Do you tell your OH everything?

[BlueMoons90]

Just inspired by a recent thread - do you tell your OH everything? I know that's incredibly broad. My DP knows pretty much everything there is to know about me, and I'm very guilty of texting him sporadically throughout the day to tell him very menial things! I put that down to being a SAHM though.

Yeah pretty much. I feel comfortable being able to talk to him about anything (which is a change on past relationships!)

Yeah. Pretty much everything (not everything from my past though)

No. I haven’t got time during the day and I’m too knackered in the evening to care. He just gets the highlights.

No, mainly because loose lips, sink battleships. Besides these days you never know just how loyal your partner, best friend, ect truly is, so from an operational perspective, why put all your knowledge and trust into one particular person, especially when we all.know the old age, I can keep secret, then drunkenly moments and suddenly x,y, knows the secret too ect

Yes. There’s nothing I couldn’t tell him.

Yes he’s my best friend and I’m very lucky I can tell him anything. He’s a very stable person and a great sounding board. Wasn’t the case with my ex though so I do understand if you can’t.

No.

I was asking because I think especially on Mumsnet it's very easy to see everyone else's relationships and maybe think your own is a bit strange?! And I've had this discussion in real life with my friends and had mixed responses.

I draw a line at confidences that my friends share. He would not care nor benefit.

There's nothing that I wouldn't or couldn't tell him, but there are things I haven't simply because they're not relevant (finer details of past relationship history for example).

I could tell my DH anything. It doesn't that I should, or do - especially when information isn't mine to share. I don't break the confidence of family or friends. Fortunately I have never been placed in a situation where I've felt genuine conflict between confidentiality to a friend and a need for honesty with DH (cheating between joint friends being the most obvious example that comes to mind).

Pretty much yes. If its something insignificant then probably not. He listens to everything when we have a conversation and is great really.

He knows everything important about my present. Not everything about my past, before I met him. I don't feel the need to know everything about him either, I don't consider us to be two halves of a whole - he's his own person, but we're lucky enough to share a very happy life, marriage and children with each other. Without knowing every thought that passes through the other's head.

I think I'd bore the poor guy to tears if I told him 'everything' about my day. I can tell him anything but how much is there to actually say?

We prefer talking about other subject tbh.

Goodness no. I love him and trust him but he doesn't need to know the minutiae of my friends' lives for example.

Mostly, I don’t tell him things other people have told me in confidence.

Nope, he wouldn’t be interested.

More or less yes, although not every fart! I don't share other's info, I'm not a gossip, neither is DH.

Sort of.

I wouldn't tell him if I won £5.60 on the Euromillions, but if it was £56.00 I would.

I can talk to him about anything - he's a good listener and is a great sounding board. We're both in management roles so we bounce ideas off each other (no personal specifics obviously)

No, because he doesn't either.

The only things I don't discuss are what friends or family have told me in confidence.

No, he doesn’t need to know about 60% of my shit

I could, he's the most trustworthy person I know, but there's lots I don't tell him either because it was told to me in confidence or because it just wouldn't interest him.

Good god no. My past is mine to know... I share my own present, but not anything told to me in confidence

Yes. Apart from the affair I've been having for 5 years
