Sometimes in life, there are some secrets you take to the grave.

You keep secrets because they’re things that could rip someone’s life apart or damage a personal relationship you have.

As strange as it may sound, keeping a secret is one hell of a difficult task to do. Everyone got secrets.
Keeping secret can be so hard and difficult for so many people, to the extent that the only way out for them to relieve themselves off such a great burden will be just to spill it off without thinking of the outcome

I read a story on blog about a woman calling out her ex husband for being gay, well they had been married for over s decade, they've 3 kids too.
Some people applauded her for speaking up,

But the million dollar question is "what could be the repercussion for such a huge secret"?
The woman might be lying, considering the fact that they are huge lapses in her narrative, she said throughout their marriage which is more than 10 years, they only had sex 11 times, and they only had sex when they want to make baby, how did the man accurately knew when she's ovulating?

She might be right, she might be wrong too,don't underestimate a scorn and vindictive ex,they can go any length to bring you down, even the Bible said it "hell knows no fury like a woman's scorn".

But the truth is that in a bid to destroy her husband's reputation, which I think it's unnecessary, considering they've separated for bit long, she ended up hurting herself more.

Her children will be the most affected in this whole mess, the mental and psychological torture those children will go through might be suicidal, Nigeria is one of the most homophobic country, soon she'll see parents telling their children not to play with her kids or they might infect them with gayism, in school, those children will be bullied and made fun of, which isn't cool.

Even if she's right, the best step was to divorce him, move on with her life, just as she did and never to look back,somethings are better left unsaid, you let them dissipate.

Every bone in your body is telling you not to ever let certain secrets slip out. Your heart is wanting you to be honest but your brain is yelling at you to keep your big trap closed.

You listen to your brain because you know that some specific secrets are things that never need to be spoken of. The heart needs to sit down and chill.

Some of your secrets are skeletons that you need to keep in your closet. The after effects of telling these secrets could really turn your life, or a loved one’s, upside down and you don’t want that to happen.

Everybody has something to hide nobody is a saint, airing dirty laundry sometimes isn't worth, it rather will ruin lives, just pretend it didn't happen.
There is some truth to the age old saying,
Ignorance is bliss .

If no one ever finds out, you might be able to trick yourself into believing it never even happened. Whether they have the potential to ruin your own life, the lives of those around, or really just make you look bad, there are things best left in the dark where no one will ever find it.
