16 Secrets People Will Never, EVER Tell Their Family

16 Secrets People Will Never, EVER Tell Their Family

Buzz Feeda day ago
Recently, BuzzFeed Community members shared the major secrets they're keeping from their family, and they range from devastating to super spicy. Here are some confessions that might leave your jaw hanging from shock:
"My body count is close to 100. My husband thinks it's almost 20. Another secret I have is that I had a sugar daddy for a while, and he was married. No one knew."
—Anonymous
"I'm bisexual. Only my straight best friend knows. But what she doesn't know is that I am also in love with her. I know this would never, ever be a possibility for something to happen with her, but I find myself getting jealous, feeling sad when she isn't around, and constantly wondering about her."
"I'm a 42-year-old married mother, and I'm head over heels in love with a 29-year-old guy that I used a hall pass on years ago. I want to leave my husband for him and really be together."
"I was in school when I got pregnant with my child. Two months prior, I stopped my birth control because I began having adverse reactions. I am now convinced it was due to the stress my boyfriend had put on me, because I had not had any problems before him. Anyway, I was considering an abortion because I wasn't financially ready, and I wasn't out of school yet. My then verbally abusive boyfriend found out about what I wanted to do, and he said that he wanted to be a father and that we would be alright. I felt incredible guilt; we got together a year after my father passed, and I was still grieving and vulnerable."
"Well, after the baby arrived, the abuse escalated in all forms. I got pregnant two more times after the first, and I secretly had two abortions because I became an abused single mother living in a two-parent home. Only three people close to me know, and two of them helped me pay for the procedures. I don't regret a thing."—Anonymous
"Since I turned 18 (I'm now 21), I'd disappear at night and hook up with resort workers every time we went on family vacation. They were often closer to my parents' ages than mine."
"I'm bisexual and have kissed and dated more women than men. Most of my family is very conservative and religious (they're Mormon), and I've gotten into arguments with my parents over LGBTQ+ issues many times before. My dad has even said that he won't attend a same-sex wedding. I've conceded that I will just never tell them I'm not entirely straight, and if I do end up marrying a man, they probably won't know until I post wedding photos."
"My best friend, my now ex-wife, and I used to get together and have threesomes. We had a great time and tried some interesting things. We made a couple of videos but never posted anything online. I eventually destroyed the videos because we were afraid of someone accidentally finding them. Then, we all agreed that we should stop before anything else happened. It was fun while it lasted, and I still think about it from time to time."
"I've been cheating on my husband with his dad for a year now. I feel so guilty, but we just can't stop."
—Anonymous, 36
"So, my husband and I have been swingers for 12 years, and I've picked up some random strangers on my own. We've spent tons of time in adult theaters, where I have anonymous sex with people. We were both raised in strong, Christian families, and my parents would DIE if they knew."
"Almost 20 years ago, my first husband manipulated me into having live cams in our house 24/7 so that he could start a website for members to watch us. It lasted six months before I had the courage to leave him. He was what used to be called a 'smutmaster.' He managed the websites, and I edited the videos. He did horrible things to me on those cameras, which were completely illegal and immoral, including sexually assaulting me with a weapon. Anything the viewers wanted, he would do, no matter how depraved. I now have a restraining order against him and have changed my name. My current husband and my best friend know about this, but no one else."
"My husband cheated on me with a sex worker while on a work trip when I was eight months pregnant with our first child. He confessed to me after he got concerned he'd gotten herpes, which caused me to go into labor. Our kiddo was born just over 26 hours later. He worked on himself, and we stayed together. My dad would never forgive my husband if he knew."
"My family will never know this, but I'm happy my uncle died. I've been unpacking this in therapy, but I feel like he is the reason why I can't remember anything from when I was 6 to 10 years old. I always got the creeps from him, and I'm glad he's gone."
—Anonymous
"I'm single and in my mid-30s. Because of that, I'm pretty sure that most of my family members think I'm either weird or a lost cause, but I might be on the Aroace spectrum (aromantic and asexual). I still haven't found a name that suits me, but all I know is that I don't think I want romance or sex — ever. Ever since I was a teenager, neither of those things has appealed to me for a wide variety of reasons. I have nothing to gain by explaining this to my family, though. My sister and most of my cousins are either married or engaged, so it really shouldn't matter whether my relationship status changes at all."
"I slept with my sister's husband. My husband was incarcerated, so when my sister's husband showed up at my door in the middle of the night, I let him in, and we had sex. He came back about a month later, expecting to have sex again. I answered the door but didn't let him in, as I was afraid someone would see his truck at my place. My sister will never find out."
