confide = place trust (in someone) by talking about private things
I was privy to all the fors and againsts; I was the friend to whom he confided his hopes and plans; and though I did not know his wife previously, her inferior situation in society, indeed, rendered that impossible, yet I knew her all her life afterwards, or at least till within the last two years of her life, and can answer any question you may wish to put.†

Definitions:

(1) (confide)
to place trust (in someone) by talking about private things or telling secrets
(2) (meaning too rare to warrant focus)
Much more rarely, confide can mean to give trust to someone while giving them something important--such as a responsibility or a valuable item. For example, "I confided the job to her care."
