Secrets about your past or family that your spouse does not know about or found out that your spouse was keeping one from you? Things tend to slip when family spends a lot of time together around the holidays. Do we need to know everything about our spouses or should bad decisions from high school and childhood be left in the past?
I firmly believe nothing should be deliberately kept from a spouse. My spouse knows everything about me but I have nothing to hide from my past. I recently found out that something has been kept from me. Deliberately I'm certain, because it is definitely something I have a strongly differing opinion regarding. He does not know that I now know this secret. Not sure if I should keep the secret and pretend I don't know, try to get him to be honest with me on his own (and risk him lying), or just spill it that I know and although I disagree - it's the past and I won't hold it against him. A part of me wants to hear from him that he believes it was a mistake and would never encourage our children to do the same.
