How good is your word?

if my friend tells me a secert that she dont want no body knowen i keep it that way.unless its a very deep secert like she is going to run away or do something stupid then i will try my best to stop her myself and if i cant then i am going to have to tell someone that can because i love my friends that i dont want to loose them.

i dont break any promises i made as much as possible...to be able to comply this..i only give promises to those things that i think i can fullfill in the near future..

I am a person who keep my words and never break any promises and its hard for me to say things that i can't or i can. I hate people who are not serious in their words and keep on doing what they feel like without looking it into the situation in the long run. Sometimes i hurt people as i am a person who keeps his word so cannot promise everything they want me to promise as those promises that are to be broken really bothers me. People say promises are made to be broken i agree but i am trying to prove that wrong to my loved ones. A promise is a Promise

I do keep all promises. I try to have lots of integrity and be someone they can trust at all times. The only exception would of course be in case of some kind of emergency, or if they were engaging in some type of self-destructive behavior and really needed help. But I never lie in terms of whether I will meet them somewhere or attend an event with them, or keep a secret, or not do something they told me would make them feel bad. Yes, I have been angry at friends for not staying true to their word but sometimes they feel just as bad that they didn't remember what they said until I reminded them after they went on and did something else. Even so, I am a person who has trouble forgiving, but I try to.

If I make a promise to my friend, I keep it no matter what. If they want me to keep a secret, then I will. If I say I'm going to be somewhere to meet them at a certain time, then I will BE there at that time. I expect that they extend the same courtesy to me in return. It's not a lot to ask. I can't think of when I've ever had that trust broken by anyone though I'm sure I have at some point. If so, it's trivial enough that I can't remember lol.

As much as possible, I don't make promises. I just tell them "I'll try" coz I don't want to give them the impression that am not true to what am saying should I fail their requests or my "promises". And I also want people to do the same to me. I mean, they don't have to promise me anything so long as they'll try doing their best.

Well I think my word is pertty good actualy! I always turn up when I say I will- orat least phone if there is some really good reason why i can't make it. I am also never late, and if someone gives me a confidence I don't gossip or spread their business around. Like you - I do expect the same in return though, and have often been disappointed when people don't treat me with the respect that I try to treat them.

I'd like to think my word is pretty good, for the simple fact that people pretty much tell me anything because they know I'm an impartial party and that I won't judge and only offer the most honest advice that I can give. That and I really don't tell anyone else, except the most trusted individual that I know and that's my partner and I know they aren't going to tell because they'll most likely forget it soon after I tell them about it. I've been hurt time and time again by friends that don't know how to keep things to themselves, so I make it a point not to go and tell people that will go and blab the information to everyone else. I know what type of damage it can do.

I do believe in keeping my promises as there is no point in making one if you are not going to hold up to your end of the bargain . I do mean what I say , when I tell someone I am going to do something then I do it , if for some reason I can't I usually try to give them enough time to find someone else or will even look for someone else for them so that when I let them know that I can't do whatever it is I said I would do but I found someone to help out or go with them if they are intersted . I have been hurt too many times in the past by friends not doing what they said they were going to do or by breaking my trusts in them , it hurts when this happens and I don't want to do this to someone else :)

I'm one of those people who do what they say whether it's a promise or not. But often times even if it's not asked for I'd promise just the same and I do it. I mean every single thing that I say and I expect the same from them...like the saying goes...do unto others what you want them do unto you. When I say "I promise" it means that I'm true to my word and I won't break the trust that was given to me. Sometimes if someone breaks my trust I'd get mad at them but I also balance everything first. Which means I try to find out first the reason why they broke their promise and compromise from there.

trust is very important in building friendship. If you dont know how to trust and you'll be very doubtful to your friends, they can feel that and they will stay away from you. Friends sre very important component in self development. so we know what must be done or not.

Yes, I do keep my promises. I think over before I make my promises because I don't want to let other people down (likewise I don't like to be let down). So far, I think I have been doing good in keeping my promises and actually I am quite happy with it. I do say honest words to my friends but it kinda depends on the situations, I do modify my words so that it sounds less harsh but still convey the same meaning to them. I do wish my friends are honest with me because that's what friends are for. Oh yes, I was very much disappointed by a person when I was in college. We were really good friends, spent a good amount of time together and shared almost everything. But I found out that she talked behind my back and used my stories to entertain other strangers/ people. I just don't trust her anymore and even she called me later the years telling me she wanted to be good friends again, I rehected her. Not because I am still mad or anything, it's just that the trust bondage is ruined and I can't make myself to trust her again.

I think if every one was to ask my friends and previous employers to discribe me in on word it would be RELIABLE..

I always keep my word, but I will admit to finding loopholes. I'm always as honest as possible but sometimes people get mad at me for my sideways thinking :)
