4 Things You Should Never Tell Your Wife

As a man, keeping certain secrets from your wife is going to be helpful in maintaining a healthy marital home. 

Even though, it is said that, after marriage, you and your spouse have literally become one, there are still some issues that need to be kept secret.  

Here, we are going to learn about some of the things that you should never tell your wife, no matter the amount of love that you have for her. 

When you are a man and you want to be in absolute control over your family, you need to know which type of information that you should share and which ones you must keep to yourself. 

It is part of your manly duties to keep the home intact, and one way to achieve this is by keeping certain issues to yourself.  

Without further ado, let's dive deep into the things that you should never tell your wife in a relationship. 

1. Your Finances

This point may sound a bit awkward to you, because you have been spilling the beans regarding your finances to your wife. Don't worry, I will tell you why you need to keep your finances away from your wife. 

Your wife must not know how much profit you make from your business or how much money you earn from your job. 

There are some women who have insatiable taste for luxury, and once you let them know how much you have in your bank, they will find ways of dissipating your account.

They will tell you to buy them all the goodies in the supermarkets and shopping malls until the account runs dry. This is one of the reasons why you should not let her know how much you have.

Just make sure she is well taken care of, and the rest should be between you and your God. How much you make in a month is none of her business. 

Some women also calculate the amount of respect to give a man based on his financial status. In this regard, when you are not doing well financially, never let your wife know that you have gone completely bankrupt.

They will ride on the back of your situation and disrespect you in the most painful way. You should just remain tight-lipped on when you are not doing well. 

It is okay to tell her that things are not as they used to be, or simply, you are broke at the moment. Do not go beyond this to explain anything to her. Keep it to yourself and work yourself out of the hole.

2. Don't Tell Your Wife Your Family Secrets

There are certain issues concerning your extended family that you should never discuss with your wife. Issues bothering on your parents and siblings should never be told to your wife, no matter the amount of love you have for her. 

If your father did not treat your mother well, your wife must not know about that. Same way, if your mother didn't live up to expectations of a good wife, your spouse must not be privy to this sensitive information.

Why is it so necessary to keep your extended family secrets from your wife? It is because, some women will use it against you and your family at the least provocation. 

They will be quick to remind you that you are gradually filling the shoes of your father who probably didn't treat your mother well. They will tell you why you can't hold a family together due to your background as a product of single parenting.

Your secret is your power. Your wife is a third party in your extended family issues and must not take part in any discussion concerning some sensitive issues regarding your family. 

If you want your mother, father and siblings to be respected by your wife, you should desist from discussing them with her. It is not a good practice. Save yourself the embarrassment.

3. Don't Tell Your Wife Your Fears

Another very sensitive issue to keep away from your wife is your personal secrets such as your fears. 

Some women are such that when they hear about your weakness, they will use that against you in your own home. They will expertly exploit your weak points and hit you hard at the places that you feel so much pain. 

Your secret is your power. Keep it and don't lose it. When you are afraid of losing your partner, never let it show in speech or in deeds. 

When she finally realizes that you cannot do without her, my brother, you are in for some real trouble. She will manipulate you and shred your love into pieces.  

4. Don't Tell Your Wife What Others Say About Her 

As a man, another thing you must never tell your wife is the negative things that are said about her to you. This is more particularly when the person passing negative remarks about her is your mother, father or sibling. 

If your wife gets to know that your mother or even your friend doesn't like some aspects of her behavior, she will become disrespectful towards those people.

There are times that some people passing some genuine concerns about your wife to you with the hope that you can take steps to correct those wrongs. Be a man and tackle the issue, instead of telling her who said he or she doesn't like her sense of fashion or whatever. 

Just tackle the problem as if you were the one who made those observations. You are not supposed to let her know who told you what. When you are fond of doing that, you are not far from losing trust among your friends and family members.

Desist from that and save the little reputation you have left. 

Conclusion

If you want to have a stable home, you need to learn how to keep some secrets. You should not be telling your wife everything about your life. Keep certain things to yourself and work towards improving.

You should remember never to tell your wife about your financial status, your family's secrets, what others tell you about her and most importantly, never discuss your fears with her. 

If you heed to these points, you will see how you will command respect in your home.
