That's a very silly question: some people are trustworthy and some aren't. It sounds as if you've been choosing the wrong people to tell secrets to, but that's normal until you mature enough to be able to tell the difference and even then it's easy to make mistakes
It takes a LOT for me to be able to trust you, I don't automatically trust just anyone who I don't know. And then then, if my trust is broken by you, you're not getting it back.
Some people are. You just have to find them. I've been keeping secrets for over 15years without telling a soul
There are levels of trust for different people in your life. My general rule of thumb, never expose anything to where if it was told to the general public, you wouldn't want it heard.
Of course intimacy exposes one to a greater level of trust but if information is shared equally then both parties have the same or similar levels of exposure and thus share the risk.
trust is not given, it's earned. and earning it can take forever
i'll give you a real life example.THIS IS REAL it happened to someone i know
2 women.. knows each other's secret.. share the same roof ( theyre not related by blood) lived together for 12 YEARS.
one day.. the other women (farfara) told the other women's secrets (margeratia) to her enemys TOLD THEM EVERYTHING.
She exposed everything about margeratia and margeratia really trusted farfara.
I have many many many other REAL stories on trust that end up HORRIBLY to a limit were one of the stories was going to lead to court.
I personally, don't even give people a chance to earn my trust (which is bad) because i know if someday something happened between me and my trust-holder.. they'll probably expose everything about me.
TRUST is a very complicated thing.. so i never look it's way.
