Left Hand Column

Everyone of us has a Left Hand Column (LHC) which is what we truly wanted to say but not what we finally uttered. We are concerned how our conversation partners would react if we were to tell them what is in our LHC. We are worried that our converstation partners would decide that this is one friend that they could do without. We are unsure whether we have the confidence and guts to say what is in our LHC. What will happen in the end is that we'll try to sweeten our message, hint at it or beat round the bush and praying that our conversation partners would catch on it on their own.