"I'm not good at dating. Something about emotional intimacy to me is a real turn-off, but I do crave physical affection and touch. Because of that, I go to sex parties. They're fun, and the people there are really respectful. I get my craving for physical intimacy fulfilled in a perfectly fun, no-strings-attached way. I know if I told anybody that there would be some judgment, but I definitely know that if I told my family, they'd have a freakin' cow."
Lastly: "I'm a gay man and have been all my life. My family is well aware of it, but when I was 26 and living on my own, I had an affair with an older man who was married and went to our family church. He would call me weekly to come over to have sex and talk. He always left $200–300 on my nightstand, even though I told him it wasn't necessary. He would buy me extravagant gifts as well. He often worked out of town, so when he knew he was leaving, he'd make arrangements for me to go to the same town and stay with him. His wife and children never found out, and neither have my family. Twenty years later, we are still 'together,' and he has made a will to leave me something nice. Now, I am stressed about how to explain why he left me money! He tells me not to worry about it because nobody has to know except the executor and us."
—Anonymous, 52

15 Things From The '90s That Actually Sucked, According To People Who Experienced Them Firsthand

Recently, I asked the BuzzFeed Community about '90s things people are super nostalgic for — even though they weren't actually that great. Here are 15 of their top responses: 1."The freedom to smoke pretty much anywhere. Sounds great in theory, but goddamn, everyone and everything reeked of cigarettes all the time." —keetawnandon 2."Having to run back to the couch in order to not miss the TV show." —Anonymous, 41, Denver, CO 3."Fruit Stripe gum. Tastes great…for a few seconds." —ka3a4ka 4."Furbies! Yes, they were cute, and everyone wanted them, but when they woke you up in the middle of the night, they ended up in the laundry room or somewhere they couldn't find you! My mom eventually made us get rid of them all!" —Anonymous, 33, MN 5."I know some wish for a simpler time, but if you didn't have cable, it was slim pickings for entertainment unless you were able to go to Blockbuster regularly. Often, you just made do with the three or four VHS tapes you had, or what you could get from rabbit ears. Nowadays, despite it being overwhelming at times due to choice, I can usually find something to watch, even if I have already seen it." —bittermoon7351 "It was even worse if you lived somewhere far from civilization. Where I grew up in Ireland, we only had two channels on the TV (unless it got too windy, then we had none). There was one shop in the village that rented videos, but rarely anything new and not much of a selection, so by the time I was a teenager, we'd probably rented all of them more than once." —caelesto 6."While housing and food prices were much cheaper, technology of any sort was a lot more expensive. Small, heavy tube televisions would cost hundreds more than a large 4K panel today, and computers would cost as much as a car, and be rendered obsolete within months." —the_toast_of_you 7."Video games. Don't get me wrong, some were great, but most are not anymore. They were really hard, so you couldn't finish them in a single rental (thank you, Blockbuster). Or, if you could handle the difficulty, the games were short and could be finished in just a few hours. The controls weren't as good as you might remember they were either." —Anonymous 8."Lack of smartphones. I like being able to answer any question I have at any moment it arises. I like being able to call a family member in an emergency at any time, and there's a high chance they'll answer. I like looking at memes and watching videos. Admittedly, I am too young to remember a time before cell phones, but I do remember a time before smartphones, and I do prefer the latter." —sadiemendeztgm 9."Austin Powers." —Anonymous, 46 Essex, UK 10."ALL of the fashion. Flared jeans that soak up to your knee the second it rains, jelly sandals that basically give you trench foot, skintight polyester tube tops that ride up, then down, then up and down somehow, zig-zag hair parts that take an hour to perfect, and don't get me started on hair crimping…it's all bad. Please learn from our mistakes, children!" —Anonymous, 35, Boston 11."Having to go to your friend's house in an attempt to find them." —Anonymous, 35, AK 12."I was only five when the decade ended, so I have a little less '90s experience than older Millennials. However, it was much harder to find the answers to your questions. You'd discuss things with friends or family, and then just end on a cliffhanger. Or my mom would drop her catchphrase of, 'Look it up in the encyclopedia.' Sure, encyclopedias were full of a lot of topics, but there wasn't much depth. Sometimes you didn't even quite know what to look up, since your encyclopedic search was so limited." —Anonymous, 31, Pikesville, MD 13."Grunge music absolutely sucks and is so depressing." —Anonymous, 55 New Hampshire "I hate grunge. I hated it then, and I hate it now. That whiny-ass male-dominated genre of music was the worst. All melodic and catchy music, anything with dance vibes or synths was banished from alt radio almost overnight. Depeche Mode? Gone. You wanna hear Brit Pop? Nope. All Nirvana and Pearl Jam and Soundgarden. Our local alt music station STILL plays mostly grunge. If I hear another Alice In Chains song…" —Anonymous, 50, SoCal 14."I was 14 when 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' dropped. The video was sooooo different than anything else showing on MTV. Holy shit, was it powerful. It seemed like overnight, everybody looked like they quit bathing and only owned flannel." —Anonymous finally: "Limp Bizkit. They made music for angry 15-year-old boys, who didn't even know what they were angry at." —Anonymous, 49, NJ What's something about the '90s you definitely don't miss? Tell us all about it in the comments or the anonymous comments box below! Note: Some responses have been edited for length/clarity.

