How good an idea is it to lie to your partner
How good an idea is it to lie to your partner
Because we have all told the occasional white lie.
Surely if you could ask everyone you know what the most important aspect of a relationship is, trust would top the list. Well, the truth is that mistrust is the silent killer of what might otherwise be a healthy relationship.
But sometimes you don't wonder if you really should be one hundred percent honest with your partner?.
The answer is, understandably, more complicated than it sounds. According to experts "it is contextual". In other words, you don't necessarily have to reveal everything, it's also important to have limits - you don't have to share every detail of information to be considered honest. But this does not mean in any way that we are advocating lies.
What is raised is a valid point, especially if you are in the first stage of a relationship: it is not necessary to reveal information that is not relevant to your partner under the pretext of being honest.
For example, if you bump into your ex in line to buy a coffee in the morning, you don't need to run off to tell your boy. If your partner is so suspicious that he needs to know about each of your interactions, it means that there are deeper problems that you should pay attention to regardless of honesty.
When you start a relationship it is up to you to make the decision about what is important to share with your partner and what is irrelevant, in the end you will realize that it is a matter of maturity. But when the relationship becomes serious, lying can put your relationship at risk.
The answer to the question, when can you lie to your partner? - is short and concise: never. Not even the little white lies, which at the end of "itas" have nothing because they tend to become big and powerful lies.
As small as it may seem, from "yes, it was delicious" when you cook to "that your sister is coming to dinner tonight", it is better to avoid lying and find a way to communicate these problems with compassion than to hide them.
"Being honest is healthy, because once you or your partner harbor or hide something, other feelings or resentments grow as a result and eventually become radioactive in a relationship," expert psychologists explain.
So if you take the example of her sister and since her visits make you uncomfortable, the correct thing would be to say to her "I don't feel comfortable when your sister comes to our house because she puts her shoes on the sofa", for example. That is, do not be critical and justify your argument in the most rational way with compassion
