This is a question about my friend and I, but I didn't know where to ask and always get awesome replies from here, which I really appreciate. So here goes!

My friend and I are very close, we've been friends for quite a few years, and are pretty much like sisters (her, older by a few years, being an older sister). We talk for a few hours every day, and see each other once or twice a week.

While we are very close, we both have our own seperate lives and friends. This has never been a problem.

The difference is my friend tells me... everything ha ha. pretty much. Just normally talks about everything she does during the day, and what she's done with her friends. Who's she's talked on the phone with, what they talked about. We're close and we talk about everything.

I don't tell her everything.

She's recently come to realize that. She even mentioned on the phone how there are 2 of me, or maybe 3, and she only gets the 1st one.

I simply feel strange talking about the areas of my life that have nothing to do with her, unless something is on my mind, then I talk to her (she's my best friend, I always go to her.)

I was wondering,

How would you feel if you were her?

I would appreciate answers from many people, because no everyone is the same.

thanks in advance!

sorry to hear that you dont trust your best friend,i had a best friend and we shared everything from clothes to secrets nothing held back and that took 16 yrs to build,our friendship doesnt exist now due to her fiance but after 2 yrs i still miss her,i now have 2 mates 1 i can trust only with normal gossip and the other with intimate things but neither come close to my x bestfriend,if you cant talk to your friend its not a real friendship she obviously trust you and must be hurting deeply to know you dont feel the same way and trust her enough.love comes in many forms and i loved my x friend.
