| Just health issues that we keep private for good reason. No one wants to know about my IBS, and how I crapped myself. My husband knows a limited amount. |

+1 he can’t hide it w friends or extended family when when all vacation. He tries to by “doing more office work” but that looks ridiculous and all his disappearing does too. It’s his parents family secret- most people on the paternal side have it and they hide it (via never doing new things or spending elongated time with others) and never talk about it. Ironically MIl keeps asking how the kids are doing w school, friends or talking as she tries to determine if it passes to girls... (it did to one). |

| We’ve been married for 34 years and we have nothing ugly to hide except for a few extra pounds and wrinkles. I know we are very blessed and I don’t take it for granted. |

| I don't know about ugly but we generally keep our fights to ourselves and our financial challenges to ourselves. Still, I tell almost everything to a couple close people like my sister and a best friend. DH doesn't like to talk out our issues much and if I didn't talk to someone I'd go crazy. |

Ugly? That is a strong word. Are these aspects of your sex life legal? |
