Then they have no business being in a relationship. Especially one in which the other party is ignorant of how the r/ship came to be.

But have you dated any of such Ladies? Why give up on women?

Well. Let's say ive been behind the scenes with too many females and my heart has become cold to women generally as a result. Imagine such a scenario. I wanted to call a foreign client back before the whole e-recharging thingey, so I decided to jump into a neighborhood chilling spit as the only area operating biz @ past 11. Guez what I saw your sisters doing oh. Over 300 good looking churchy ladies were trading in an area with not more than 30 guys coming to patronize their goods


Anyways that's that

After having great expectations with ladies messing up, ive come to the conclusion that loving is for weak persons. Loving is a media propaganda orchestrated and loyal people don't exist. Again seeing what ladies do back stage makes me lose all hope. I've been opportuned to sex ladies that . How do I put it. Loyalty is dead. Loving is placing one's heart in another person's hands. This makes loving even harder. Selfish ambitions, self centeredness has killed relationships


Our mother of Zion in the Lord Henitan24 is here. Mummy


By the way, not all secrets should be shared with your other while the relationship is in its growing stage.

Nobody is my sister, please.

But that's just those ladies now. You cannot judge every woman in the world based on their actions.

Denying your sisters. Okay o

I was so shocked seeing 300 ladies that I had to run fast home call my hommies to come see



Anyways, for we men, loving implies giving up pur personal spaces, information, private lives and co. And its difficult creating space for someone to fill this void giving the selfish,self-centered actions that have become the new norm these days. Loyalty is gone down the drain. And loving without loyalty isn't loving dear.

I personally wouldn't want any lady to tell me stuff when I'm unready to hear them. Even the heart of men is filled with blood

Not always so. Personal lives should be balanced with equally with a (romantic) relationship. If you have to "change"
who you are, or allow your identity fade in a relationship - then it's not a right one.

What kunleweb wrote above sums up the problem and solution to the so called love these days,we all need loyalty and not just nonsense love.....loyalty like i am gangster is what i practise everyday of my life even in religion loyalty is needed but i see the female sex of these modern era are too weak to be loyal to their partners instead they owe loyalty to the highest bidder of their love ,which further establishes the fact that life is economics afterall.

You can be loyal to an unfaithful, disrespectful lover. So, loyalty isn't the only thing.

Everyone is in it together. LOL men women. Everybody is playing the other person. But to the OP question: do you think you should tell everything to your partner? Or withhold some things? What kind of secrets should be kept?

Oh. I tried to grasp this for a moment. I thought you mean 'love-only' interest. Like an interest based on love. So, you do think then that one shouldn't tell everything to their partner or 'current interest?'

Wow cheesy. I feel this is both good and not-so-good. Good as in you're very open, expressing your thoughts, free. But you don't tell really personal or sensitive matters, especially ones friends kept with you to others?

It's good and bad because I'm the type of fool who'll tell her man every idiot that toast me that day and we could laugh about it but I think this is unhealthy because what if he feels way? But then he loves my honesty but I can overdo it undecided

Well it's not a bad thing really, especially in relationships. You don't share others' secrets, so that's great

And as for your honesty, I think it's one important 'adhesive' in a relationship. It's the person you're in with that matters. It's not foolish to me.

I don't know, I was chatting to my sister about this last night (I was honest and told one of my nephew that I didn't remember his son's name...
And she was shocked that I did that. grin)
she's the opposite of me, she'd play it out and extract her answers without asking... She's conservative and some what secretive. I admire her but I think in sharing we help others around us. She finds me somehow, like... erm... ghetto grin
she sees it as a 'class' thing...I don't know

When you are married to someone, you'll just have to trust them with the truth. ALWAYS. unless the secret is not yours to share. Like a sibling's or parent's secret.

If it will affect your family directly, especially negatively, then you must tell him.

Yeah. Doing that is definitely not okay. It's none of their business. And you're in no place to tell them.

What about things about you? 'Secrets' or personal issues, stuff relating to you?

Are there some you can't share with your SO?

Wow. You're blunt that way? Lmao. That happens to me too. I forget names and very minute things about people, but it's usually because I'm not so interested about the info.

Sometimes I tell them I don't remember, and sometime I just go about it the way your sister do.

I like that you don't pretend about such. It's the intent that matters to me. As long as you aren't being inconsiderate.

Yes. Sharing for the benefit of others. Because some 'deliberately' share to cause problem or bad-mouth.

Finding you ghetto as in you being too wild or not giving a damn about people, rules, etc??

Let them know everything about you unless if its something that has to do with your family or a very dark secret that disclosing it may probably ruin the relationship.

Honesty and trust are one of pillars of a healthy relationship.

When I say share I meant instead of playing it cool like my sister does, I would say I don't know something...
Maybe others too don't know... So, my intention in being open is to help, whereas people like my sister who are secretive do it for this purpose: aligned with 'self-preservation' and there's no malice, its just that her business is her business. I might call her secretive and cunningbut she calls me names like a rebel or a none confirming wild child when I'm actually trying to do my part for humanity grin...

What I'm saying is that it's never a clear cut rule for determining which is better. She's trying to survive and preserve herself within set guidelines. And I hate secrets because I have major trust issues. I can barely trust people with the truth as it is.

I'd say work on your issues and dark secrets before involving a partner and children into things. Secrets, especially the dark kind are destructive.
