" Some truth experience too messy to say out aloud . "
We’re all guilty of keeping secrets now and then, even from those closest to us. Reddit userSuper_Diddy69recently asked,“What’s something you’ll NEVER tell your best friend?“Here’s what people are keeping their mouths shut about, from heartwarming to heartbreaking truths:
1.“I’m devastated that your friendship meant more to me than my friendship meant to you.”
2.“I romantically love you, but I won’t ruin our friendship. She’s been my best friend since we were kids, and every time we catch up after not talking for some time, it feels like I’m a kid with a crush all over again.”

3.“I know we’re both adults and busy, but we’ve been friends for 12 years. I shouldn’t have to hit you up every time to hang out.”
4.“I’m so sick of her always complaining about men and how she just wants to be alone, yet she just goes from one relationship to another and never stays alone! Every single guy she chooses is a real POS! I am slowly pulling away from being her friend because I can’t stand this anymore.”

5.“Sometimes I pretend to agree to keep the peace, even when I think they’re wrong. Some truths just aren’t worth the drama.”
6.“How much I miss him. He passed away far too young.”

7.“I stuffed the ballot with multiple votes so that she would win homecoming princess. She still looks back fondly on that memory, so I don’t want to spoil it for her. I always feel guilty whenever it comes up, which is not often TBH.”
8.“My best friend’s husband got drunk and told me he cheated on her. I planned to tell her, but then her husband died very suddenly. I decided it was best not to tell her as I didn’t want to ruin her memory of him.”

9.“The universe is not against you. You make terrible choices, and the results are the consequences of your actions.”
10.“I secretly hated the person they were dating, but stayed quiet to protect our friendship. Some truths feel too messy to say out loud.”

11.“Many years ago, my friend had a hamster. One day, when I was at his house, he went to the toilet and I took his little hamster outside. It escaped, and I ran and tried to catch it for around a minute. I caught it before it went down a hole in the ground. I got the hamster back into its cage inside, right before my friend exited the bathroom. He will never find out how he almost lost his hamster that day.”
12.“I don’t care about seeing, hearing about, or holding his baby. I’m sorry, but I just do not care about kids, even if it’s yours.”

13.“How much it hurts after I had their back through a difficult period. They appear not to care about our friendship now that they have a new partner, and life is different.”
14.“How much I truly loved and adored him when he was still alive.”

15.“His ex-girlfriend tried to hook up with me multiple times. They had two kids together.”
16.“I think their fiancé is an immature brat that ruined their life, but hey, at least they are ‘happy.'”

17.“I’m starting to get tired of her getting in relationships, centering her life around those men, and becoming a bad friend, only to come running back when the men she chooses do her wrong.”
18.“I don’t know, I tell my sister everything. I suppose if there is a spider in the room, I won’t say anything. She is deathly afraid of them.”
