They say what you don’t know can’t hurt you but some of the secrets we are keeping from our partners are heart-breaking, hilarious … and in some cases downright disgusting.
Men and women anonymously confessed the things they are hiding from their other halves in a survey by research company OnePoll.
The unmentionable facts and feelings included:
(Women)
· “My husband has no idea that I’m bisexual”
· “I have another child from a casual fling long before we met”
· “I was a costumed extra in Star Wars Phantom Menace. He is obsessed with Star Wars and I just like knowing that I was actually in one of the movies and he has no idea”
· “I was once arrested for peeing in a shop window display”
· “I have a moustache and have to remove the hair when he is out of the house”
· “My partner does not know that I once dated a member of the Stereophonics”
· “That I have an ISA just in my name. He thinks it’s joint but he’s totally out of touch with our finances”
· “I regularly look at houses in my home town to move into on my own”
· “I know he’s cheating on me”
· “I’ve been suffering from depression and anxiety for the last 18 months”
(Men)
· “I hate her cooking but can’t bring myself to tell her”
· “I like to be spanked”
· “I have only ever loved one woman, and she’s not her”
· “That I was a virgin when we met”
· “Sometimes I pick my ear and eat it”
· “I once dated a porn model”
· “I volunteer to go away with work even though I tell her my boss says I have to go”
· “I can’t stand her parents”
· “We’ve been together for a year and I’ve taken Viagra every time we’ve had sex”
· “I gamble on the stock market”
A OnePoll spokesman said: “Honesty is supposed to be the best policy but we were shocked by some of the things that spouses and partners keep from each other.”
