I have a secret. I didn't intend for it to be a secret; I just can't tell anybody. The truth is... something really grand has happened to me, but I am afraid I know how people will react if I tell them. I can hear the concerned "Oh, Meredith"'s already. Then I will have to say, "No, no, it's okay. There's nothing to worry about," which just makes me sound defensive and delusional. And then comes the skeptical "Well, okay, if you say so," which will, of course, make me question whether I really am delusional. So, rather than being elated, I will become paranoid.
I think I'll just keep it to myself and enjoy it as long as I can, thank you.
It's been 6 months quell the curiousity already ;)

..."Oh, Meredith"
Now who's curious...
