Is It Right To Share Everything in a Relationship or Not?


It is said "Relationships is all about sharing everything with your partner". 

Well excuuuse me! I so don't agree with this school of thought because I think relationships are killed by sharing everything. Intrigues fuels relationships; There has to be a small or large amount of intrigue in a relationship to keep it interesting.

It's just like watching a movie for the first time or finishing an adventure game, the feeling  you get when watching the movie for the first time is totally different because there's suspense, intrigue and all at that point but after that, subsequent watching is just for the fun of it and you'll eventually get tired of it. Same with finishing a game, same with relationships.

When it comes to relationships, lot of things are meant for sharing - like same bottle of wine, same interest, sometimes property to assist the other and other stuffs. And some things aren't meant for sharing,  things like;

·         Past Secrets -  Some skeletons are meant to stay in the locker and never be open ( Don't you watch horror movies? Shit happens when you go opening lockers full of skeletons).  It's nice talking about past experiences, moments and feelings but never go into details when talking about exes or habits. This can stare up jealousy and besides there's so much a person should know about you coz if anything goes wrong, it could be used against you.

·         Passwords -  This should not even be an option.  You may think you have nothing to hide but as a matter of fact, you do! Passwords to your social network accounts where you tell your friends some embarrassing secrets or a friend of yours teasing you with one of the secrets you forgot to tell your partner of and he then finds out by nosing into your private messages...not good.

·         Friends Character - Never snitch about your friends to your partner or talk about their attributes unless when needed.  Your partner may either end up having  a crush on that friend you have so much painted to be a "perfect being" or he/she may actually like those exact attributes you say your friends has, resulting in a crush that may lead to cheating. Or your partner may just end up constantly jealous whenever you say you hanged out with a friend coz you've snitched about how that friend like to parteee and flirt or worse, to him. #NuffSaid

·         Bank Details - It's just stupid sharing this

This is just my opinion anyway, if you think I got it all wrong, please comment and tell me your opinion

      1. He has a main chick and you're the side chick.
      2. He's a flirt
      3. He don't want hoes and friends silently wishing for the relationship to flop to come spoil things
