The Not-so Typical Approach

Sometimes the best way to face a problem or situation is not head on. I recently have found myself in a predicament that actually has nothing to do with me and does not affect me, yet I let it get to me. The gist of it is someone is either spreading rumors about someone I know (a good acquaintance), or they are spreading this persons deepest secret. With that having been said, I'd like to help this person but considering me (and the rest of my campus) is not supposed to know, I've been refraining from doing any such thing. But it's hard; I have been in a situation like my acquaintance (may) be in and sometimes you want help and support but have no way of asking for it in fear that you'd let the secret go.
The Moral of the story?
If you find yourself where I am, just let the situation be. Chances are it isn't any of your business, but in due time that person could be approaching you for help. Just be there for them when and if they come to you. We all need friends and allies especially during hard times, so just be understanding and loving. If they don't approach you? Then maybe it was truly nothing, and this person really does not need any help. We all deal with personal matters in our own ways, and that's partially the beauty of it.
