In the latest celebrity news according to US Weekly, Kim Kardashian insulted celebrity couple Khloe Kardashian and NBA Pro Tristan Thompson by implying her sister is an idiot. The snide comment was made because Khloe Kardashian did not call off her relationship with Thompson after he cheated during Kardashian’s pregnancy. Kourtney Kardashian, however, stuck by her sister’s side, saying, “It’s so quick and easy to be like, ‘leave him, leave him’. It’s so much harder to stay and have the whole public think you’re an idiot for staying.”
Tension is running high in the Kardashian family because of the celebrity couple. What are some tactful ways of telling a loved one you don’t like their S.O.?
Cupid’s Advice:
It’s not easy to tell your loved one that their significant other is a lousy person, especially when they aren’t ready to listen to you. What are some ways you can tell them how you feel without the family drama?
1. Sit them down for tea or coffee: Don’t let them know what you think about their S.O. publicly. Invite them over for a private conversation. Your loved one might not be willing to hear what you have to say about their spouse, but a private conversation in the living room will be more effective than a status post on Facebook about how much you hate the person your loved one is dating.

2. Let them know you realize they might not be ready to hear it: Don’t name call and most certainly do not yell. Let them vent about the situation if they need to their feelings off of their chest. Having a conversation about your concerns over the person your loved one is dating with a level head and in a respectful manner will get your point heard faster than a petty back-and-forth through text messages.

3. Don’t take sides when other family members are clearly opposed: Let your loved one know that you support them no matter what they decide to do. Knowing you respect their decision at the end of the day will open them up to the possibility of listening to your opinion.
