LIFE

Dear Carol

"Dear Carol, my friend can't keep a secret"

Dear Carol,
I trusted a friend with a secret. I told her that I liked my guy friend, but that I didn't want him to know until I was ready. She went and told him. I want to trust her because she's my friend, but I just can't.
—Blabberfriend

Dear Blabberfriend,
If you have a tough time keeping a secret, you can bet the next person will, too, so beware of starting to many sentences with,"Don't tell anybody, but..." Can you tell her how you feel without being unduly harsh? Can you keep her as a friend but remember that she is not the go-to girl next time you have a burning secret?
