Yes some things are better left Unsaid, depending on the circumstances. If you suspect child abuse, that should be reported immediately, if someone threatens your life, that should be reported immediately. If your friend who is in their mid 30's and likes 21 year olds, that should be left Unsaid, that is their business.

True. There are some things that really are better if left unsaid. If I gave one of the many examples I'm thinking of, they wouldn't be unsaid, so I won't. But the statement is true.

When your wife asks if her dress or pants make her look fat, you always answer "you look great honey". When you look at your wife and she looks like hell, you never tell her so. When your wife has horrible breath, you ignore it. If you want sex, you keep your mouth shut.
TRUE.
