Why is opening up so hard?

After 25 years of marriage you’d think that there hasn’t been any words or thoughts left unsaid. But when you think about the deep down thoughts or desiresa they just stay inside. Why is that? Are we embarrassed that we have these thoughts? Are we afraid of what the other might think? Are we worried about rejection? I Completely trust her and know we will never be without each other, however I hold back which makes me unhappy. Does she do the same?

I think we all reserve some private thoughts if we are honest. Why? A number of reasons one is they are our thoughts to share or to keep. It's not a bad thing. Unless your concealing something sinister,criminal illegal etc.
