I’m sure there are probably many a misstep from a former life that you’ve never let on about. You probably haven’t outlined every little indiscretion for whatever reason. We’ve all had a relationship (or two) that we regret and it’s really just better if they never know about it. Or maybe there’s that nickname that you’ve spent the better part of adulthood trying to shake and finally have. Why risk bringing it to life again? Or maybe it’s some former mountain of debt that, if they knew might make them wonder if you could possibly be that reckless again.
Those things are all history and there’s no use digging up the bones of our past and laying them out to be picked over, now is there?
No, I’m talking about right now. Right now, what aren’t you telling your man or your woman and why?
Fair enough. I have to say that most secrets I am keeping are of the former life variety. I reiterate opening remarks about letting sleeping dogs lie. I won’t white wash it, there are some tales to be told.
I have certain purchases that I’ve opted not to talk about. Truthfully I’m just being silly because I know they probably wouldn’t mind. It’s more of an internal guilt.
Other than that I am not actively hiding anything. I hope that’s not a dissapointment. I don’t think there will be a lot of response to this thread. If something is serious enough to keep from a close one then it’s likely serious enough to keep from a stranger.
One other thing. Please don’t reveal any criminal wrong doings here.
There is really only one thing that I’ve kept from my mister. It has to do with something that happened with my ex… But I’ve never told anyone about it (even my best friend).
There are times it has been on the tip of my tongue, but I don’t know that I can really deal with thinking about it. My mind tends to black it out.
