A wise man will not...

A foolish man will...

Wise men keep understanding with women,not telling her everything transactions of his life.

Wise women keep distance from men discussion because it could be dangerous to her life.

Choose where U belong.

[quote author=Earthbound post=71642965]I am of the opinion that a man must try to be as honest as possible to his wife, but she does not need to know EVERYTHING. RIGHT?

What?! didn't you remember what Delilah did to Samson?! Tell my wife everything? I de mad, I'll make her think she knows everything but hell no I'm not talking any woman all my shitt. Females are unstable and can do whatever with that information when situations don't go well with them. Men keep most shitt to yourselves or rather confide in your correct tight home boy and never let your wife know how much you have or earn, break whatever it is in to two and make her know of only 50% or less. Believe me this will help you so much. Trust no woman.

It depends. There are some you will tell, say, your income and she would want you to buy her expensive stuffs, not minding that there are other important needs. If you marry this type, it is better to tell her only what she needs to know.

There are the ones that helps you manage your money well.

Two becomes one? honey that's just a motto :-) don't take it serious. If men were to tell everything there will be war in every home.

She doesn't need to know everything. A man safeguards his home by applying wisdom. Most people want to keep their marriage, family & friends. Telling all to your wife could be so detrimental. And, never believe she would always tell you everything about herself too. Put all into dire consideration before divulging it. I may sound too harsh, but I am sure,,,,,,

the wise would understand my point.
God bless you,sir0

Why not... couples should be transparent to each other in everything and will uphold the family to the greater places. It will reduce conflict and other unforseen crises ahead. Then why couples keeping secret to each other. And i ask " why the love"? Is just full of decit

yes, tell her everything no matter what. if na wife go hide something from her husband, everybody go de shout.
if the world frowns at a woman who hide certain truth from her husband then the husband should be honest in all his ways.
The wife always have a way of finding out the truth.
some1 like me will find the truth without u suspecting anything and still wait for the day you will open up.

Even God will not tell you everything because he knows you are not strong enough to contain the message, for example, there are spiritual entities moving around us every day, God will not open your eyes to see these spirit beings. God knows it will be too much for you to handle. So, he closed our spiritual eyes.

Likewise the book of Micah 7:5 " Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide : keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom "

Apostle Peter who was a married man also told us in the book of 1 Peter 3:7a "Likewise,ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge"

Of course there are some information that are very important, even financial issues you need to tell your wife but you will not be helping the union if you know that an information will be too much for your wife to handle and yet you decided to open up when it is not yet the right time to tell her.

You need to know that ways of approach of solving family issues are not the same, the way your wife will solve it may be quite different from the way you will solve it.

Let's look at Abraham, God told Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, he knew that this directive from God is too hard for Sarah to handle, he kept it away from her, even Isaac had no clue about the sacrifice, this is wisdom, I believed this information would have destroyed this family if not properly handle by Abraham.

Later, when you begin to discover your wife is getting more understanding with prayers and the help of God, you can start explaining things to her.

The truth is, the husband and wife are one, yes but you need to know that you are male and female,the body of a man is completely different from the body of a woman, you are not male and male or female and female.
There is a wide difference between husband and wife but they need to be one. That's why the Bible calls it a mystery.

You argued that he must tell you everything because you are one, oh! Yes I agreed but a loving husband must not hurt the feeling of the wife if he knows that the information is not good at a particular time.

So manage your information properly because every marriage is unique.

God bless you.

Re: Should A Husband Tell His Wife Everything? by cronsberg: 8:25am On Sep 30, 2018
I once told my wife that some of my family members are against our marraige, i told her that so that she will have a thick skin incase she notice any hostility from anyone of them when visiting them. And to act maturely and not freak out or get emotional. I thought i was being honest with her in the spirit of disclosing everything, biggest mistake ever cuz now she constantly use it against me, in any small argument, she will keep repeating that afterall my family dont like her so i also dont really love her. To the extend of even telling her family elders that my family hates her, can u imaging? I learned to keep my mouth shut since then. I learned that women generally cannot be trusted with anything basically, especially secrets
Re: Should A Husband Tell His Wife Everything? by stagger: 8:33am On Sep 30, 2018
Women are emotional beings and are not wired to handle information the way men do.

That said, there is a difference between hiding information, and managing information. Managing information means that you only let out what needs to be let out, in a manner that will not evoke negative reactions from the wife, the same way a President of a country is privy to information from the secret service that ordinary citizens are not.

Someone mentioned Abraham here in the case of the instruction to sacrifice Isaac. That is exactly how such information is to be handled. Not everything shoud be divulged by a husband to a wife.

Telling ur partner everything is at ur risk
I used to tell my wife things but when I discovered she can't keep secrets, I stopped telling. It's all about wisdom. A wife that exposes u and what u say to her family and friends should be avoided at all cost...am wearing d shoe so I know.

Ur partner is supposed to be ur confidant but when she's not, my people u better TRADE WITH CAUTION

There are things better left unsaid. Things that can shatter the marriage if said. All you need do is stop the bad thing u doing so it doesn't result to something else.
