Was it implicit in the conversation?
During the long courting period, which takes up most of the story, Lois has various discordant thoughts–I mean, who would want to marry someone mean enough to pull an April Fool’s stunt like this one? More, she thinks Superman won’t give up his costume for the day, his costume being famous and Superman being in it for the glory.
i’ve started to notice, again, that the world around offers interesting and wonderful things to us all the time, when we just stop to notice.
Secrets are often confided to friends who know how to react and deal with the facts we have just told them, and they can advise us; inform us of what they think the right course of action is. And, even if against our will, we all need advice sometimes. Those friends are, at the time, worthy of our trust and that’s why we tell them our secrets, because we know they won’t fall in the wrong hands.
In fact, we trust them not to tell anyone about it. However, sometimes we feel like we don’t have to tell the confident that our secret is not to be disclosed, or we simply jump that detail. Then, the person we told our secret must make a judgement call. Was it implicit in the conversation the secrecy of the matter we discussed? Is he able to bend the conditions we set so that he can tell his/her best friend and to his/her best friend only?
