I couldn’t help it !!!
| Daryl | I am upset. Somebody told my boss I have a part-time job. |
| Smith | And he doesn’t like that ? |
| Daryl | No, he doesn’t. He thinks that I am too tired to work. |
| Smith | I am sorry. I have to admit I told him. |
| Daryl | You told him ? Why ? |
| Smith | I couldn’t help it. He asked me point-blank. |
| Explanation : |
| If you can’t help the way you feel or behave, you cannot control it or stop it from happening. You can also say that “you can’t help yourself.” |
| If you say something point-blank, you say it very directly or rudely, without explaining or apologizing. |
