Is it good to confess everything before marriage?

Honestly, No ... I don't think you need to confess everything, especially things that are not connected to your marriage. For example, would you confess that you have a huge crush on this guy when you're 13 ? I don't think that's necessary. Yes, you have to be honest to your potential husband, but not too honest. Some things are better forgotten and buried. Because I'm a Muslim, if I did something wrong in the past, and I feel guilt over it, I ask for forgiveness to God. I know that God would forgive me for everything. If I know that God is forgiving, I can move forward without feeling guilt and I can see the world with better lens, you know what I mean ? And past relationships are in the past, right now they are not important, especially if I have somebody that I want to marry. I would not want to know his past relationships, so I feel that I don't need to tell him every details. If your potential husband wants to know everything about you in the past, that is a sign of insecurity. That he doesn't really believe in you. So he wants to know who are the people in the past. That's not manly for me.

I agree with alkansa and golden eagle. No! Your past life is history and has made you the person you are today. If your fiancee wants to know all the nitty gritty details, they need to be reassured that you love them, but having that information to use against you in the future is a way for them to control you. You can love someone enough to marry them and live with them forever and sometime in the future when it doesn't matter anymore, you can let them in on your secrets if you want to, but don't let anyone force you to confess anything you don't feel good about. It's your life. :)

it would be a good idea to confess things to your partner before getting married. Because then there are no secrets that could end up destroying the marriage.

I believe you should confess about any that might concern of affect you partner whether it is your past, future, or present. e.g: You don't have to tell your partner that when you were 5 you used to eat your boggy. (just an example) As for other things, it is better to keep them for your self and let your partner discover them with time, to not let you marriage get dull.

I think the big things that could be shocking need to be confessed just because they always have a way of coming out sometime, whether it's with friends, ex-friends, work etc. Anything that might change a person's opinion of you should be out in the open before marriage, if not, then at some point your spouse will find out and it could get messy. Keep fun little secrets to yourself for now, so along the years you can share them for a laugh.

for me, it would be selective confession. confessing those that i think is likely to surface with time or pop up when staying together after marriage. i do not think that confessing every little details will be beneficial to your marriage. it may also backfired as your spouse may use it against you when u quarrel in future. there is nothing to feel guilty about and what matter most is the future, and honesty to toward each others after marriage. i learnt it after my first marriage and now i think i am coping well with my second marriage.

I think it's as honest as possible with the one you are marrying. I feel they have a right to know anything you think should be shared with them. Mostly because if they find out later and it's something is truly disturbing to them, then they will feel lied to, or that you didn't trust them enough to tell them this secret. I think if someone truly loves you they won't hold anything you did in your past before they knew you against you. They will love you for who you are now, not what you were or what you did.
