UK non-profit The Oddfellows conducted their own survey and found the same with people aged 60 and over. 45% of the respondents in a 2,000-people survey claimed that honesty is the most important trait among friends. Trust, loyalty, and dependability followed after.
Although we agree that being honest with people is paramount, we still keep secrets. They’re not all in bad faith, of course; sometimes, we might do it to safeguard their peace of mind. But we like secrets in general, and we like reading about others’ secrets even more. That’s why when one netizen asked, “What secret are you currently hiding from someone that you’re willing to share on Reddit?”, over 16,000 people rushed in to read what folks had to say.

r/Asphoric tells us they had a secret of their own they happened to be hiding, which is why they wanted to know about other Redditors’ secrets. The Redditor didn’t anticipate how many people would share their dark secrets about feeling lonely and dejected.
“I asked the question knowing that people may say some dark/NSFW stuff, but to see the outpouring from everyone was really moving,” they said. “I read a lot of comments that touched on a lot of difficult subjects. I felt both sad but also proud of everyone for having the courage to share what they did.”

The Redditor also agreed to share the secret that prompted the whole thread. “I had my girlfriend text me asking me to come over (even though I could not) so I could escape a miserable vacation with my family,” the netizen shares. “I have not told my parents, and I don’t intend to.”
