I don't know that I've ever really thought about the word - but it means that someone is keeping something from you - it's like hording feelings or love from someone else - it's a negative word, but at the same time, it could be something that benefits you from time to time, for example, if I wanted more chips when I was little, my mom would withhold the chips - and pop I guess for that matter - and that was a good thing. I guess that word is a good one to use when talking about relationships too...such as, he withholds secrets...
