Do you have close friend? Is it not dangerous to tell everything your secrets to your friend? I heard always that when you have a close friend, it usually turned to be close or best enemy...

I have 2 best friends. I tell them everything. And they had told some of my secrets to others, it turned to a fight. But then it turned to a good thing somehow. Sometimes its good that your secrets come to public. :) It feels so good when you don't own secrets sometimes.

I agree with that to a point, because it also depends on the depth of your secret!

I have close friends but I keep some of my important secrets to myself. I guess it's because I've watched too many suspense/thriller movies that I got used to being a bit secretive. You'll never know, they may use it against you if they're that kind of people. There'll be no harm done if you prevent it from happening in the first place.

That is a tough one! I have 2 best friends and I tell them everything. So far nothing has come back to bite me in the butt! A girl that I did consider a best friend at one time as we had been friends with for a long time and I had a falling out, and she went and tried to tell my husband something that she thought he didn't know about, but he did know so it just made her look foolish and like a pot stirrer. Then we had a fight again after that incident and she went and told my husband that he deserved better then me. She did apologize for that, but I mean someone you had been friends with for more then 1/2 your life and especially someone who told you repeatedly over the years that they would always take your side and then they go and do that hurts DEEP. So needless to say that friend and I aren't friends anymore because we were growing apart, lacking in the communication department big time, and when she would get mad she would FLY off the handle and say very hurtful things. I'm not going to say that I'm perfect because I'm not, and I made my share of mistakes as well but it was just time to move on. I am glad though that we were mature enough to apologize to each other, accept each others apologies, and were able to move on from it with the closure we needed. I wouldn't say that now we are enemies, if I saw her walking down the street I would say hi but we don't phone, text, and see each other almost every day like we used to!

I can't say that the friendships I've lost they are my enemy just a really bad falling out that had us taking different paths is all....I say this because the best friend that I had a falling out with I made some terrible and huge mistakes but when I needed a friend the most I could always count on her as she was there through it all....I do have a couple really close friends well a few and I talk to them alot about things...

I have a best friend whom I told my secrets. We have been through worst of fights but we still end up becoming closer to each other than ever. I don't even feel the slightest fear that she might tell anyone any of the secrets we shared. Maybe I am just lucky that she is the type of person who keeps secrets no matter what and I love her for that. No matter how we fight at the end of the day we always say I'm sorry and become better friends.
