Contexto
I could say to Sarah, “The other day I was talking to Amber and I had this great experience talking with her. It was fascinating. She helped me understand some of the things I am dealing with. She is such a great conversationalist.” If I say that to Sarah and then Sarah later says that to Amber, what do you think will happen? Amber responds, “Wow, that is pretty cool he feels that way.” Something so negative like talking behind someone is back could be so positive when we do it in a constructive way.
