In this story, a woman was left feeling angry and confused after she found out that the plans for her partner to make a long-distance move to receive medical treatment would not happen in the way that she thought they would. She had extended her time period of remote work at her job so she could move 500 miles away for two months with him and his brother, so that his brother could be a donor for a life-saving treatment.
However, she came across financial statements and an email that revealed that her partner and his brother had signed the lease on an apartment for two people several months ago. When she talked to him about it, it confirmed that he didn't expect her to join them. She wanted to be happy for him receiving treatment, but felt betrayed that he would keep this information from her.

Man signs 2 month lease with brother to get medical treatment 500 miles away, excludes partner of 10 years from contract: 'He acted like our shared plans were never real'
Secrets can cause the downfall of even the strongest relationships.
People like to say that what you don't know can't hurt you, but the problem is that it is much easier for the truth to be uncovered when lives are merged to the extent that they are in most serious relationships. Some do a pretty good job of hiding things like an affair or mounting debts, but the truth almost always comes out at one point or another. When that happens, it is simply a matter of damage control.
Being the person who was lied to or kept in the dark about something important can be incredibly upsetting, but that doesn't necessarily mean that their partner is going to try to comfort them. Situations can be complicated, but the reality is that when couples start hiding big things from one another, the relationship is in dangerously rocky territory. It might not last.
