Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
My question is:
Are you a good secret keeper?
I think I am. I’m always tempted to tell someone but I’m afraid that it will get back to the person who told me the secret in the first place.

It depends on what it is. If its something said in trust its not repeated.
Jennifer @ J. Leigh Designz´s last blog ..WINNERS! Waterslide Bounce House, Smooshies Kit, and Trix Creative Gift Basket!
Yes, I am very good at keeping secrets. Of course my hubby knows most things
TheAngelForever´s last blog ..Agony of da feet be gone
Yes, I am a great secret keeper!
Jennifer´s last blog ..Comfort Food – Aloha Friday
I am, people tell me things all the time and most of the time I forget. Which is probably whey they tell me. I can definitely keep a secret though.
Jeremy´s last blog ..Aloha Friday – August 7th
I’m a great secret keeper but I do tell NY.
Although, when my daughter was in high school her friends would say, “I have to tell you something but you have to promise not to tell anyone.”
She would reply, “I tell my mom everything and if she thinks your mom should know she’ll tell her.”
People would still tell her their secrets and there were some I went to the mothers with. LOL!
Cathi´s last blog ..
Yes I am. I want to be trusted, so yes I do keep secrets.
Audrey´s last blog ..Aloha Friday #12
Nope, it’s best not to tell me. I try, but I just can’t keep secrets very well. I get to excited with the information
Louise´s last blog ..Back To School Get Cool For School Pre-school/Homeschool #giveaway
I think I am. I’ve kept some big and some small secrets. Unless it’s something that can harm the person telling me, then I’d share.
Kekibird´s last blog ..Aloha Friday #10
I am an excellent secret keeper! I lock it in my vault, and it does not come back out.
oh yes! lol
Pamela Kramer´s last blog ..Seventh.ink – Back To School Giveaway
WOW! Tough question K! I’d say I’m a good secret keeper. But gosh, it’s been a long time since anyone told me a juicy secret!….
Friday Hugs!
Kim H.´s last blog ..The Rehearsal.
I think so. Except I would probably tell my husband.
Sue´s last blog ..Alhoa Friday #5
The answer to this one is YES!!! I’m a firm believer that if you tell me something, you’re telling me because you want me to know. If you want someone else to know, you’ll tell them.
Vicki´s last blog ..Aloha Friday
Somebody else’s secrets – yes. Mine – not so much. With all 3 of my boys I could not wait to tell everyone that I was pregnant.
Shannon (The Mommy-Files)´s last blog ..Thankful Thursday
I actually have one friend who I tell almost everything to (my secrets and sometimes other peoples), but it hasn’t ever gone beyond him in the last 6 years so I think my secrets are safe with him!
Ugh. I am. And it hurts to keep them! I hate keeping secrets!!! By nature, I’m a blabber mouth, so whenever anyone asks me to keep a secret, I automatically tell them to stop saying anything! It’s too painful! LOL!
Jennifer @ It’s A Beauty Filled Life´s last blog ..Hello, Operator?
Oh yes. I can be trusted to keep a secret. Thanks for hosting this fun event. Blessings.

Jean Stockdale´s last blog ..Finer Things Friday
Yes I am a very good secret keeper. I wouldn’t want people telling my secrets either.
Melissa´s last blog ..Aloha Friday
I still carry many secrets from childhood. I am a devoted person. You have something to tell me that is private, it stays private. To quote the old lady from the movie Titanic, “A woman’s heart is a deep ocean of secrets.” Aloha and take care.
Yes, I think so. I didn’t used to be – but nowadays I can keep a secret pretty well. Nobody’s complained that I haven’t, anyway.
I am, but it’s extremely rare that someone confides in me. I just don’t invite confidences and I’m am not at all curious about other people’s private lives.
Michelle´s last blog ..Aloha Friday Question of the Week
I think i would say yes to your question…

I try to be!
pam´s last blog ..
no, not really =(
diana/sunshine´s last blog ..what’s your favorite…
Yes there are some secrets that I have kept for years.
Whenever someone tells me not to tell anyone, I really don’t. Except for my husband. I tell him everything, but he doesn’t tell anyone else.
Angela´s last blog ..We got it!
Secret keeping isn’t my specialty. I don’t gossip, but I tend to assume that others have the same burning curiosity as me and to underestimate exactly HOW secret a secret is supposed to be. Luckily, there aren’t many secrets to be had in my family, so I guess I manage alright!
Mika´s last blog ..Aloha Friday #1
Yes =)
Ave @ Made In Canarias´s last blog ..Aloha Friday #4
Yes, I am. If I’m asked to keep a secret, I keep it.
Baba´s last blog ..Welcome to FeedBurner
Sometimes I am, sometimes I not. I guess it depends on the secret.
I am. can’t say:-)
AuntieE´s last blog ..Aloha Friday#19 -Memes
I am a great secret keeper but that means I seem to be privy to more than my share of them. Enough already!
blueviolet´s last blog ..Winner – Quality Chopstick Gift Set!
Yeah, I am always afraid it will come back and haunt me so I keep the secret.
Nina´s last blog ..WORKING (ALOHA FRIDAY)
Yes! Although usually I’ll bring my husband in to my confidence if it’s really good. He’s a good secret keeper too.
I think I’m pretty good at keeping secrets. The only person I might tell would be my husband, unless the person specifically asked me not to.

