sasuke12: My American neighbors from Florida were devout Christians. They were a young couple in late 20s.
I was 8 back then.
One day when the husband left for work on Saturday morning, I was in the front yard of the house watering the plants.
A few minutes after the husband left, another tattooed man came over and knocked on their door. The Christian wife opened the door and quickly pulled him in.
A week later, another one of our neighbor was having a barbeque in his backyard. We all were sitting in a circle(24 of us) and I kept looking at the Christian wife. Finally her husband asked me in a joking tone,
"You are not interested in Cathy are you?"
Like an innocent kid I just asked who was the tattooed man was that came into the house after the husband left.
The wife became red-faced.
The husband asked her "what is Ken talking about?" Everyone in the circle was quiet and started suspecting the wife of being a cheating slut.
Arguments began and the couple left the barbeque area to do some talking.
A few weeks later, they got divorced, and both moved out and went to separate places.
I am sure, the "christian" wife till this day curses me for revealing her secrets although innocently.
Sitting in a circle, talking? that reminds me so much of a "Birthday Party" I went to and a lot of the cool kids were involved. Eventually over time, someone had to take a "potty break" and the moment they left "the circle", everyone started talking about them -and viciously.
I was afraid to get up and pee, because I didn't know what they'd say about me.