"20 Years Later And No One In My Life Has A Clue Except Me": People Are Anonymously Revealing A Secret They'll Take To The Grave, And I Wasn't Expecting Thiiiiiiissssssssss

Note: the story below mentions animal abuse and suicide. While it's totally normal to keep certain secrets close to the chest, sometimes, sometimes we just have to share them with the world in an anonymous way. So when Reddit user Several-Director5804 asked: "What's a secret you'll take to the grave, but would tell anonymously on Reddit?" I thought I would share their answers. Here's what they said below: 1."My mom confided that she had an affair with her mom's second husband. They planned to start a life together, but he died first. Jeez, Mom, you couldn't find ANYBODY else?!?" —Wise_Yam_1414 Related: 2."One of the times I told my parents I was going to spend the weekend in a sleepover at a friend's house, I instead had that friend drive me to the airport, where I'd booked a cheap flight to the UK so I could go watch a musical I'd also bought a ticket for. While I waited for the show, I ate lunch and also bought an illustrated edition of The Silmarillion. Once the show was over (worth every penny), I went back to the airport and waited there for my flight back. It was a very early morning flight back, but I was young then and figured I could pull off the all-nighter. Took the plane back home, my friend picked me up from the airport, spent the rest of the day at her house sleeping... and at night, my parents showed up and drove me home none the wiser." "I was 19. The musical was Les Misérables. I'm European, and this was before Brexit, so no need for a passport (although I did bring it just in case). I spent under 300 euros of my own savings, which I got from working part-time, on the whole thing. One flight was 22 euros and the other 47. Flights were about three hours." —Pterry_Pterodactyl 3."I never actually graduated from culinary school. I was short a math class, and they let me walk at graduation anyway. 20 years later, and no one in my life has a clue except me." —Purple-Adeptness-940 4."My biological grandpa was a war criminal. A school teacher in Japanese-occupied Korea during WW2, he forced his students to become Kamikaze pilots. Some survived the war and formed a lynch mob to hang him. Grandpa hid in the mountains and came back a year later as a dedicated communist guerrilla executing those former students, claiming they were colonial many more. He didn't survive the Korean War." —hwangleegta "My great-grandpa was one of the Nazis responsible for managing train schedules. He was imprisoned after the war for war crimes, but his pregnant wife attempted to die by suicide, so he was allowed to visit her. He fled, and his wife packed up the family and followed. They never faced any consequences." —mnbvcdo 5."I knew my husband was going to propose the day he did. He was acting 'off' as we were about to leave the house, and while he was in the bathroom, I felt his coat, and felt the ring box. He later refused to go without his coat even on a warm day as we were walking around, and I had to hide that I knew why. I still acted surprised and legit cried (no acting there!) when he did it and was beaming the rest of the day (week, month, today). But I will never tell him I knew beforehand that he was going to do it." —Azhchay Related: 6."It just feels wrong to say out loud, but losing a close friendship has impacted me more deeply and for far longer than my dad's death." —batwingsandbiceps "I'm going through cancer testing, and my best and only friend just ghosted me three weeks ago. I'm struggling." —FrogsAndFerrets 7."When I was 18, I helped my grandmother move into a nursing home. In her old house, tucked away in the back of a cedar chest, I found a small, locked metal box. The key was taped to the bottom. Inside were letters and a few faded photos of her with a man who wasn't my grandfather, along with a birth certificate for a baby boy I had never heard of. The dates showed he was born just a year before my own father. My grandmother passed away a few months later. On her deathbed, she was in and out of lucidity, but at one point she grabbed my hand, looked me dead in the eye, and said, 'Don't let him ruin them.' I knew exactly what she meant." "I did some digging online. I found him, her other son. He had a family, a good career, and seemed happy. He had his own life, completely separate and unaware of ours. My father has always idolized my grandmother, viewing her as a saint. My grandfather, who passed years earlier, was a good but difficult man, and my dad's relationship with him was strained. The image of his mother was the one constant, perfect thing in his life. I took the metal box out to a bonfire one night and burned everything. Every letter, every photo, and the birth certificate. I watched until it was all ash. I didn't do it for her; I did it for my dad. He deserves to keep the one perfect memory he has — And I condemned a man to never knowing his mother or his brother. I chose one family's happiness over another's truth. I don't know if it was the right decision, but I would make the same one again." —Big-Reporter7078 8."That I found out purely by accident that my ex's dad killed himself. Ex was a baby when his dad 'died of cancer.' That's what everyone was told. Through work, I met someone who grew up on the same street as the ex's family. I said, 'Oh, you must know the Smiths,' and the customer replied, 'Yes, very sad when he jumped off the