I've told a few secrets in the past and heard a few more. Some secrets were lame and some still haunt me today. I've thought about how to react to them and realized that whether those secrets were a big deal or no deal at all, I use my judgement for when it was better off to tell those secrets or not. I've found that secrets create stress like no other. I find this need to tell someone this secret to "get it off my back." Its a strange thing we humans do but we do it anyway. I tend to respect the secrets I'm told because I put myself in their place and know I would want to trust someone to help me out and not spill the beans. Like I said about judgement, you can't always keep secrets. One characteristic of people who commit suicide or mass murder at a school shooting is to joke about killing themselves or telling someone their kill list. I believe with good judgments the appropriate secrets can save lives or even other peoples character and we can keep it down about Bill liking Lisa.
