1. Should you discuss everything with your boyfriend?
Communication brings two people closer. On a tiring day, we all wish to come back to someone with whom we can share every tiny detail of our day. But sometimes we need to steer clear from discussing certain topics with a partner which has the tendency to break your relationship or cause bitterness between both. We can understand the urge to become an honest girlfriend who shares everything with her partner. However, being too honest could turn the tables and damage the emotional ties that you both share. To save your relationship from any damage, we have listed a few things that you should avoid discussing with your boyfriend.
2. That you don’t like his family, especially his mother
We all are very possessive when it comes to our parents. Engage in a healthy talk with his parents. There can be scenarios when you are offended by his mother’s remarks, in such cases, it is advisable to sort things instead of gaslighting. It is normal for him to discuss his disagreements with his parents but you must maintain a distance when it comes to complaining about them.

4. Secrets that your friend spilled over the coffee
A healthy relationship is built on the tiny little things that you share with your partner. That not only strengthens the bond between you but also establishes strong trust. But if your best friend just shared her deepest secret with you and you decide to gossip the entire conversation with your boyfriend then that’s a breach of trust. Of course, you trust him with all your secrets but you don’t also want to break your best friend’s confidence in you.
5. His finances
A perfect relationship is about walking the path together. It involves being on the same page. But discussing his expenses might not be a good idea. Nagging him for buying that expensive gadget or spending too much money during his outing with friends on a weekend might sound too ‘motherly’ from a boyfriend’s point of view. If he decides to pamper himself on a weekend then it should not be your main concern, right?
6. His ex-girlfriend
For a good cause let yesterday be a forgotten past. His ex-girlfriend might be your worst nightmare but discussing her fashion sense or her appearances might make you look a little bit insignificant. Venting about her not only wastes the precious time that you both share but also hampers your growth as an individual in a relationship.
