5 Things You Shouldn’t Tell Him

You may be under the illusion that telling your guy everything is the best way to be, but FYI – it isn’t. There are certain topics of convo you should never indulge in with your man for fear of causing some relationship fireworks so take a look at this little list of things you shouldn’t tell him and avoid any unnecessary confrontation in your relationship…

1. Past Flings

He obviously knows there were guys before him, but try not to make this any worse by divulging or describing your sexual past. When a guy asks you about previous men in your life what they’re actually looking for is a little reassurance and ego boost. They want to know that they’re your God and any other men in your life before were just clueless idiots. So it wouldn’t hurt to boost your man’s confidence by telling him that he’s the one that rocks your world…just remember that too much detail can often trip you up!

2. How You Spend Your Money

All the time you have separate bank accounts, your money is 100% your business and has nothing to do with him. Guys get themselves into a total flap when you buy things that they think are unnecessary like make up and shoes. You don’t need to lie, just try and avoid the topic and if he compliments a new dress you’re wear – don’t gush over all the details of where you got it and how much it cost – keep it simple! As a precautionary measure, always have something in mind that he’s recently bought to bat the ball right back at him!

3. How You Feel About His Family

Never, ever, ever reveal your true feelings about his family because I guarantee it’s a one-way ticket to trouble. If you even slightly criticise his brood he’ll feel as though you don’t fit in and may even reevaluate your relationship. If they’re truly that bad, just subtly avoid seeing them wherever you can. The way I’d recommend dealing with them would be to see it as a challenge to get on with them…just look at it as a game you simply must win!

4. Innocent Flirting

Just because you’re in a loving relationship, doesn’t mean you can’t boost your self-esteem a little by flirting with the guy in the accounts department or the hot single neighbour across the road. But if you do I urge you not to tell you guy about it. You may want him to appreciate you more but bragging that you still have guys queuing outside the door will make in insecure – which will essentially make your life harder. Keep it on the low and just know that you’ve still got it girlfriend!

5. What You Really Think of His Gift

We all know men are simple creatures that require constant guidance…much like a dog I suppose. So when he buys you a bad gift you only really have yourself to blame for it. Don’t scold him or tell him he’s done bad, find something good about the gift and next time drop subtle hints like telling him particular store you like…at least if he still buys something crap again you can take it back and get a credit note for a store you actually like!
