    Is it ok to tell your boyfriend/girlfriend your friends private stuff?

    If it was explicitly shared in confidence, no. Nor does the SO expect to hear private details about my friends' stuff since most of it doesn't concern him in the slightest.

    One of my friends was quite up front about the limits of her confidentiality, in that she would not withhold anything from her husband. I respect that and censored what I shared with her accordingly.

    nope.

    There are some things that I've never discussed with anyone, ever... and I'll take to the grave.




    Especially that whole Dallas grassy knoll thing, back in November of '63.

    Have you heard any James Garfield jokes ?

    I'm coming up empty for him.

    That's the only way to keep a friend, men talk to their friends, too.

    Trust me, I have learned this! The SO works 12 hour shifts at a small remote site, it's like a little enclosed community, and the stuff I have heard about his coworkers :o I swear all they do up there is gossip and overshare.

    I just tell everything to the anonymous internet void.
    I also just tell ppl that I'm not good with secrets. My SO definitely knows everything. 👀

    i figure if they know you're in a relationship- they should expect anything they tell you to be shared with your significant other. otherwise they're coming at you from a place of expecting you to hide something from your SO, no matter how inconsequential it may be.

    agree it seems weird to think someone wouldn’t tell their boyfriend/girlfriend about their friends

    Is it ok to tell your boyfriend/girlfriend your friends private stuff?

    Same question, but I like it so much I put a ring on it. I.e. is it all right to share that private stuff with your spouse?

    Still depends on the relationships... As with all these relationship type questions, there are no blanket answers for what people should/shouldn't do.

    If your partner falls asleep in a funny pose, and you happen to have a phone camera that advertises low light photography as a selling point, is it okay to take a picture of them to poke fun at them later?
