One of the many surprises I encounter when couples come for counseling is how little spouses know about each other. When they keep financial and health information from each other it lets me know that there are problems. When information is kept from the spouse, it sets the stage for secrets to develop. When secrets develop, they often lead to hidden sides of their lives that are kept hush hush.
Knowing the financial and health information is not an immediate guarantee of removing the cheating threat, although it helps. The smaller the hidden area, the smaller the likelihood of secrets developing.
