Yes I can. I can keep secrets about people that I really care about and I think it may hurt their feelings if I told. Now if I don't like you it would be another story.

But even if you didn't like that person, you still have been friends with him, even just before... And I'm sure you made a promise of not telling it to anybody... Will you just break the promise of friendship just because your enemies now..? Remember, a promise is a promise... Whether you're friends or not...

I have kept many secrets. I think it really does depend on the secret, and I will explain. There are secrets that aren't good to keep, because of the fact that they could probably help others or help the person who told it. Therefore, in that case I would not keep that secret. There are secrets that I have shared without naming names. Therefore, in that case I still feel that I am keeping the secret because I did not reveal who shared it with me. Nonetheless, I believe it shows character if you are able to keep a "good" secret.

Back in high school I thought one of the most annoying things you can be involved in was secret telling. And it still annoys me. I personally wouldn't want to share a secret with anybody, but that's just me. The ones that were placed in my hands I did keep. I understand why secrets are, but I don't like being let in on one. It's like a weird VIP pass or something, lol.

i guess secrets are made to those who can just understand it... Secrets are not for everybody... That's why they are called as such...

Yes, i do keep secret. But I'll see if that's a secret to keep or not. Some secrets are not meant to keep. But I'll let the person know before i tell anyone else. I will let him/her know why I can't this secret.
Btw, there are just sometimes when they did not mention "this is a secret", so is this consider as a secret?

Don't try to know it yourself... If you're having doubt about it, try to ask the person first if you can tell it to anybody else... Cause there are something things that are understood to be secrets... and i would suggest be sensitive enough to know it...

My friends and even casual acquaintances know what ever they tell me stays with me. If they want someone else to know something about them, it's up to them to tell it. I've had co-workers ask me if I knew such and such about so and so. When I said yes, I always got "Why didn't you tell me"? It simply wasn't for me to tell!
