Do you think you should tell your secrets to a friend?

doingit4fun @doingit4fun (917) • United States 22 Nov 07

I usually don't like sharing secrets with a friend because I think if anything goes wrong in your friendship they could blackmail you or tell other people and make fun of you. Maybe it is just me who is insecure. What is your view...

doingit4fun I made a mistake in reading. It is 10,000 and not 1000 so you need 68 posts per day to get to 10000 by Jan 1st. Good luck. You need to sit for 4 hours everyday doing mylot to get anywhere near that goal.
