I don’t mean loose acquaintances and other people, if not complete strangers, that you don’t owe that much of yourself interpersonally to. I mean within the circle of people you regard as at-least a C-grade friend (perhaps peripheral but definitely more than just an acquaintance). Are you a jaded cynic or do you just take them as they are and not give a second thought as-to what they might really think and say about you behind closed doors (e.g., out of envy; misunderstandings, rumours, aura)?

It depends on what type of personality the friend has tbh.

Like if they're a gossip for example, then I wouldn't trust them with a secret.

Ugh. If there’s one type of person in this life I hate with a burning passion, it’s a pathological gossip. People like that ruin lives and take people’s dignity out of their hands and crush them on loudspeaker.

That's why you have to be careful what you tell a gossip.

It’s not even always about what you tell them. It’s about what they overhear (either from you or someone-else). We can’t always control what people hear about us, including the wrong hands (a notorious gossips).

That's true tbf.

I don't really care if people talk about me when I'm not there - it's none of my business what other people think, etc.

I'm not an overly open person, so I'm not particularly likely to share anything with anyone I don't want spreading.

Not that there's much to say, I don't strangle hookers or anything.

Definitely depends on the person/situation, but not that many people are trustworthy in general tbf

people are who they are. It's up to you to use your own judgement
