Rule #1 your family and friends love you so they will side with you. When you tell your side of the story of course they will be on your side 100%. I have one friend that will not chime in with me and plays the devils advocate and I appreciate her very much. She always tells me that its not exactly how I see it and helps me to see the bigger picture. If the person you are sharing your issues with isnt there to witness what actually happened you better believe lots were left out. We dont mean to fabricate stories and blow them up but we do! Everything that you speak about is the truth but its not the entire truth. Its sort of like texting you cant hear the tone of their voice, see facial expressions etc. you can only assume how they are feeling. If you and the person you are talking about arent present to discuss issues with the individual you decide to speak to it will never be fair. You will make that person you are discussing appear to be the worst partner in the world. There is nothing wrong with confiding but you must make sure the person you are speaking to can get the entire story out of you in order for them to make a fair assessment of the situation. IJS
