Honestly? There is basically nothing I wouldn't tell my wife. I've been in relationships where I felt like I couldn't be completely honest and I would never put myself in that situation again.

If I don't tell her something, it's usually because it's not something that needs to be said and that she probably already knows.

This right here. Life is way too short to have a partner with whom one must conceal themselves. That's such a waste of energy and life capacity.

And if you're interested in developing deeper, more fulfilling intimate relationships, John Gottman's (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Gottman) research and publications are an excellent resource on honing your relationship skills.