railway bridge.' The customer, on seeing my shocked reaction, tried to backpedal, but it was too late. I will never tell my ex (we are good friends and share a son), it would destroy him." —DustInTheMachine Related: 9."I destroyed the engine of a brand-new truck by pouring a bag of sugar into it. They lived a couple of miles from us in the country, but their son and I rode the same bus. My dog liked to stand by the road when I got home to wait for my brother and me. He was a pit bull/border collie and exceptionally sweet. Even though they were miles away, they didn't like that he was part pit bull. He was in our fenced yard when my family went to the store and gone when we came home." "He limped home three days later, and it was clear he had been run over by an ATV because the tracks were clear on his little flank. His leg was broken and twisted, and he was in so much pain. We didn't have the money to get him fixed up, so he had to be put to sleep. Local cops said there was nothing we could do and that the family (who were the only ones in the area who had an ATV) claimed they were terrified of our 'vicious' dog. The son also smirked at us on the bus and pantomimed riding over something and made a dog yelping noise. We buried him in our yard, and my mom let me plant a lilac over his grave. A few months later, those assholes got a brand new truck, and I decided to get some justice for Rex. They didn't have any cameras, so one night I walked through the fields to their shitty little hobby farm with a 5-pound bag of sugar and poured it into the tank of their new truck and into the ATV. We did get a visit from the cops two days later, asking if we knew anything about some property destruction that had happened the other night. My mom told them no, that we had all been home. Pretty sure she knew what I did because the next time we went to the store, she asked me to go get another bag of sugar to replace the one I used, and she grinned at me. Haven't told anyone except my spouse what I did back then." —Rainbow-Mama "There is a special place in hell for people who abuse animals." —ariesleorising 10."My anonymous secret that I'll take to the grave is this: I had a chance to save a very important friendship, but my pride got in the way. We drifted apart over a petty misunderstanding, and I was waiting for the other person to make the first move. I was so convinced I was right that I couldn't bring myself to text 'I'm sorry.' We never spoke again. Now, I realize that the minor argument wasn't worth losing a person who was so important to me. It's one of the biggest regrets of my life, and I think about it every single day." —JustYourMuse 11."I stole that bag of Jolly Ranchers from the teacher's closet when we had a substitute in 6th grade, 35 years ago. Not a big crime, but when the teacher said our class would no longer get candy for doing extra credit, I joined in with the choir of kids arguing that it was unfair to punish the entire class. I was told that the principal himself stopped by to lecture the class about the situation the next day, but I was sick at home from eating too many Jolly Ranchers." —Stabastian 12."I know a woman through friends of friends of friends (we are barely acquaintances). She is not very nice, and her husband is not very nice. Last year, I saw her husband at a nice restaurant, making out with a woman who was clearly in her early 20s. I initially noticed them because they were being so inappropriate with each other that they stood out. Everyone in the restaurant was a little creeped out. Then I realized who the guy was. Normally, I would say something to the wife — I'm that type of person — but not this couple. They are mean and weird. I just have a gut feeling that somehow they would come after me. So, I see them once in a blue moon, with their three kids, and I say nothing. But I'll never forget the husband publicly playing 'Where's the beaver' with a much younger lady." —chaoticyetneurotic Related: 13."One time in high school, I told my parents I was staying after class to study with friends, but I actually hopped on a Greyhound bus to Vegas with less than $50 in my pocket. My only plan was to sneak into a Cirque du Soleil show because I was obsessed with acrobatics back then. I made it in by following a group of VIPs through the wrong door — no one checked me. I watched the entire show from the sound booth like I belonged there. Afterward, one of the tech guys asked me to help carry some cables (I guess he thought I was an intern), so I ended up backstage." "Long story short: I accidentally ate dinner with the cast, got photos in costume storage, and even rode in their shuttle back to the hotel. I panicked at 2 a.m. when I realized I had no way home, but some of the performers thought I actually was a new hire and offered me a ride halfway back toward my city. I finally caught another bus home, stumbled into first-period math the next morning, and no one ever found out. To this day, my parents think I was studying algebra." —Few_Channel_2294 14."While my ex-husband was dying, we fell back in love with each other. My kids don't know, and my current husband doesn't know that we carried on an emotional affair for the last several years of his life. Luckily, he had his cell phone locked up, so nobody found out. I quietly grieve him." —throeinitallaway3 finally, "I have risen through the ranks of engineering, IT, and now marketing with zero ability to code, program a router, etc, no background in finance, nothing.
