Keeping it between the two of you.

During difficult times in relationships we often feel the need to seek the advice of others. I understand this desire very well, but honestly you should keep it between the two of you, because there are things that the outsider cannot see that are the glue that keep you happy in your relationship. There are also things that you do not see that only an outsider can be privy to. Now seems like a two edged sword, because there seems to be no right answer to this matter.

What are the things you can pick and choose to discuss with an outsider? How intimate can you or should you get? What happens when the outsider is not willing to tell you everything about what they have seen. You cannot make a fully informed decision based on half-ass facts. This is proving to be perplexing dilemma. Okay, if your friend saw that your boyfriend or girlfriend was with another person, in a romantic embrace or on a date. Would you want them to tell you? If you were the friend, would you tell?

Many times friends don't want to get involved in these situations, because most couples stay together until they feel it has run it's course. Now why should anyone get involved? Why should you bother asking for advice when you know that no matter what you are staying with this person. Why do we seek advice when we really are going to do what we want anyway? I guess it's human nature.
