Having been "best friends" with women many times in my life (pre-trp) for so long has caused a lot of girls to trust me with a lot of "secrets". I can't count the number of times one of them has said to me "listen, I have to tell you something, but you can't tell anyone else!" or something along those lines. It seems to be socially ingrained in girls to need to tell someone every little piece of gossip, every little secret, and every bit of information anyone entrusts them with. It's like an itch that they need to scratch, as keeping information to themselves seems to be impossible.

Why do females behave like this?
