It’s never a good feeling when you discover your boyfriend is still on a dating site. Your immediate thoughts may be that he is cheating or that he’s looking for a way out of the relationship.

Before you jump to any conclusions or accuse of him of being unfaithful, consider how you found out about his dating profile in the first place. Did someone tell you they found your boyfriend on a dating app? If so, think about whether this person is someone you trust, or if they are they the kind of person who enjoys causing trouble. A good friend will be looking after your best interests, but an acquaintance may not have the best intentions in mind, which may even be discernible by the manner in which they broke the “news” to you.

Money is one of the biggest stressors for married couples, especially if one or both partners have bad spending habits and a lot of credit card debt.

While a certain degree of financial independence is good in a relationship, some individuals will actively hide purchases or debt from their spouse, either because they don’t want them to worry or they don’t want them to know what they’re spending that money on.

The New York Times recently reported on a secret society for women that masqueraded as a “bad-ass bitch boot camp.” Participants were told the group was created to empower women. Instead, it left many literally branded and psychologically scarred.

That secret sisterhood operated inside Nxivm, a self-help organization with courses they say are “designed to bring about greater self-fulfillment by eliminating psychological and emotional barriers.”

According to a 2016 Harris poll, almost half of Americans (42%) say they’ve committed some form of financial infidelity.

Financial infidelity is when your spouse lies to you about how money is being spent, or hides secret accounts from you, or makes significant spending decisions without your knowledge. Financial infidelity is much more common than sexual cheating, and often times equally as damaging to a relationship.

You conducted a background check on someone and found out he or she has a criminal conviction. It might come have come as a surprise but then you learn that 1 in 3 Americans has a criminal conviction and then you shift your surprise to the fact that this person didn’t tell you!

While some people might be keeping that secret for sinister reasons, others may have sympathetic reasons for keeping their criminal past hidden from you.

It was revealed recently that Huma Abedin, the estranged wife of disgraced ex-Congressman, Anthony Weiner, is writing a tell-all memoir – in which details about her husband’s sexting scandal will likely be exposed.

Abedin joins a group of public-eye individuals who’ve turned to writing “tell-all” books to share their personal side to a story, or reveal things about their past the public has never known.

But what makes someone want to “tell-all?” And why does it seem that people will still tell-all, even when their stories make them look bad or include compromising details about close family members or friends?
