i am not working, so just taking care of 2 children at my home, so nothing happened just ordinary day. Not much to tell story to my hubby, but some times my hubby not tell everything in his office. So, what do you thing? Is it should be all the event must to tell to our couple? There is should be a family have to be openness and discussion, isn't it?. do you feel something wrong if your hubby not telling anything at his office? Maybe having affair???

Hi Fchalida! I would like to say that first thing in any relation is trust and mutual understanding. Yes i share most of things with my lover but this does not mean that she ask every thing. She has complete trust on me that I am of her only and no one can take me away from her. It is not necessary that he discuss every thing with you as there are so many things...don't take him wrong at such conditions..keep a trust in him if you think that you have chosen a right man. If you think that he might have affair with someone else then it will be your fault first that you failed to keep him happy with yourself that he looked at others.. don't take me wrong please. You should try to keep a healthy relation with him and I think there should not be anything hidden between couple and they should share everything they can. While one can share their whole body with you and every part every time then how you can think that they are cheating you... I agree there are man who do so but i am not among such man and i don't even have problems in discussing everything with my lover or letting her check my mails or mobile or anything which can make her sure that i am her only but it comes to trust as well that how much you can trust your partner... Healthy discussion and talking with you openly is good and i think he should share... but keep trust in him as well not just being jealous...

chdsandeep,
You are right. First thing to build in relationship is trust.
Is not a must, that your couple will tell you everything that happens to his
life, everyday. And when he doesn't don't go thinking about it because Men,
like me.
i don't tell a everything to my woman and she is not ready to ask.

i always like to tell my story to my hubby,i tell him my happy or unhappy things happend at office.
when i am unhappy,he try his best to to make me smile,like prepare tasty food,tell jokes,have a walk and so on.
while my hubby like to tell me good news.he rarely tell me his stress or upset things.in my opinion,he can deal with his work very well.

Hi fchalida,
I think maybe you are worrying yourself too much over this one. I understand that you are home with the kids each day and many of your days are uneventful as far as having some good stories to tell at the end of the day. I would not jump to conclusions and assume that your hubby might be having an affair. I worked in an office for over 12 years and seriously, there really was not much to talk about when I got home. I answered phones and did a lot of paperwork and whatnot but very rarely did something happen that was worth talking about once I got home. It sounds to me like you need a break and you and your hubby should have a "date night". You know, hire a sitter and go out on a date and enjoy some time together as a couple.

In general, my husband and I both leave work at work. We rarely talk about our day at work, unless there is something that we just feel like sharing. I work for myself and he works arounf a bunch of men, so there is no need for jealousy or mistrust. It isn't that we are clueless as to what each other does all day, we just simply don't bring work home very often. I think that another reason we don't worry about what the other is up to all day long is that we always have a way to get ahold of each other. It is not uncommon for my husband to call me when he is on a break or eating his lunch, just to say, "hi".
We do discuss things that go on in the house each day. As a matter of fact, we try to talk about household things each night.
If my husband's behavior suddenly changed, I am sure I would begin to wonder if he were up to something, but as long as my instincts are telling me that everything is good, I won't worry.

I have to say yes. I do not like keeping things from my hubby so it is normal for me to tell him everything that has happened to me for the day. Of course there is a line to it of course but most of the time I say everything. That is how real I can be to my partner that I do not keep any little thing.

hello fchalida.I guess you should ask your husband how's his day in the office but not in a way that you sound like investigating.Sometimes men are not so open about their lives.They just keep quiet.It's their nature.But how was your relationship?Is there something going on that made you think he's having an affair?Common girl if there's no reason then why worry.Trust is very important in marriage and also open communication.Good luck in your married life.

I like when me and my fiance talks about our day but we do not always do this. When we don't I think it because there is not much to tell, and just because he works doesnt mean hes always going to have something to tell me when he comes home. If we don't talk about what went on during the day its okay, and I don't think much about it.

Hi Fchalida,
WE are so busy with our own lives every day, we are both working and it's only during night when we can share what happened the wholeday. we are happy and enthusiastic to share our little accomplishments, frustrations and issues and try to affirm each other.

I'm in a similar situation. My boyfriend lives four hours from me, and I have yet to start college. He rarely calls me [about twice a week] and when he does all that happens is he asks how I am, I tell him details, no matter how small, but then I ask how he's doing and he just gives a short answer. I too occasionally feel that he's hiding things from me. But it could just be that your husband forgets the details when he comes home, as he's so happy to be home to see his family that work leaves his mind for the night. I try not to over-react about my boyfriend not telling me much, because he might just not remember sometimes. Maybe you should ask him more questions? Like "Did anything funny happen today?" or find out the name of someone else who works there and ask how they are doing. That might get the conversation rolling enough to where he remembers things he'd like to tell you, but often forgets about. Perhaps just talk to him about your concerns, and ask something like "Is your office really boring, or are you so happy to see us when you come home you forget about it?" I wouldn't get serious though, as that could make him angry. [But I don't know your husband, so you would have to decide the best thing to do.]
Happy MyLotting!

learn to trust your husband.. it doesn't meant he have an affair just because he's not telling or sharing you all the details about the daily activities in his office..Or you can ask him, like how was his day..stuff like that,maybe he's exhausted from the office that's why he never have the chance to tell you all the details.
my husband works out of the country, he's not telling me all the details about who with him when he go out, or what happen in his work today?? some times he did share, some times I asked something about his job,and about his workmates. But its not a big deal for me. as long as I know that he 's faithful to me.Good luck.

I personally tell my significant other everything. I believe it creates a stronger bond between the both of us and it builds our relationship knowing we can tell each other everything, knowing we can trust each other.
