Someone had done something inappropriate
to me. It was a long time ago, and for
the most part, I've worked through it,
but it still impacts my thoughts and
feelings. Should I be telling my wife?
I'm terribly sorry that this happened to
you, and I commend you for doing what
you can to work through it and remain
strong, and for even asking this
question. Where do you draw the balance
or the line between something that is
secret and something that is private?
Privacy is very important. Secrecy is
very dangerous. Is this private or is it
a secret?
If you were to tell your tell your wife
and she reacted in a way that was
pleasing to you, what difference would
that make to you? What would that do for
you? What would now happen that you got
that off your chest? Would you feel more
confident? Would you feel happier? Would
you feel more trusting? What is the
internal change that you're hoping for
by sharing this information? Figure out
the internal change that you're looking
for or by sharing this information
and work on creating that internal
change beforehand.
Then with proper guidance make a
decision as to whether it's appropriate
to share this information or doing so
from a healthy place and making this
decision whether to or not to from a
healthy place is definitely going to
serve everybody much better.
