we are not comfortable sharing... Something that's personal, and we'd rather it to ourselves. Could be something related to our lives, families, friends, maybe our own embarrassing habits.

Do you think you should share everything about yourself and your life with your partner? Does it give them the feel that you trust them completely and it strengthens your relationship?

Or do you think you should keep somethings to yourself and even your partner doesn't have a right to know them. What if he/she leaves you? Your secrete will be open to public... you'll be vulnerable.

Is it dangerous to trust someone completely? Or do you have to have that someone in your life to live life truly?

Looking forward to great discussion!

a secret can be kept a secret only if it hurts the other person and if it is totally insignificant.otherwise once trust develops,then only love comes into picture.And if your love is true,then you need not be scared that the secrets might come into the open.As such this thought does not come to mind at all!

For girls I think it is easier to share secrets as dey generally dont have any deep dark secrets and all..And though I think we should open up in our relationship bt I mean sum privacy is always needed..You dont have to necessarily tell your secrets to your partner..That's what I feel..
I have had 2 guy best friends till now..and yeah actually though I have had told most of my secrets but I dint share all..I mean I must have shared all wid my girl best friendz as sumtimes guys tend to act like jerks and wont understand what the girls feel..For Eg My Love for Edward Cullen[THIS IS JUST RANDOM:P]Dose guys make fun of me and dey think I am actually mad and all to be in love wid a fictional character..Actually they cant think like girls..
Though i have never been in a relationship but I am quite sure the guy generally do not tell everything to the girls cause dey have too many embarrasing thoughts and memories which they wouldnt want like to share it [especially to their respective girlfriends:P]..This is just my observation.>Doesnt need to be true..so if like a guy tellss his gf that he thinks dis girl is hot and den dey will end up fighting and all..Ok dis is just a small issue..:))though..

Hmm ; see da thing is .. some people dont share their secrets because IF da relation ever ends theres a chance of da partner exposing dem to frendsz and stuff.
secrets dont destroy relationship well honestly it depends on da secret. if it's something relle PERESONAL den it doesnt detroy da relation BUT if its not DAT personal den yess secrets can detroy relationships.
it strengtens dem a bit like yur COMPLETLY trust yur partner and yur telling dem yur secret cuz if you open up to dem they open up to yu too. so yee.
is it dangereous to trust someone completely? - - kinda and not relle i mean if you've known dat person for like FOREVEERR den no it's not dangerous but if yu JUST got to know da person and yu trust dem COMPLETLY den yeess it's dangerouss.. actuallyy very dangerous.

i believe if you are in love, and you are comfortable with your partner. Theres no reason to hold secrets within you. Let them out, it can only make things easier. You'll get a shoulder for support, all the sympathy you need. And a bit of care and worry for you. If you keep it to yourself and it shows up in your life later...it can cause problems. So my advice to you is....spill it.
Its better they find out now, than later

personally i feel from my own experience that a girlfriend and a boyfriend can share some secrets when they are comfortable in sharing because there is never a guarantee that the relationship will last long.
sharing secrets with a boyfriend-to-be husband or girlfriend-to-be wife I think strenghtens the relationship because either way both partners feel that he/she trusts him/her completely and as long as it doesn't hurt each other's feelings. I believe that if the secrets are dark and really embarassing then they shouldn't be completely revealed but somewhat revealed then slowly revealed with the flow.
i had shared one of my biggest secret with some of my so called online friends because i trusted them, in return they criticized me badly using offensive words, blocked me in messenger, completely ignore my emails and ignore me on facebook....i shared one of my biggest secrets with my so called online best friend who told that secret to her sister and mom.....i am no longer friends with but she never shared any one of her secrets with me....she told me that i am her best friend then she completely starts ignoring me since 2007.....so i broke up the friendship with her and a lot of online friends who did the samething.....my biggest secret is my boyfriend.....i never happily say that i am in a relationship, just whenever people read my status ask for inquiries and then they don't believe my boyfriend is my boyfriend due to his profession than that's where the sarcastic criticism takes place.
i had shared most secrets with my boyfriend.....he kept them a secret and still does.....few of his secrets i figured out on my own with his behavior patterns and i kept it a secret.....only one secret he figured out on his own, kept it a secret among us both.
sharing a secret with a complete stranger depends on what kind of secret it is....i think any secret that has to do with relationships and one's success in life is really dangerous as we can't never trust a stranger.....what is they are pretending they are happy for us from the outside but from the inside they are actually jealous.....a jealousy spell is really strong because it can really burn one's happiness into a disaster.
