 Why can't certain people keep a secret?
Have you ever noticed that some people really enjoy telling things about you to others, even if you don't want such things to be public (and sometimes even tell them that it ought to stay secret)?
Do they merely reveal other people's secrets because they have nothing else to say? Or because they want to win other people's faith by telling them everything they know?
In time I have learned to never reveal any secret (that I want to keep secret) about me to others, even to those who seem to act like close friends, because something always slips out of their tongues. Always.
Yet I recently repeated that mistake and - voilą! - the whole block knows about my secret plans...
