The more I think about this, it's not that there's a right or wrong answer - it all comes down to what character and quality of a relationship you want to have. A person can make a very valid choice to have a relationship that is somewhat less connected than the "share everything, say everything" model, and that's fine.
My only qualification to this, though, would be that there needs to be an almost explicit agreement between the two SO's about this. If one SO is thinking it's the "share everything" model, but the other is keeping secrets, it's not going to work, long-term.
