Do you have secrets to reveal?

There comes a time in a relationship when you may have to be vulnerable and share intimate secrets. Some people have real anxiety about this and put it off as long as possible. We fear being judged, rejected, or even ridiculed about our skeletons. Things that we keep hidden out of shame can become a problem in a relationship, though. How do you decide the right time?

Personally, I would want to tell and know more sooner than later. If the comfort level is there, sharing something that needs to be revealed is a milestone in a relationship. Seeing their reaction or non-reaction can be very telling!

Have you ever had anxiety about revealing things to the person you are dating?

What is the best time to share something big that they should know?
