Confiding?

Yes. Think about it, if you tell a close friend all your secrets, and your friendship goes to shit, guess who knows a ton of shit about you and doesn't like you very much?

Don't do it; if you're scared of having it get out, don't tell anyone. To the grave bruh.

Many, many people have big mouths and can't be trusted with any information. Unfortunately, your family sounds alot like my family.

My mom and sister would ALWAYS tell each other any secrets I told either one. And my dad would always taunt me with any secrets or embarassing things I told him. My Dad would also tell my brother.

It made growing up very lonely, because I had no one I could trust. As I grew older, I gained friends who I could trust. I also learned to not trust someone with too much too quickly.

This type of relationship dynamic in a family usually coexists with "enmeshment" and / or codependency. A bit of reading on those two topics might be worth your while.

And to answer your central question, some people are trustworthy, but you need to find them.
