It's no secret that we all have secrets. Some of them we hide from the whole world, while others just from certain people. For instance, maybe we spill our guts about something to our friends, but hide it from others in our lives.

Some time ago, Reddit users asked folks to share what kind of secrets they never told their family members. Many people joined in with their stories. Apparently, sometimes secrets you hide from your family don't have to be hidden from the online world.

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families That my dog saved my life. When I was 14 I was pretty depressed, and after a particularly difficult day at school (I was not exactly popular) I grabbed some rope from my garage and planned on hanging myself. I started getting it set up, but my dog came running in and wanted to play tug of war with the rope.

If he didn’t do that, I wouldn’t be here today. It’s hard for me to type this because I’m putting him down in a few minutes. He has been living in pain for a long time and has reached the end of his life. I’m crying really f*****g hard right now but I know it’s the right thing to do.

They really are amazing. Dogs, cats, parrots, lizards, fishies , etc. My 17yearold cat was my reason to live and he died last month. I have a 3year old cat he raised so she's sort of his legacy I have to take care of now. It's hell, worst fear realised itself and yet here i am 😿

Mostly correct, not the master part though. I imagine it would go like "My job here is done, I have to go now. Please continue to live a good life, furless sibling on two legs who makes good food and pets me."

It hurts so much when we have to make that decision even though we know it's the right one and you don't want them to be in pain anymore. I had a cat that was almost 18 and a dog that was 15.5 when I had to have them put to sleep about a year apart.

Better to let go than to have them suffer just so you feel better. There's a company called Paw Prints, they will take a clay print of your dogs paw, a clipping of it's fur and return them with it's ashes. Then you can buy a relicquary that holds a small amount of ash and have them with you forever. I wear Hera everyday.

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families That my now-husband supported both of us completely while I was in med school (we were only dating 1 year when this arrangement started, we got married 2 weeks after graduation). My parents think I took out loans to cover rent, books, food, etc...but the husband and I had a serious conversation about it and he made enough money to support both of us without more loans.

They'd be disappointed because they always wanted me to be independent, but it worked out in the end for us.

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families My mom does this thing where she remembers my youth way different than it happned, mostly to protect her psyche I think. So really I don't hide anything from her so much as I don't confront her with the awful reality of it all, how many emotional problems she saddled me with, how unprepared for life she left me.

I mean don't get me wrong, I want to. But I just don't see what good it'd do.

Nearly all of us have some sort of secret. In fact, some say that the average person has around 13 secrets at any given time. 

While some secrets can be quite extreme, others don’t have to be daunting. It can be something that is simply no one else’s business – for instance, an insignificant detail about their character a person doesn’t like telling others about.

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families So everybody wrote kinda depressing things in here... but for the past two years I’ve been pulling a “Santa” on my parents by buying gifts for them (going to the mall w/ my friends) and then putting them under the tree when they are all asleep... its still a family secret and I don’t know if they suspect me. But it’s really funny, highly recommend if you are a good liar. Make sure you buy new wrapping paper too, so they don’t recognize it.

Today’s list is a perfect example of this. In it, you can find plenty of secrets people have kept hidden from their families, and they range from wholesome to frankly a little bit disturbing or sad. 

Here, an individual saying that he secretly leaves Santa gifts for his parents is wholesome. Then, there are those in the middle, quite common secrets, like skipping classes, smoking or orientation. And then there are those about hidden hatred, physical and mental illnesses, and so on.

There are quite a few reasons why people keep secrets. Actually, the main one, which basically covers all of the others under its umbrella, is to protect oneself. 

After all, some actions a person has done and now is hiding can be viewed as socially unacceptable or even immoral. Like if they did something criminal – like theft, harming someone, consuming something, or something else. 

Then, people also could be simply ashamed to disclose what they’re hiding. Maybe they’re feeling something for someone and they’re afraid to get rejected, or perhaps they have done something embarrassing, and so on.

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families That I'm an atheist.

Living in the south, they're both extremely conservative, highly religious people. My dad has actually recently become a pastor. I was raised in church and sent to a private Christian school. It k**ls me to spend time with them because the only thing they seem to be able to talk about is church gossip.

They're the kind of people that make personal choices like this about themselves. I don't think they have any idea, and if they were to ever find out, I don't think I would ever hear the end of how they believe that they failed as parents. I think they would just spend the rest of their lives trying to "fix" me.

So, I just avoid speaking to them as much as possible. It's sad, really.

Another reason why people keep secrets can be because it can ruin their existing relationships.

Like a kid being afraid to come out to their parents or peers, as they might react very poorly, or a person being fearful to confess romantic feelings to a friend, possibly ruining their friendship. Confessing to a lie can also negatively affect a relationship and, in the process, the person themselves.

And that’s just a few mentioned reasons – there are plenty more. Ultimately, people are complicated, which sometimes makes providing explanations for their actions complicated as well.

What makes the whole secrets deal even more intricate is the fact that while revealing them can hurt a person, keeping them can too. For instance, it can make a person upset or even stressed, which negatively impacts their mental health. 

Stress can also hurt physical health too – boosting blood pressure, inhibiting sleep, and even increasing chronic pain. Doesn’t sound good, does it? 

Well, it’s always important to look within yourself and figure out whether it’s more beneficial for you to share the secret or hide it. Or perhaps figure out who to share the secret with. Like in this list, they hid these things from their families but didn’t shy away from spilling them online. 

Do you have some secret that you want to share on the internet? You can do that in the comments!

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families My family have a rough background, a lot of violence and substance use problems. I left home at 16, haven't spoken to them since, and after seven years of university have a pretty high-paying job.

I have to constantly ask websites to take down my full name because if my family found out, I'd be swamped with messages asking for money that would go straight to alcohol and ice. They already have an idea after I didn't catch a result fast enough, so it doesn't really matter and I loosened up my social media. But I still hide my income.

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families This is going to sound REALLY stupid, but i have always been hiding the fact that i do want a relationship/family one day. It started out with being young and finding that kind of stuff awkward so i never showed any interest in boys. But now i'm in my early 20s, i still keep quiet about it because i dont want my mother to think that im sad about missing out on relationships, because that would make HER sad. I have always suffered from very severe social anxiety, and depression for years, so i dont see myself ever having a relationship. I'd rather have her believe i'm immature/asexual than for her to think i feel lonely and sad. It's the weirdest secret ever, i know. Then again, expressing my desire to become a crazy cat lady instead of having a family isnt THAT much of a lie...i just leave out the part that i wanna be a crazy cat lady WITH a family.

I don't think protecting the people we love is weird. I do hope you can push yourself a little outside your comfort zone. Meeting new people is terrifying but places you're already interested in (libraries, gaming stores, coffee shops, whatever) are a great way to find people you already have something in common with.

It depends on the family. I know several of my 2 daughter's social media accounts and see their stuff when they link me to it. Sometimes I ask about the stuff they've posted, sometimes they ask about my stuff. My kids know they can tell their dad and I anything ( hope they remember that) and we wouldn't turn our back on them (as long as they don't turn into mango-mussolini worshiping people and actively support hurting others just to keep power, and yes, we've talked about this, both seriously and as a joke).

27 Juicy Stories Of People’s Secrets That They Hid From Their Families I dropped out of college. It was never-ending, and I was exhausted. They forced me into Graphic Design, and while I don't mind it, I'd prefer to never do it professionally- I'm more of a freelancer.

They wanted their only kid to go to college and graduate, and I couldn't even give them that.

It sounds like there's a lot of guilt here. At some point we have to stop living the lives our parents want for us and start living our own. I hope they find a way to tell their parents what's happening.
