does your relationship with someone depend on...

elaborate?

A+ execution on this thread...

I actually care to find out more (seriously).

Reply posted so this thread is easier to find later today...

I think if you elaborate on this, we will have a better idea of what you're asking. I have had friends who have told me secrets and I would never tell them to others because I love them. In their own ways, those friendships were probably a bit reliant on me keeping my friends' secrets. So, my answer is maybe. When secrets are told in confidence I like to respect that notion and keep them secrets. I think that's what being a good friend is in most cases.

This is mysterious!

This.

whether or not you can keep their secret ?

What secret? Like they committed a heinous act? I'd totally turn them in.

Like they got drunk one night in college and had a one night stand? I probably wouldn't realize that was a secret. This is such a . . . there's no depth to this question and therefore it confuses me.

Regardless of what the secret is (even though my curiousity is SCREAMING for more info right now), if keeping that person's secret means outright lying to others, then you are putting yoursef in a bad situation.

We teach our children that it is wrong to lie, dishonesty is bad. If you purposefully and/or willingly lie for another person, then you are being a hypocrite when you tell your children not to lie or fib. We must strive to be good and proper examples for both our children and others around us that look to us as a role model.

totally, I have friends that I am only friends with, because I need them to take my secrets to the grave, but shhh, don't tell them that's why....... :devil:

Don't all relationships depend on trust and honesty?

No.

No.

Really? Care to elaborate?

I'm not at liberty to say...

Lmfao. What an *kitten*.


To answer the question, no if it's just everyday crap. Yes if it involves what happens in the bathroom and bedroom.

Just break up.

Call the police.

No.

Really? Care to elaborate?

There are so many types of relationships which people have that it would be rather unlikely that every single one of them relied on those two particular traits. The odds are very much against your claim.

Let me rephrase then: ALL Relationship should depend on Trust and Honesty. Without those two things, it is not likely that the relationship will mature and reach it's full potential.

you're secrets would be safe with me, because i probably wasnt listening in the first place

^^This! Ha, ha.
