5 Shocking Things Couples Hide From Each Other

By Anirudh Narayanan

The world has evolved so much but we humans are far from perfection. We still commit the same mistakes and still tell each other the same lies. Couples are no different! They say they love each other and maybe they do. But they also lie and hide things from each other.

It is understandable that they hide things because they don't wanna muddle the waters again. But what they don't realise is that hiding something is only going to come back to haunt them in one way or another. So, our advice would be to start the relationship on a clean slate. Do not be afraid to accept your mistakes, because those mistakes made you what you're today. Your partner deserves to know the real you and vice-versa.

13 Things That Make Us Truly Indian

Read on as tell you about some of the shocking things couples hide from each other.

Things Couples Hide From Each Other

They Are Still In Touch With Their Ex
Exes are always a tricky part. No matter how long it has been since you broke up, it always has a straining effect on the relationship. To avoid this couples often lie to each other that they aren't in touch with their ex. But it happens to be one of those things couples hide from each other.

Their Virginity
Virginity, at least in India, can be quite a touchy topic. Couples expect each other to be virgins but it doesn't turn out as they think it will. So, most of the couples lie to each other about their virginity. Even though it is such a trivial thing, people, especially guys, get very touchy-feely about it.

Things Couples Hide From Each Other

The Number Of Affairs
In this day and age it isn't uncommon for people to fall in love before marriage. But even strings of affairs doesn't teach most a lesson. They commit dozens of mistakes in the name of experiments and whatnot! After they get married the couples habitually lie about their previous flings. Well, nobody would be proud of half a dozen affairs! Another instance where couples hide things from each other.

Their Financials
If there is one thing couples should not hide from each other it is the financial aspect. It just isn't right for people to take another for granted and ask to play along like a fool! But couples, mostly husbands lie about their financial status. And that is not a storm which will calm down, ever.

Things Couples Hide From Each Other

Their Sexual Fantasies
Being in a relationship couples often have sexual fantasies about each other. But the degree of deviance shocks even them and they are too scared to tell their partners about it. For example bondage might be your thing but your partner might freak out. So you just lie about it and play along to your partner's fantasies which seem acceptable.
