Weeeel…….

On the one hand, if something is said in confidence, then it should remain so.

On the other hand, if the 1st party’s name came up in conversation with 3rd parties, then possibly the 2nd party could elicit support without giving details.

But to put it up on a Notice Board? No Way!

Any of you good people have any views on the following:-

A group of folk belong to the same sports club... one person in particular, gets on really really well with maybe three of the others there. He has a problem, which he shares, in confidence, with the three he most trusts.

One of those people reckons he needs to have some extra help... so posts the problem on the wall of the sportsclub bar, asking all his friends to rally around.

Would this be acceptable behaviour?

Would you breech that confidence?

Or am I alone in believing that this is a massive breech in trust?

Love

Daff, who is off to ponder this for a while... I might be the only one who finds the behaviour of the so-called friend unacceptable... I am very very cross about it at the moment.

Love

Daff xxxx
