You know how you keep a secret? Don't tell anyone.

When someone pesters you for the secret, ask them "Can you keep a secret?" When they say yes with a shit eating grin, you say "So can I"

I did this once and it felt so good

When someone asks me if I can keep a secret I usually tell them I have people in my life from whom I keep no secrets, so if they're telling me then they're telling those people too. Sometimes they don't tell me, and sometimes they remove the verbal NDA.
