NOT FOR YOU BUDDY
Certain secrets are best kept to yourself. It’s not criminal if you don’t share it with your bestie. In fact, here are five ‘secrets’ you shouldn’t ever spill...
As kids, you might have pledged a sorority to share your darkest secrets with each other, and that must have been stamped as a lifelong bond back then. But at times, it’s okay to not tell your best friend everything under the sun. It doesn’t mean that you’re making an effort to disrespect the sacred bond of ‘friendship’. Here’s our list of what’s ‘alright’ to avoid telling your best friend.
THAT’S WHAT YOUR PARENTS TOLD ME
When you’ve known a friend for long, chances are their parents trust you more than them. So, when your bosom friend’s parents are telling you something they can’t discuss with their child, keep mum about it to your friend. It’s quite possible that your friend might feel threatened by your closeness to his/her parents.

I LIKED HIM TOO
Being the key organiser of your best friend’s hen night, you’ve listed a game of truth or dare in the party agenda. But at no level of intoxication should you say, ‘Bestie, I had a huge crush on your fiance’. You don’t want your BFF to feel insecure about you seducing her soul-mate. Leave the crush bit unsaid, unless your bestie is as cool as the tip of an iceberg.

I’M INVOLVED, OR MAYBE NOT
Sometimes you think you’re in a relationship, but are not quite sure. Or maybe there’s something special brewing up between a new guy and you, but it’s still raw. It’s okay not to confess your feelings, even to your bestie, until you’re sure.

EMM, YEAH I DID THAT
Consider this scenario: You went for an office conference to Goa, guzzled drinks, and before you knew it, made out with your married boss. You’re e m b a r r a s s e d about it. It’s okay if you keep this ‘little secret’ from your BFF, unless you want to make it a recurrent joke at get-togethers.

OOPS, I KNOW THAT ALREADY
“Guess what, my little brother is dating a girl and how I hate that woman!,” exclaimed your enraged BFF at a Sunday brunch. And you’ve almost choked on that spaghetti while deciding on ‘should she know, should she not’. Well, you did see her little brother coochie-cooing with this girl. But such exclusive yet unwanted trivia, especially about someone really close to her, is better left unsaid.
