How do you tell someone something that you have kept from them?

Question

But you are so afraid of them and that is why you have kept it from them. I feel like im losing my mind. He will never understand.

Answer 1

"We tell lies when we are afraid...afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie, the thing that we fear grows stronger." It will tear you apart inside if you don't get it out on the table. Preface the revelation by telling him how scared you are and how you are afraid that he won't understand. Sometimes people see that as a challenge, and make it a point to try harder to understand. Good luck.

Answer 2

Sometimes, it helps to have someone else there to mediate. Counselors or close friends are immensely helpful in such situations. It sounds to me that you need to have someone with you for this talk, if you are afraid of the person you are going to talk to. It would probably make it much easier for you to tell him.

In some situations, you simply have to say the words. If for some reason you cannot bring yourself to verbally say anything, even a letter might help.

Answer 3

Give it to the Lord.

If it is something so horrible that you can not keep it inside, confess it to the Lord and He will direct you what to do. He may or may not lay it on your heart to tell that someone what you are hiding.

If it is something that will harm that person by NOT telling them, then I think that you owe it to them to tell them.

Answer 4

Why are you afraid of them? Best thing to do is tell them in a public place.People always behave better in public and if you need help they will be there

Answer 5

you need to be strong enough to tell them your secrets..being afraid will not make sense.how can your problem be resolved without telling them? if these people are really your family whatever you confess or confront to them, they would understand you and accept you.because it is still you who will suffer for the longest time if you will not be able to tell them.

Answer 6

Depends on what it is, but you are probably causing yourself so much more stress by not tellin him and also if your not true to someone in your life then you cannot be true to yourself and you should always be true to yourself. just trust yourself and you will be okay.
