It depends how close you're willing to be with her and how much you trust her. Intimate disclosure is part of a relationship, be it a good friendship or a romantic partnership.

It does of course involve risk. You are exposing part of yourself.

Is she telling you her darkest secret too?

Only you can judge when the time is right to take it further. You know her. Presumably you are learning to "read" her signals?

If you weigh up the losses risked against the possible gains, and the gains outweigh the loss, go for it. You are right that someone needs to start. Being mindful of the balance of disclosure is important though. You don't want the situation where one is repeatedly pouring their heart out and the other isn't at all. It's unbalanced.

You do have to start somewhere though.

Hope this is grist for the mill. The choice is yours alone. Pray about it perhaps. I would pray in this sort of situation. But then I pray in most situations.....

I'd say that it depends on how exciting the dark secret is!

If it has to do with another woman and your life with her, I'd say most definately leave it out!

Well, by definition no thread in a public forum is private. Though I'm addressed I hardly have a mortgage on advice for my good friend. He can pick and choose from the subsequent opinions that flow in.

Given a different set of circumstances to his, your advice would indeed be vital as you provided an important window into the female mind.

However in saying that I know of a woman that pestered her man for every detail about every previous woman.

Knowledge was power I guess.
