Some of the relationships I have in my life are too complicated for me to bear. I have to say it does annoy me to a great extent that whatever information given, which should appropriately be kept under wraps, are most definitely passed on to the person's supposed companion (boy/girlfriend, family member, best friend). Sighs. Sometimes I feel it is optimal to keep most things to yourself or to the very few you have faith in. I have to remind myself to consider all the consequences and to draw up a payoff matrix if need be before expressing my truth.
If you promise to be a secret-keeper, stick to it. It is not good karma to spill the beans about something in a bad-mannered way when specifically told not to and then expect everything to be peachy after.
I think people should make it a point to not divulge information when angry or drunk or in their want to fit in into the conversation. Any sort of usual filtration just more or less disappears. Cheap shots are for the weak.
