The elephant in the room

People would rather go through the trouble of working around it than acknowledging it and trying to find a solution to remove the elephant from the room. Sometimes it is not possible to make the elephant go away but he might shrink and make things more comfortable for all. Sometimes when I meet other people they tend to be a little tense in my presence, and sometimes when I'm opened people tend to tell me all sorts of things and that can be overwhelming. When you caught people gossiping about you it’s like there is an elephant in the room because they start to act differently and there’s little tension in between.
