DavidD250 View Profile History	When do you choose to tell a guy friend your deepest secrets? Posted : 10 Sep, 2012 08:27 PM A certain amount of trust or feel he's got enough knowledge? What does it take to trust someone with that, even when you don't know enough about him? I have a friend who has shared with me things such as a certain sin that she did and how she was mistreated at a job she had. We are not the closest of friends yet I think, but we haven't talked that much lately until now. We even talked about how to battle sexual temptations. But the first time we met around a year ago or so, we seemed to hit it off. Talking about different things. And she has contacted me for help or advice a few times since then. I guess i am trying to find out if she trusts me or even likes me as more than a friend now, since she's willing to reveal that much about herself. She does say she does like talking deeply about things. Post Reply

I would have to be almost 100% convinced by the Lord that it was okay to do so. Usually when you can't offer someone something they become very bitter with you and are taken over by sinful thoughts, because they're not perfect and they choose to divulge things they might not normally because of jealousy/envy/anger and all the other baddies. I'd tell any woman to guard her heart with all diligence. Proverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Post Reply

And I am also curious why she would share these things with me when she has other friends, especially girls to share them with. Or is it maybe she had no one else to talk to then? Post Reply

bcpianogal View Profile History	When do you choose to tell a guy friend your deepest secrets? Posted : 11 Sep, 2012 07:50 AM I wouldn't tell a guy friend my deepest secrets. I might tell a really, really, really close girl friend some of those secrets, if I really trusted her and knew that she would pray for me. But some things just shouldn't be shared with a guy friend because of the very nature of those secrets. Emotional intimacy is just one step away from physical intimacy. Now if I were planning to marry a guy, that would be different. He would be more than a friend, and there might be things that he would need to know before the wedding...things that might affect the relationship/marriage long into the future should not be kept secret.

I wouldn't share them with my best friend,because women are just funny like that. When all is well,it is well,then if something was to happen and we had to loose touch,her mouth would run like an open tap! I know,because I've lived it! Secrets are just that.....secrets! Post Reply
