My partner often jumps in when I am talking to her colleagues/family/friends and explains that I am an attorney in order to offset her concern they are going to think I am actually fighting with them when I think we are having a grand old time. And I am an alien after all - so I am often perplexed at how a bunch of people agree on certain things (hugging for example).
It seems many people find even a hint of conflict very distressing. I am in no way saying I am sensitive enough to others on this.
Thanks for this!
