Secrets And Privacy…

Keeping secrets in a relationship is a common trend these days but this can be destructive to both sides. There is a difference between privacy and secrets in a relationship. However, a partner can maintain the right to privacy, only if the topic they are keeping to themselves does not negatively affect the other partner in any way. Moreover, secrets in a relationship can negatively affect your well-being and the way you interact with each other as a couple. Secrets in a relationship can be related to infidelity, financial problems and not wanting to be judged.

Secrets And Romance…

When people keep secrets from a romantic partner they think more about the secret when they are alone than when they are with their partner. Keeping secrets from a spouse is connected to a lower relationship quality.

Why Do People Keep Secrets In Relationships?

Most partners keep secrets in their relationships because they fear their partners won’t be able to love them through the truth. However, most people believe that their partners would judge, shame and humiliate them after hearing the truth. Moreover, most relationships have already suffered damage in the form of restricted emotional communication and a continuation of lies.
