About This Quote

In a marriage, we share everything. We share our living space, we share our thoughts and we even share our bed. We open up our heart to each other and we let them see everything about us. This is why it is so hard for a man and a woman to live alone.

It is so easy for people to hurt their partner by sharing things that shouldn’t be shared. However, sharing your feelings with your wife or husband, your best friend or your brother is always better than keeping them to yourself.
