what did....never mind, im sorry I don't know much to say, except if the secret is embarrasing just, remember that there is problably alot worse, stuff about the people who know your secret, than your parcticular secret. Try to be happy in that knowledge other than that Im sorry I don't know.

Well, a very important part of friendship is trust. And I can understand why you would feel hurt and perhaps you feel betrayed by the fact that one or more had let go of your secret.
I'm not sure of the statues of the secret, neither will I ask, but I would advice rounding up your friends--one by one or all together, whichever you feel necessary-- and sit them down explain to them how this has made you feel. Explain your hurt and embarassment that the secret was spread. Your friends should understand, and whatever the secret is, just keep in mind that in school drastic events and things always have a way of becomming old news very quickly. Sometimes, not as quickly as we like, but you can have a take on one of two aspects: Dread it or take it in stride/laugh it off.
If it's something of a far more personal matter, I understand how the later suggestion might not be so easy. but just try to keep in mind about news becomming old in the social verbal cycle.

I've learned over the years that you can trust a few friends to keep a secret, but the more people you tell the more likely it is to slip out. And if part of the story slips out, then the other friends will hear and think that the whole story is out and wind up spilling the whole can of beans.
My advice would be that if you want to keep something a secret amongst a group of teenagers, don't tell more than two or three at the max.
Of course, I might just be cynical... ninja

Well, I can't give great advice unless I know details, but if you'r not gonna tell I'm not gonna ask. Though, if you want good general advice the previous works well.

I wouldn't let the secret get to me. Yeah i would be mad and a little embarassed but it would be out and I would need to get on with my life and I would not hang on it. I would just know that if I ever needed to get anything off my chest I would tell those friends unless they told me one of theirs then i would know I could use it against them. i know it's wrong, but that's me.
