I have always thought I was quite a good friend. I care about my friends enormously and would go to the ends of the earth for them. If I can help anyone out I will and I am always happy to listen if they need to vent. I give my honest opinion to people and if I am prepared to say something about someone, I am prepared to say it TO them as well.
It occurred to me tonight though, that I am pretty rubbish when it comes to keeping confidence. I don't blab to everyone but I rarely keep things entirely to myself, even if they ask me to. I can't be trusted. And who needs a friend that can't be trusted?
