Previously, we revealed the secrets that women keep from their husbands, and now is the men's turn! Unlike women, men aren't naturally good at expressing themselves. Most men prefer to shut their mouths when it comes to particular sensitive subjects. But, this group of men revealed their secrets that they don't tell their wives just for us.
I still check out other women
"Please, don't get me wrong, we naturally have that radar that won't turn off, even if we're married. But it doesn't mean I want to make a move on her."
Always find a way to get away from you
"I need time-out too, away from my wife, my kids, and the house – the house chores, to be exact. It doesn't have to be hanging out with a bunch of my buddies, well, that'll be much better, but to be able to spend some time alone without inviting the wife and the kids can be such a nice break."
Sexual fantasies
"I have some particular sexual fantasy but I don't feel like I'd be able to share them with her. I'm afraid of rejection, you know. What if she thinks I'm weird? So I just keep them for myself and get back to same old missionary style."
I'm proud to be Mr. Man
"My wife is an independent woman, the world's best multitasker. She can do anything, from cooking up great meals, teaching our children, to fixing the plumbing. She has her own job as a web designer too. I think she could survive anything without any help from me. But she respects and appreciates me as her husband. I love the feeling when she lean her head on my shoulder just because she needs a place to rest. I feel like I'm needed, I just don't tell her that."
His side of family's problems
"I prefer to keep my family's problems away from my wife. I know that she's a part of the family too, but I think it's best to not letting her know our problems. I just don't want to give her another thing to think about unnecessarily, let me handle all the difficulties caused by my side of the family."
We need time to recompose
"For time to time, I'd very appreciate if my wife is not talking that much. Sometimes she spills all her problems right after I got home from work when I'm exhausted. I don't mean to be unsupportive to be a good listener, but it's like my brain is too tired she doesn't even give me a chance to take a breather."
I worry you'd share too much to your best friends
"My wife has a group of her best friends and they know each other since high school. They're very close, closer than her sister, I think. I trust her, but sometimes I worry that she might share too much information (and probably secrets) of our relationship and married life to them. I sometimes wonder what they talk about at their routine meet-up."
