This is an experiment to see how honest people can be if they don't have to identify themselves. A question from one of my favorite blogs- Anonymous Truths.
The Rules:
1. All comments should be left anonymously.
2. Just because the comments are anonymous is NOT an excuse to leave an inappropriate or judgmental remark.
3. It is fine for a healthy dialog to take place in the comments section, but keep it clean, impersonal, and on track.
4. If you recognize someone’s answer, please keep it to yourself.
5. This is in NO WAY intended to be offensive or hurtful to anyone.
The Question:
Confession is good for the soul, so...

It depends on what you are confessing and to whom....
If you are confessing to a priest about the horrible things you have done in your marriage then go for it. If you are confessing to your spouse, you should know that it will end.
If you are confessing to the woman/man you love that you want him in your life then do it. Some things should be known.
...remember some things are best left unsaid.
This morning I walked the stairs because I didn't want to talk to a coworker.
Confession is good for the soul, so here is my confession: I claim to be a Christian, but absolutely cannot stand my husband's family sometimes. His dad is the definition of a stubborn, crotchety old man who ridicules people all the time, both parents complain all the time and both of them are hypochondriacs who go to the doctor about every little thing.
I have serious resentment for his dad and older brother for being negative and manipulative to my husband and making him feel like there's something wrong with him his whole life. Sometimes I see the effects of those behaviors because he learned how to respond to disagreements from them.
I hate that his family just kind of gave up on life and my husband is the only man who works hard. I resent that we have to pay for the whole family anytime we go to eat and they don't even pretend to offer once. They are embarrassing about coupons and asking to get stuff free at restaurants. I hate that my mother-in-law has to work two jobs and 60+ hours a week to support her husband, 35 year-old son who still lives at home and barely works, and 23-year-old son who just got an associates degree in four years. Lastly, I hate that I am the only one in the family who is not in serious denial that the little brother is gay.
My confession is: I am a huge hypocrite and have all kinds of resentment issues nobody knows about unless they read this comment.
Sometimes I say things that are snobby. I don't mean to be a snob. I just say things without thinking who I am talking to. I really need to work on that.
I confess...I am ready to be back in OKC there is a reason I live there and not in another state with all of my family. One can only take so much.
And I love the comment....remember, somethings are better left unsaid. This is very truthful, I just need to work on doing this a little more instead of always having to have the last word.
I'm a huge fan of fish sticks.
I know I should not think this way, but I hate that I open up my house to so many people, and no one ever returns the favor. I do not invite people over excepting them to invite me over, but sometimes it's nice to be invited to someone's house for lunch or dinner; instead of me always doing the inviting/cooking.
Every now and then it freaks me out that when I get married that's it. Game over. It's that one guy for the rest of my life. Not that I'm not crazy about him, but there's a certain attraction to the not knowing what's just around the corner of singledom.
