Should I tell my niece's secret since she told mine?

She seriously cut her boyfriends name into her leg?? More importantly at the age of 12!?!

Anyways, don’t tell. Your the one that should set the example since your her aunt. Eventually when she gets older she’ll be grateful for your deeds.

But if you want to get a little evil you can always use it against her at times… just kidding x]

but i dont cut bcuz i am sad i do bcuz its kind of fun and i like the way it looks and i dont cut very deep just enough to make a mark

well dont tell i know it must hurt you but be the better person.. and dont cut yourself.. why are you cutting yourself.. its not god those marks will be there forever..

Dear bublondee, Your niece was right to tell your mother about your cutting…even if you’re doing it for fun and because you like the look or because you know others who do it. You are still cutting and that is wrong. Anytime we do damage to our bodies it needs to be addressed. What your cousin did was wrong too…she should have not cut either or done ANYTHING at 12 with a boy. Her mother needs to know also. Some times people tell secrets because they really are looking for guidance with what they feel may be wrong. I think you both know you were doing the wrong things and were looking for acceptance from each other but both of you were smart enough to know that you were both doing inappropriate things. So never promise to keep secrets with anyone; because most secrets people tell others are just ways of looking for help. Sue…good luck

I agree with what pyrochick said, two wrongs don’t make a right. You should tell her you aren’t going to tell her secret because you know you promised you wouldn’t, and that you wished she hadn’t broken her promise to you. I know you don’t want to hear this- but it might even be a good thing she mentioned you cut yourself, even if it was a secret. You are obviously going through a lot if you cut yourself, and your mom needs to know! It’s hard, but try to talk to someone about your problem. You deserve help and to be happy. Talk to your mom, or a counselor or doctor or any adult you can trust about this. Cutting doesn’t solve your problems, try to find another way out!

even though she told ur secret it wouldnt be fair to tell her secret.. she will relieze later that what she did was wrong but 2 wrongs dont make things right.. i would keep her secret. an tell her the reason im not tellin ur secret b.c i promised u i wouldnt.. next time before u say anything remember the promise u made to someone…

thats what i would do in a situation like this.. well good luck hope this helped..

love always megan

quite frankly, i would tell because shes young and shouldnt be doing certain things with her boyfriend
