Revealing a deep dark secret from your past to someone you love seems like a wonderful idea today until you open your mouth to speak. Your intention is to create a deeper level of trust, but your words might have the opposite effect now. Although you are not responsible for anyone else's reaction to your disclosure, some things may be better left unsaid. Consider your motives before you start to talk. If your actions are truly for the good of the relationship, then it's probably wise to proceed. If not, pick a topic that is healing rather than hurtful.
