When your significant other talks about your private information in front of his friends..

Do you get offended or do you not care? What if it's something you're really insecure about? What if it's just stuff you don't want them to know about you since you're not their friends? What would you do if this happens to you and do you do it to your significant other?

My ex husband use to do this to me he would tell anyone and everyone he could about my medical problems which pissed me off. If I wanted everyone to know I would have told them myself. After I left him for other reasons he posted publicly on his Facebook about my medical issues where the WHOLE world could see. Needless to say I freaked on him over it all. He knew I wanted no one close to me knowing them but he didn't seem to care. No I watch who I tell what, he was my husband he was suppose to be trusted yeah wrong!

My SO and I haven't explicitly discussed our boundaries with respect to this, but my general policy is not to discuss the details of our relationship with friends until we've both agreed that this is okay. That said, if I found out that my SO had been talking about our "private information," as you put it, I don't think I could be terribly upset (although I might feel a little awkward and not-so-happy that they didn't check with me first), precisely because we haven't set those boundaries yet.

I am blessed with a wife who keeps things private. She doesn't share personal info about me with anyone unless I bring it up first.

He told everyone about almost everything. I am more private and keep things to myself...It upset me but I now realize it makes him look untrustworthy and like a big gossip.

My husband is very courteous and mentions nothing personal about me to anyone else without my permission.

I made a comment to my husband about something my SIL did, the next time we saw her he was all, "Stormy mentioned yadda yadda yadda". I was like not cool, bro. I just felt super uncomfortable.

I would not be offended, but I might be upset about it later and tell him about it. I would never make a scene in front of his friends however. I would never want that form him so I wouldn't do that to him.

It's happened a couple times and makes me feel really uncomfortable, but I wait until later to talk with him about it so that it doesn't cause a scene.

I don't like to make scenes in public either. I usually am just uncomfortable, laugh it off, make it less awkward for everyone, and then talk to him about it later politely after I am not feeling uncomfortable about it. It usually something insignificant that he brings up, and it's usually in front of strangers. Like getting a last jab in from an argument in the car as we are approaching the waitress to be seated at a restaurant. I hatttte that, arguing in public is just unnecessary but it happens from time to time!

Nobody should be talking about things I tell them in confidence...

IT DEPENDS... SOMETIMES I GET OFFENDED OR FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE.. OTHER TIMES I DONT REALLY CARE.. JUST DEPENDS ON WHAT HE'S TELLING THEM.

Don't care for it

I can't really decide between the voting poll choices, but I know that my guy gets very irritated with me because I like to talk through problems with others. He feels like my friends might hate him or that I have changed people's mind about him, but he knows that if he's going to do something to upset me somebody will hear about it.

However, on little things about him that he's embarrased to tell others, I keep it to myself. I usually only say things when they are weighing on my emotions.

My boyfriend tries not to tell a lot about me, but I don't care about most of the things he tells. I'd be super upset about him telling people about some things, but he usually doesn't.

There's some stuff I would be really upset about, but most things I don't really care. Anything sexual I don't care and actually encourage my partners to talk about sex with their friends.

My boyfriend knows what he can and can't talk about as far as the personal things we've told each other. He'd never do something like that and I wouldn't do that to him.

I guess it depends on what's being told. My ex liked to talk way too much about our problems. I constantly felt like I was facing a jury when I hung out with her friends. She also shared everything else that I wanted to keep private, but her sharing our relationship problems and my issues with anxiety REALLY pissed me off.

Depends. He's said a few things before (or tried to) that I wasn't ok with. I know for a fact that I upset him sometimes with the things I say, we have VASTLY different boundary levels and sometimes I have no clue that what I'm saying is bothering him.

I think all gay guys gossip with their friends about how hung the last guy they slept with was, so if that ever develops into a relationship then everything is pretty much out in the open already.

My hubby is quite private so I haven't had many situations like that but I probably would care too much. I'm alot more open then him.

I don't think we've ever really had a situation like that. He talks about our sex life sometimes and shows my nudes to his friends, but I'm totally into that so it's perfectly fine with me. Plus I'm generally pretty open and laid back about my personal life.

I get offended but usually don't say anything about it and just try to get over it.
