Six Secrets You Should Never Keep From Your Partner

Finding someone to love and to love you back is a beautiful thing.

But what is more beautiful is knowing you can trust your partner with anything.

It is not once nor twice that we have seen couples find out about their partner’s ‘secrets’ when it’s too late.

Below are some of the important things you should tell your partner before or after you start dating

If you have kids from a previous relationship

We have seen couples who have lived for years separated from their kids. Some even make their kids call them aunty.

Women have become very notorious for hiding kids especially when they feel a man might reject them over this.

It’s important to let your partner know you have kids, if they love you enough they will stay, if not let them go.

It is easier to learn this from the word go than to learn it later in the relationship.

HIV status

If you are living positively, it is important to inform your partner so that they can get tested.

Some people hide their status only to end up infecting their partners who in turn infect other people especially if they are promiscuous.

Not everyone gets HIV/ AIDS by sleeping around.

Some people get infected during accidents, some are born positive so one should not be scared of opening up about your status.

If someone loves you they will stay whether you are positive or not.

Debt history

Kenyans are notorious when it comes to hiding their debts.

Most have loans with mobile banking apps, and banks and it’s important to let your partner know where you stand financially.

Families have been broken by hiding such information, some people even get auctioned.

Inherited diseases

We have ailments that are passed from parent to kid.

Such include heart disease, high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s disease, arthritis, diabetes, cancer, and obesity.

It’s important to let your partner know because it’s easier to control some of these ailments.

Family curses

Funny as it might sound there are families with a generational curse.

This means you being married to that family might make you inherit the curse whether willingly or unwillingly.

Ask around to know whether the family you are getting married to is safe or not.

Fertility problems

There are people who know from the word go that they cannot bear kids.

they however get into relationships hoping to trap their partners.

If you know you have fertility issues, please tell your partner.
