  1. Everything we buy, whether it’s clothes, shoes or beauty products, costs 20 percent more than we tell you.
  2. We think about sex (with you!) a lot.
  3. We’re nervous about commitment, too.
  4. Although we’re modern and independent, we still want you to be "the man."
  5. Our ex-boyfriends weren’t that terrible in bed.
  6. We’re scared that we’ll turn into our mothers.
  7. We want you to be jealous, but only a little.
  8. Yes, we fantasize about hot celebrity guys, but that doesn’t mean we want you to be them.
  9. We tell our girlfriends more than we admit to you (but less than you fear).
  10. We actually notice and appreciate all of the chores you do.
  11. We love you with all of our hearts, but still miss the fact that we’ll never have that falling-in-love sizzle and spark again.
  12. We’ll tell you we like your new haircut, even if it’s not your most flattering look.
  13. If one of our girlfriends tells us a juicy secret (say, an affair), chances are we're not going to rat her out and tell you.
  14. We may or may not tell you about that new pair of Louboutins hiding in the backseat.
  15. We keep it on the down low if we happen to strike up a conversation with an ex-flame during a run-in at the grocery store.
  16. We still fake our orgasms from time to time.
  17. Sometimes we’re still too shy to share our most erotic thoughts with you.
  18. We’re into our male coworker’s good looks, even though we would never act on those feelings.
  19. We still really enjoy using our vibrators from our single days.
  20. We notice that your butt doesn’t look quite as good in those jeans as it did 10 years ago.
  21. We may or may not have had a couple more premarital sex partners than we previously confessed.
  22. We occasionally make up excuses to avoid sex.
  23. We’ll never ever show you the pictures of us before we had our "deviated septums" fixed.
  24. There's a reason we keep those crazy party photos from college hidden.
  25. If we do spill our secrets to you (no matter how gut-wrenching they might be) all we can hope for is your acceptance and forgiveness.
