Full disclosure policies
Why is it that some people feel the need to share way too personal information way too early? I do believe that it is important to be honest in our friendships, but some things are better left for a more appropriate time. There are also those things that should simply never be mentioned. Sharing them serves no purpose, makes no difference, but can totally ruin a relationship if blurted out in a moment of full disclosure weakness. I was chatting with a friend and she confided that her new boyfriend had dropped a little bombshell on her over dinner. Obviously knowing a bit about ones former relationships is important but there is one thing that men always feel the need to share and women don't really want to hear. It's when guys brag, "My ex was a gymnast, yoga instructor, trapeze artist, contortionist, etc." Guys, WE DON"T WANT TO HEAR IT. Sure, it earns you major points with your guy friends. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink and all that. But with women? Can't you see that little bubble above our heads with a Kama Sutra type image in it followed by an image of us visiting the chiropractor? Sure we like to try new things as well as the next gal, but for most of us, the feet are never going to be tucked behind the head. Got it? It's too much work, we don't have time, we have real lives. That's just the way it is. You've had your moment in the sun. That's great. Just leave us out of it.
