Keep a lid on relationship news
It’s natural to want to share with others when something is going right in your life, and it’s also natural to want to seek out advice when something is going wrong. But there are some aspects of your relationship that should remain sealed from the ears of others, as the people below share.
Rachel:
Never share your sex life and relationship problems with your family and your friends. That is exactly how I stayed married for more than a decade and I got married at 22 years old. My friends actually confessed to me that they cannot believe my husband and I lasted this long because they thought we got married too early. They swallowed their words and it is not that I don’t have relationship problems, because I do. I just learnt the importance of respect for my marriage and my husband and I honored that with privacy. I learnt that it’s not everything good fi eat, good fi chat!
Leah:
I learnt the hard way when I shared with a very close friend of mine the problems my man and I had, and she basically used that and sabotaged my relationship. I mean everything I shared with her, she could have repeated them to me. Talk about a backstabber! Ladies, learn to shut out family and friends from your personal life or you will regret it.
CS:
I strongly believe that when it comes to relationships, the fewer people involved, the stronger it will grow. I told, well complained to my sister how much of a user my husband was and I told her some of the things that he was doing with our finances. A few months after, she and I had a disagreement and she actually went and posted what I shared with her on Facebook. Ladies, trust no one! My husband saw it and confronted her, and she told him that I had told her everything. My husband has moved out. Look at that.
Sheryl:
I have had so many bad experiences with friends and relationships. It just will never work out if your mouth is always at your friends when you have relationship problems. You have to adult up and learn to handle your issues.
Tameka:
Ladies, talk to a counselor, never friends or family.
