1. His Best Friend is Hot
If his friend is attractive, he probably knows it already. There's no reason for you to point it out. If you do, he's only going to get self-conscious whenever you all hang out together.
2. You Stalked His Ex on Facebook
He already knows that you did this, because everybody does. Of course, that does't mean you should admit it. It could make you look overly jealous, and scare him away.
Frequently asked questions
3. The Best Sex You've Ever Had
Unless he was the best sex you've ever had, don't tell him about it. He doesn't want to know about the dirty things you did with your ex.
Discussing past sexual experiences can often lead to insecurities and unnecessary comparisons. It's important to focus on the connection between you two rather than dredging up old flames that might diminish the intimacy you share. Instead, concentrate on making current encounters unforgettable. Creating new memories together is what builds a stronger, more confident bond. Remember, the past should serve as a prologue to the sensational story the two of you are writing together now.
4. You Hate His Parents
If his parents say something disrespectful to you, you should bring it up to him. However, you shouldn't bluntly admit that you hate the people who raised him. He'll probably get offended.
5. You Hate His Favorite T-shirt
You can buy him new clothes to urge him to change his fashion sense. However, you shouldn't bash his favorite clothing items. Let him enjoy them.
6. Some Guy Hit on You, and You Didn't Give Him Your Number
If your coworker hit on you, you should probably tell him. If a stranger that you'll never see again hit on you, you might want to keep it a secret. Otherwise, he'll assume you were purposely trying to make him jealous.
7. The People You Wish You Would Have Slept with
You can tell him about your high school crushes. However, you shouldn't go into too much detail about how you wish you would've hit that. It's disrespectful.
8. The Sluttiest Thing You've Ever Done
Sorry girls, but your man doesn't need to know your deepest, darkest sex secret! Instead, keep that business to yourself (or among your girls) and spare him the deets!
9. Your Parents Don't like Him
Telling him this sad and mean detail will only cause him to become self conscious around them or worse resent them. Instead, keep this tidbit to yourself and hope once they get to know him they change their minds!
10. Your Period is Late
Don't alarm him if you're a day or two late. You may be panicking but he doesn't need to! Give it a little time and if it still doesn't show then let him in on the secret because you're going to need him.
Do you tell your man any or all of these things?
