What He Says to Her

Do you keep bringing it up?

What He Says to Her

You've watched your friend's boyfriend talk to her the way you wouldn't talk to anyone. Nothing you could take to anybody. She knows you've seen it. Last month she asked you, in the nicest way, to stop bringing it up, because she's staying and she'd like to keep you.

Do you keep bringing it up?

Then ask

  • Which do you want more: her out of it, or her still speaking to you?
  • If she marries him, do you go?
  • Has anyone ever told you something true about a person you were with? What did you do with it?

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
