Lies of Omission

So, I don't write often about my person issues in my life because who wants to read a bunch of negativity.  However, I do have a question.  

Today I shared some information with my spouse.  Just regular old information, nothing he asked about, nothing of any value, just plain old basic information. He got upset over the content of the information.  I asked if he would have rathered I didn't share the info.  

His reply was yes, I you should have told me, not telling me would have been a lie by omission.  

Now, what i am wondering is, is that really a lie by omission?  There are things that occur each and every day that we don't tell people.  I don't think those things are lies by omission.  A lie of omission is purposely keeping information to disillusion a person.  

Enough of that.
