Can Two People Keep a Secret?

Can Two People Keep a Secret?
My father told me the only secret I have is the one I don't tell nobody.

More than one person has come to me and said Rhonda, so and so asked me not to tell anybody this, but I know I can trust you not to let it go any further.

Maybe so, but on some level I feel a little resentful when someone expects me to keep track of what they told me not to tell anyone five or ten years ago. Why expect another person to keep a secret you can't keep yourself?

Say two people share a secret. How can one know the other will never go on a guilt trip or an honesty binge and feel the need to confess?

On the other hand, we all have a need to be known and accepted by at least one person on earth. Is there anyone that you would trust with your deepest secrets? If not, do you wish there were?
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
--Voltaire
