You always seem to say something out of turn or out of line. You just can't seem to keep other people's secrets.

There is a name for this kind of person, busybody. It is a matter of changing friends and start talking to persons who are appalled at the thought of tending to other people's business. Sometimes you can just tell the present friends that it is time to let the other people's business rest.

I would be blocking a hold on other peoples business around people who would go and tell what I said or what I heard others say. I often get it at work for They Say and they want me to pin it down to who said it.... I start to talk about myself and my interest like Oprah or Sally Jessy Raphel and flip the tables like what I am doing is so more of interest and I want them to know. I talked on Yahoo on the net or I zone into I am taking a class at school or the gossip about the stars and wear Red Glasses like Sally and shoot advice from the hip by my life experience of what I do not care gets out about me.
Its all about me!

I have a friend just like that. I am the exact opposite. I don't have time to bother about what that person is doing or saying. I tell her all the time how nosey she is and to stop but it doesn't work. I have learned to ignore it. She does keep my secrets we've been best friends for 18 years. Or she better be keeping them.............hmmmmmmmmm LOL

the best advice i can give you is the next time someone tries to tell you something or a secret dont even listen or just tell them you know what i dont want to hear because im not gonna be able to keep it to myself and i guarantee you that once you tell that person that they wont tell you anything.

Some people can't. If you're one of these people, then have the dignity to tell them not to tell you anything private & you love them too much to know their secrets.

you are what is known as a gossip. Stop talking about other ppl and get your own life. Once you have a life of your own, other ppl's business doesn't matter anymore cause your own is too important.
