everytime, when someone told me things like they got a plan, or little talk about someone they hate, or etc. and in the end, they never forgot telling me to keep it for them. in that situation, i always want to say:"ok, if you think it is personal or serious, don't talk about it in such a random way, or don't tell me anyway,but you can't ask me keep it for you after you told me." but this anwser may embarrass people, so i always say: ok , i will keep it for you. but it's bothering, it could be a psychological burden at least to me . how about you? how do you guys have the same problems?how do you deal with it??

I won't accept any responsibility I never asked for. If someone "confides" something to me without first asking me if I want to hear it, I cannot accept any responsibility for what I do with the information.

It's okay if someone tells me those things, I forget what they told anyways lol but whenever something comes up related to it then I do remember. Otherwise I don't think or remember too much about it.

I am a counselor and people say so many things to me and I keep it to myself. It is my professional commitment and ethics.
