That is a good summation Oppostate:
adultery (putting other mates opionions ahead of your own, almost idolizing, right?)
3 throng cord: What gives WT the right to be in the middle? and they ARE, aren't they...
Perhaps asking a question, or making a statement that sounds as if you are talking to yourself, not directed at the significant other..... "I can't believe what is happening in Australia".... and not finishing the sentence for them... Or, "I wonder what would happen if the Royal Commission was in Britain? or Canada? or....." "I guess in these court hearings the Judge is really trying to help the children, and make it better for all victims of child abuse" and don't answer the question.... "Oh, never mind.... " "Well, the whole world is talking about it, I am sure it will be in the news soon"
Something that would make their brains ask: "What are they talking about?" and do a search for it themselves....
If your mate is a 'searcher', and likes to go through your computer history, leave the searches for "Royal Commission Australia" in the history? ;-)
