I need advice. I have been given the most terrible secret in the world, and the person I confide in most, whose opinion I would normally seek in this circumstance, is the one who I must keep the secret from.

I am very good at keeping secrets, but I am not nearly as good at bearing things alone as I used to be. Without knowing who I can trust not to tell this person, it's left me in a predicament.

Which means, I suppose, I am asking for help.

For now I am doing the best I can. I'm not sure I'll ever feel right about this, but I have someone to keep safe.

There's nothing to feeling right about it.

Are you doing what's right?

[iyashinokaze]

Right and wrong in this situation aren't nearly as clear as to be able to answer that.

forgot to mention he's not anon lmf

[cursedblood]

Isn't it?

You can't share the secret with the one you want to. Therefore, keeping it is your only option.

she is anon forever

[iyashinokaze]

It isn't that simple. It means I'm lying to her.

fair enough c:

And? Sometimes that's the way it is.

There are those who spread the 'truth' in the name of it, not caring whom they hurt in the process. Would you consider them better than those who know when to stay silent?

[iyashinokaze]

Of course not!

I can't help that it feels wrong. I want to do better for her.

[He thinks he knows what this is about, so he can't in good conscience suggest they get the Shinki to the point where they can discuss it. So, instead;]

Then be honest with her in other ways, if you can. It won't erase the secret, but it will build trust.

Eventually, if you do the same with others, you may find someone with whom you can discuss this matter. Or the strength to carry this on your own.
