As told to me by my wife...

[W1ll_B 102]

I would like to contribute to this thread a little.

I have a bit of a conflicting situation regarding a particular matter.
I could never imagine asking my wife to share information about her friends with me because I've told her that I have an interest in "these types of things" and she is quite possessive, so I believe it would likely cause problems if I started inquiring.

At the same time, my wife doesn't seem to fully understand my interest and may bring up such events in conversation, without realizing that they would be of significance to me. She doesn't do so intentionally to benefit me or to tease me, but simply shares these things as she would with any other daily occurrences. She doesn't provide any stories or details, but just briefly mentions something like "Friend X went to the bushes to pee."

I can give a couple of examples if anyone would like to read:

There was a three-day weekend festival in a nearby city that my wife and her friends attended. They purchased tickets and traveled there by train every morning, returning home at night, and doing the same the next day.

On the second day, Friend X came to pick up my wife and as they were leaving, my wife mentioned without any special reason:

"Friend X had to go to the bushes to pee yesterday because she had an urgent need. By the roots of a spruce. Or at least it looked like a spruce.."

Friend X, who was in the next room, asked, "What had to go?"
My wife replied, "To go to the bushes to pee."
Friend X chuckled and said, "Yeah, I had to. It was funny. Some weirdos came there." (I'm not sure what the last part meant).

From my observations of Friend X, I don't believe she is the type of person who would casually pee in the bushes for fun, but rather would wait for a bathroom if possible, as it is a matter of good manners. However, if the situation requires it, she wouldn't hesitate to do so in the bushes without feeling embarrassed.

I'm not sure why my wife specifically mentioned this incident to me, but I think it just came to her mind at the moment and she thought it was amusing and wanted to share it.

On another occasion, my wife and the same Friend X went to a nearby city by train.
They were supposed to get off the train at a station near our home, but due to some changes, they had to take a different train that would stop at a station a few kilometers away.
My wife called me and said that they would be arriving at a different station and that I could meet her halfway and we could come home together. She promised to call again when they were closer.

Later, my wife called me and said, "We're here near Supermarket Y. Friend X is going to the bushes to pee and then we'll start heading home, so you can start walking this way already."

This information was completely irrelevant to the actual matter at hand, but for some reason my wife wanted to mention it to me.

Of course, I appreciate these mentions, and since I know Friend X, I can imagine the events in my mind.

Later, I tried to look on Google Maps to see if I could possibly locate the event location because I knew its approximate location within a few hundred meters, but it was quite impossible to determine the exact location.