Brittany´s last blog ..Aloha Friday #7
I’d like to think so. In my profession (psychotherapist) I’ve learned to keep other people’s secrets for years. I think it’s a sign of respect
ParentingPink´s last blog ..Aloha Friday: Secret “No-No.”
Yes. Sometimes it gets hard, but for the most part I can keep a secret.
Mama in Suburbia´s last blog ..Wordless Wednesday #4 – The fruits (and veges) of my labor
I am a good secret keeper. I do have a hard time waiting to give gifts though. I usually stick it out, but always want to give them right away.
BTW, your blog looks great
Sweet Serendipity´s last blog ..Aloha Friday
Hi Kailani,
I put in the wrong link for Aloha Friday. I meant to put one about my giveaway. I am hesitant to put another one on so I was wondering if you could delete it? In any case, if you don’t have time, I understand. I’ll just leave it as is. Gees, my first one and I mess up.
Puna´s last blog ..Bloggy-versary Thoughts
Me of course I am, do you have a good one to tell me?
Ric´s last blog ..Aloha Friday!
Oh, yes. I can keep a secret…although…it KILLS me to not be able to say anything sometimes.
I am…sometime to the point of annoyance because I don’t let on at all…
LZ´s last blog ..Aloha Friday: Goodie Bags!
I am not so good at keeping secrets. If it is really important I can do it, but it sure is hard!
Abby´s last blog ..Aloha Friday!-8/7/09
I am a good secret keeper!
Mimi´s last blog ..Disparate and Multifarious
my problem is I always tell just one person then it travels from there so I would say no
Yes– I think I am. =)
Happy Friday & have a great weekend!
Jen´s last blog ..Alonha Friday: Superstitious?
Not really.
Rita´s last blog ..Get Ready for Campus
I am one of the best secert keepers around. I have found it well worth it to keep someone’s secret because a GOOD friend you can confide in is very hard to find!
Swoozie´s last blog ..Aloha Friday!
I’m an excellent secret keeper – I figure if someone specifies it’s a secret or ‘just between us’, it’s not mine to share with anyone else.
Stacy (the Random Cool Chick)´s last blog ..Friday Fragment Freewrite Fitness VGNO Aloha…Yeah, I’m doing some Cramming
I can keep a secret if it’s something really important. I am awful about Christmas presents though. I get so excited I nearly spill the beans before I give someone the gift!
shelly ´s last blog ..Aloha Friday: What are You Reading Right Now?
i like to think of myself as a good secret keeper the only thing is though there is very little i keep from my husband but i like to think of it as sharing information with the other half of myself.
Erica´s last blog ..Aloha Friday 8/7
It really depends on what the secret is and how it telling would actually affect the other person.
Breas Mommy´s last blog ..Return to Aloha Friday?
It depends on if they tell me not to tell anyone. I don’t usually tell anyone except my husband. Which he doesn’t say anything either, so yes and no.
Brandi´s last blog ..Aloha Friday…
Yes, most definitely unless it has to do with health or breaking the law. Like when my nieces were younger. They are 7 years younger then me…I always told them that they could tell me anything but if they were doing some thing dangerous, illegal or immoral all bets were off. They definitely grew up respecting that. It helped my sisters to relax knowing I knew all the good inside scoop, lol
IE Mommy´s last blog ..This IS SOOOO LAME!
No. I am AWFUL. I have the biggest mouth, I swear… :-X
Jenni Jiggety´s last blog ..Aloha Yawn Day… I mean Friday… Zzzzzzzzz

Stephanie´s last blog ..Aloha Friday
I’m going to give myself a very solid “sometimes”.
Melissa´s last blog ..

Megan´s last blog ..Aloha Friday
I can keep a secret, but not from my husband. He knows EVERYTHING.
Michelle´s last blog ..Aloha Friday – Back to School
I am for the most part a good secret keeper…I always tell my husband so that I can tell that 1 person…but he is a good secret keeper too!
Kind of …
If it is keeping it from my significant other.. I’m not so good!
I tell him everything. (Unless it’s money.. then I tell him NOTHING. Heh)

I am a GREAT secret keeper!
Mighty M´s last blog ..wordless wednesday: the rest of us…
the truth is .. I am good at keeping secrets!
Generally, yes…but I can’t keep anything from my husband!
Hmm….yes? Probably. But you must make absolutely, DEFINITELY certain I know it’s a secret. If not, then no. I’m rotten at it.
Aunt LoLo´s last blog ..Fitness/Aloha Friday
I consider myself to be a decent secret keeper. I mean if it is something small I might tell someone but if it is a big deal I’ll stay quiet.
Catherine @ The Blonde Diaries´s last blog ..Aloha Friday – August 7, 2009

People from nature tend to share secrets with other people just to look more interesting or to be in the center of a discussion
