BLONDE911 answered Thursday May 12 2005, 9:23 pm: Dont tell her! She doesnt need to know! If she doesnt keep her mouth shut, then dont tell her! The best way to get your secrets out is writing in a journal! You can write everything in it and no one will go tell everyone!! Unless you show some one. Well i hope this helps! xoxo BLONDE911 [ BLONDE911's advice column | Ask BLONDE911 A Question ]

Daisy answered Thursday May 12 2005, 5:40 am: I know it's difficult when you really want to tell someone something but worried that they will then go and blab. What's worse is that you , in the end will probably be the one named the blab!! It's so frustrating. If I were you I wouldn't tell her stuff that really matters. Sometimes if I really need to get something off my chest and there isn't anyone I can talk to I write it down - it actually really helps and saves you from worrying that what you have told someone might spread. Hope I have helped a little [ Daisy's advice column | Ask Daisy A Question ]
not_your_star34 answered Wednesday May 11 2005, 9:50 pm: I know some people like this, too. For one, don't tell her anything very personal. You can tell your secrets to a close relative or a pet (Yeah, I know telling a secret to a pet may sound strange, but hey, you'll get your secret off your chest PLUS you're 100% sure they won't blab!) Do you have any friends from different schools or states? You can tell them your secrets, too. Or, if you can't tell ANYONE, get a journal with a lock on it and write all of your deep secrets in there. That helps me a lot.
You can still be her friend, just don't tell her your secrets.
Lovedoctor answered Wednesday May 11 2005, 6:45 pm: Try not to tell people like her important stuff that you wouldn't want any one else to know. Try not to tell anyone... unless you know that they'll keep it a secret. [ Lovedoctor's advice column | Ask Lovedoctor A Question ]
LoveNJstyle answered Wednesday May 11 2005, 5:37 pm: i have this problem with a lot of my friends! just dont tell her anything. if you want to tell someone, get a diary...works for me. also, somethings and just better left unsaid to anyone. try to find someone you can trust when you feel like you have to tell someone. hope i helped! <3 [ LoveNJstyle's advice column | Ask LoveNJstyle A Question ]
vermillion26 answered Wednesday May 11 2005, 5:36 pm: well, im assuming you've confronted her about this. if you haven't, thats the first step.
if she already knows how you feel and she is continuing to blab your personal secrets all over school, tell her "listen, i really want to be your friend, but i dont know if can trust you. you need to stop telling everyone private things about me." and go on from there. if she continues, id say, dump her. you dont want a friend who always tells your secrets. if you really want to remain friends with her then when you're itching to tell someone something find a more trustworthy friend to tell. im sure that her "blabbing" isnt malicious and that she has lots of other great qualities.
xdesireex0 answered Wednesday May 11 2005, 5:28 pm: Well I think that it depends on what type of person you are. You want to be friends, but you don't need her. Is she a good friend than other being blabby? If she is then just tell her that stuff you tell her you would like to keep private. And if she isn't just stop talking to her, but not completely off. Keep that line of communication open. Hope I helped!!

summerxbaybee answered Wednesday May 11 2005, 5:21 pm: Hey, well you know if shes driving you CRAZYY annoying, then you should just start kinda acting a bit annoyed, IF she doesnt get it then damn. Well hey when I was ab 14 I had the same prob like that, She drove me CRAZY! And she acted so hot for what she's not, okay back to the point, what we did, Well I found some others who felt the same way.. A girl that is open not totally good friends with her had said something.. A few guys found out, they said something too.. Explain to her in a nice way if you wana keep her ya know ? Well and if not just tell her straight up harshly, she may forgive you if shes understandable [ summerxbaybee's advice column | Ask summerxbaybee A Question ]
