We both confide everything. Maybe that's why we celebrate our 30th anniversary in July.

When there is emotional safety in a relationship, you can confide all things. Emotional safety means that each person is able to share their thoughts, feelings, and opinions without fear of rejection, criticism, or judgement.

If your marriage isn't emotionally safe, you are afraid to tell each other things. This could be one-sided in a marriage. One spouse can feel like they can say anything, while the other keeps things inside for whatever reason. I know a lot of marriages like this. Unfortunately, couples don't get help to figure out this problem. We need to be more aware of what we need in a marriage before we make that commitment.

Also, I think that marriage education should become more of the norm. We aren't born with the skills needed to make a relationship work. If our parents didn't model for us a healthy love relationship, we need to be taught these skills.

I would say eventually I confide most things, but not all. I am a bit secretive, at least if I won't tell my husband I wouldn't tell anyone else either. I think he tells me pretty much everything. Between the two of us I am more likely to keep secrets about myself. I always end up finding out what he is up to, by accident. As does he, when it comes to secret gifts I've been hiding for him! At least he claims it's an accident.

There are some things that go unsaid. No lying though, I trust my husband and he trusts me so I would never risk that. I do feel though that he doesn't need to know all my thoughts and there's times when too much can be a bad thing. I'm talking about non-important stuff that happens all the time, like spending a little too much money on something. But all the important stuff needs to be known.

My wife and I talk to each other all the time, we'll just drive around and talk. That makes for a good relationship, in my opinion. We finish each others sentences, one will think it the other will say it.

She is my best friend, my lover, and my wife. We share our hopes dreams, expectations, with each other.

If we were any closer they'd make a law against it. She is the last love I'll ever have, and I'd lay money she feels the same way. Why? because we talked about that too ;}

Were newlyweds going on 12 yrs. now

Hope this helps

I don't confide every little thing, but generally my husband is the person I can come talk to about anything. I think, the same can be said for the way he feels about me.

I am not afraid to tell my husband anything, but I do not tell him everything. It is not that I hide things from him, it is that while we are married and have been for 16 years, we also have to have our own friends,even if they are mutual friends, there are some things I would talk to them about but not him. For instance, the things he does that get on my nerves that are not worth fighting over. I never keep anything that is vital to our relationship, and if I feel like he needs to know then I will tell him. Good Luck

I never let my husband in on everything. It would complicate him way too much. And he has enough to worry about. I'm sure he keeps things from me too. And that's alright. Even though we are married we still give each other space. Everyone has to have their own things even when your married. You just don't give up being an individual when your married. Sure you share alot, but some things you have to have just to yourself. That's why men shouldn't go in women's purses, and women should stay out of men's wallets. That's a private space.

Yes, of course we confide all. We talk all the time about everything. I can't think of any reason we would have to be afraid to do so.

Well i felt that I used to can do that. Ive tried confiding in him and he has with me. He has talked to me about everything. But when I talk to him he usually says that my thoughts are stupid or im full of it and Ive never done that to him. I talk with him about good things only but when It comes down to serious talk not good for me. He has been afraid to tell me things but he says he trys his best.

I think there are some things men and women understand differently. My husband knows most everything but somethings my friends just help and understand better without judgement. so many men think everything is an attack on them
