Crisy agony auntWell its hard to keep secrets (Im a complete blabber mouth)but the best thing is not to think about it, I know that can be hard. You could also write it down on a piece of paper, write down all of your feelings and secrets and really let your heart out, then rip it up and put it in the bin it might help get some things off your chest. Listen, If you need to talk you could send me a private e-mail, remember your on anonymous so no one knows who you are, so it wouldnt hurt to talk to someone.

AJ jess ^..^ agony auntSecrets are hard to keep i know this from experience especially ones that are weighing you down, so i used this site and told someone that i thought would keep it and it helped lift the burden as i knew that it was confidential and they didnt know me specifically, so if you want anyone to talk to hun me and other people are here to help you :) if you wanna chat feel very free to message me i will be happy to reply xoxoxo jess

Laura1318 agony auntDon't tell your secrets to anyone, people may use it against you.

When you pray , tell your secrets to God and He will give you release from this burden. Jesus said , "cast your heavy burdens on to me....."

Don't carry too much excess baggage in your life. It will

weigh you down. Be free and it feels much better this way.

as one of the female readers said to tell someone that is far away from me in another country well i wouldn't trust anyone, ok cause a couple of times i had some people add me on msn and i started chatting to this girl and she said she is 12 and wants to be friends i said why not so i talked to her daily but then turns out that she was a prostertute and she swore and used abusive language very harshly after that i havent trusted many people, and after what my mate had said to me.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (5 January 2008):

ok well my secret is isn't to protect anyone, it's basically my secret so, it's to do with me and someone else, and my families secret well thats got loads of connections to lots of peoplem, but it aint bad or anything.

Well my secret was let out, in 2007 around june july time i told my mate and she turned out to do a sly one on me so then i told her it was a lie, she believed that it was a lie cause she couldn't even belive it was true, she thorught that other person never exsisted.

I'm scared to tell my one, and my family one i promised not to tell.

Neither secrets would cause pain, well actually my secret if i told that other person that is in involved then it depends on what that person says, but most likely NO! so it would cause me pain. Well erm.. cause i already told someone about my secret but it turned out, i got fooled, i think it would make things worser cause i can't go through that pain again that my so called mate put me through after telling her.

I rather keep it to myself cause if i look at matters at the moment they aint good so if i do let it out i think it will blab everywere and persumbely make matters worse for me alot.

So sorry i can't tell you on here either, so if you can't help it's ok i understand.

A female reader, Help 4 You =] United Kingdom +, writes (5 January 2008):

Hi,, Okay well I believe that although this is a secret its very unfair that this secret should be killing you inside so I honestly feel that you should tell someone how you feel; if you like you could tell someone on here; this may sound very weird but its easier to tell a complete stranger how you feel then a friend.

If i was in your current situation I would honestly tell someone just to take the ease off; but make sure its someone you trust !

i hope everything works out

I think it depends on the secret really. If it got revealed would it cause hurt and pain for somebody close. And you should also consider if the secret got out would it make the situation any better or any worse....

A female reader, LouLee United Kingdom +, writes (5 January 2008):

LouLee agony auntThats a bit of a tricky question to be honest. Do you want to keep your secret or do you want to tell someone and trust they don't tell anyone? If you have a secret but it's killing you inside the best bet would be is to tell someone you don't know. Any aunt/uncle on here for example as they would be supportive and can't tell anyone...good luck x

if you ever feel like you really need to talk to someone about it then you can always talk to someone who lives in a completely different country from you and you will definately never meet, say maybe a trusted or well known agony aunt of this website. you can tell them and their knowing swont effect you even if they (and i doubt they would) told their family or friends (but why would they if the secret doesnt concern them or anyone they know)
