It takes two to tango. In other words, whenever there is a conflict in any relationship, both sides need to be taken into consideration. But it often happens that outsiders choose to back one person over the other, something which was highlighted in an episode of the web series Curb Your Enthusiasm when Larry David, the protagonist, finds himself ostracised by his friends who side with his wife, Cheryl, when they are going through a divorce. Such a reaction can end up being a myopic reading of the situation because at the end of the day, it’s only the two people in the relationship who know the whole truth — it’s only they who can resolve their differences in an amicable manner. Other people, even if they seek to provide well-meaning help, might end up complicating the situation further.
