Is a secret a secret, once you have told it to somone?



Answers:
According to the dictionary, a secret is something known only by a few people and is intentionally kept from others. So it is possible to have a secret known to more than one person.
no more.
A secret is something you tell one person at a time!
No, not a secret.
No.
only if the other person that you told keeps it to them selves.
that's a secret question and has a secret answer to it
it is still a secret. you are just a lousy friend.
NO!
once you've told it to someone then its not a secret anymore..unless that someone was suppose to know
No it not a secret once u have told it to somebody
there is no real secret in the world.
dont trust any one
if I tell you it will not be an Secert.
Yes. It's not secret if you make a public announcement. If you tell 2 people, or even a group, then it can still be a secret between the people who know.
yes it is sill a secret untill the affected parties are aware that their secret is out in the open, so they still think it is a secret.thus the secret is still safe.
No it was a secret when you only knew it your self!A secret aint a secret anymore once you have told somone!its not a secret because you have broke it you just told someone it already!No No one should know only but the person with a secret!!
A secret is a secret, Only when YOU keep it ! Quote by Mz Gohst!
can be, cos you can have several people in on the secret. if you told me a secret in person and i didnt tell anyone then it is still a secret between me and you.
If they don't tell anyone else then it is still secret from the rest of the world.
Technically no, then it's considered "a secret between two people". A true secret is something no one knows but the person with the secret.
Listen let me tell you a secret.Its OK until you are found out you blabber mouth.
as Ben Franklin used to say: "three can keep a secret, if two of them are dead".
Secrecy is relative. It is still a secret to those who have not been told.
A secret can be kept by any number of people. You can keep a secret that only you know about, or (let's just say for instance) everybody you know could be keeping the secret from you that your wife is cheating on you. As long as someone is kept out of the loop, the secret is still a secret; the number of people involved is irrelevant, as long as someone is kept in the dark or uninformed.
No. When you say it is a secret. It must be kept secret, unless both parties would agree not to keep the secret anymore. :-)
It's a leak.
As someone - maybe Benjamin Franklin? - said: "Two can keep a secret if one of them is dead." :-)
no, it is now a gossip
to those who don't know it yet, it is!
its no longer a secret.
that's why i admit i don't have much secrets.
"In the long run, there are no secrets. in science. The universe will not cooperate in a cover-up. "
Haven't you heard about 'open secret'? If I reveal a secret secretively to someone, it will come under this category.
Not if they are a gossip!
