I've never really been the type to show emotion, whether these emotions are positive or negative. In that regard, I prefer to remain even keeled. As I write this, I am definitely not happy. In fact, I'll come out and say it in as direct a manner as I can muster.
I am livid.
I learned just recently that a now former friend (a label that she just recently earned) had divulged some personal information about me to at least one other person. This sort of thing bothers me for a few reasons, one of which is that I told this former friend various things about me, personal stuff at that, that I would have never imagined she would have shared with anyone else. I suppose that concept of keeping things between us was something that she apparently could not adhere to. Truth be told, I never disclosed to anyone anything personal that she had told me. I can keep personal information private. Apparently, she cannot.
I am not upset with the person or people she disclosed my information to. They are not at fault. These people were merely listening to her and as far as I am aware, these people never asked for the information that she disclosed to them.
To me, this disclosure of my personal information is an extreme violation of my trust. I respected this woman. I confided in her. I didn't realize that my information, or anything I had told her in confidence, was at any point subject to disclosure.
Aside from writing this entry about it, I have no other recourse. I can't do much about it, except maybe vent and let off steam in written form. I suppose I shouldn't be so trusting. I don't know who I can trust and I trusted this woman. I did. From the looks of things maybe I shouldn't have been so trusting?
