Are We Close?

When someone really could use a helpful hint, do you give it? or not? I find myself wondering.....

*Would I want to know?

*Will it embarass him/her?

*Will it impact our relationship?

*May their ego be harmed?

*Will they wonder how long they might have gone along blind to their flaw?

*Will it show that I have not heard a word they just said?

*Might they be able to remedy the problem without drawing attention?

*When they make the discovery on their own, will they hate me for not telling them?

*Am I being too personal in pointing it out?

*Do we know each other well enough?

...It is a definite conundrum when trying to figure out when to give the flippy nostril obstruction alert....
