Do you share every thing with your spouse?

In the beginning of a relationship people(both men and women) seem to share everything with the partner. But when time passes on they stop sharing many things with them.In fact some couples speak very little.Mostly men don't share much with the partners. Women on the other hand usually want to share most of the things with the partner. How about you? Do you share everything with your spouse? Or any other person?

My spouse is my best friend and we’ve been like this for 12 long years. While its true that most men don’t want to share everything with their wives, my hubby is just the opposite. His stomach bloats if he cant tell me all that has happened throughout the day…and then we sit back and if something wrong has happened we usually analyze the situation and discuss it amongst ourselves. This has become so much a habit with him that if sometimes he doesn’t want to tell me something (if he feels that it would make me worried), I can detect it from his voice.

I think that once you are together you should share all with your spouse. You have expressed your love for one another and are supposed to accept the things that they do. I do not think that you have a need to share all of the things in your past if they are not harmful to your current relationship.

I personally share everything with my husband of 21 years and this keeps our relationship fresh and honest. He in turn tells me everything and yes I know this for his family would be glad to bust him if we were not sharing everything all the time with each other for on many occasions they have tried to tell things that happened just so I would get mad or something who knows. They come tell me when he kissed a girlfriend of ours and dared him to kiss her another time then ran and told me but for one he had already told me and it continues like this all the time. His one first cousin in now trying to get him in trouble with me when he calls and makes sure he comes home instead of going somewhere else for one he is free not a slave and if he wants to go see someone else he is free to choose to. I think those who do not share everything is not true soul mates in some ways. There is then a place were lies lay for if somethings does happen no matter how small and the other mate finds or hears about it then there is this doubt or fear of what else do they hide sometimes resulting in divorce over nothing. Then there are others who share nothing and cheat regular while the spouse has no clue as to what is going on or choose not to see it. After all talk is part and the biggest thing is honesty for you are one in many ways. Always be honest then there is no room for doubt.

What do you expect when the passion has fade, love has expired. All what is left is a skeleton love. We remain more like siblings now.

Well I am a blessed to have a great relationship with my husband. Yes, we share everything with one another. We can sit and talk for hours. Matter of fact we talk all though out the day and when he gets home from work, we share things until bedtime. I wouldn't have it any other way. A key factor in any good relationship is 'communication'.

used to share a fair bit with my partner, now there's things i won't tell him. cause they will come a bit me on the butt, at a later date for me telling him something. it's in his nature as well to do it, then wanting to try a stop me doing things is taking the cake on it.

My spouse and I have been together for 10 years. I think the first year we shared everything then we went through a rough few years after having kids. We really weren't in love I would say. Now again for the past year we share everything. We love to hear about each others day, the good the bad and the everything. I think if you are in love with someone you do share everything.

hi friend, i would share everything with my spouse no matter in the beginning of our relation or not, and i would ask my boyfriend to share his happiness and sadness with me. coz it can be easily recognized from his face that he is not happy. so i would comfort him, thinking about what i can do for him, so we are still love each other very much.
