In some cases I've seen, exposure at work was a case of revenge. Kind of like the need to punish the other person.
Personally, I think exposure should be done only to the immediate family involved like the OP's spouse. When it's done at work, you can jeopardize your spouse's career. And that goes far beyond the relationship.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
