You have the right to remain silent.

She was suggested as a model, and chose social work instead (more interesting).

And..she could always leave me if she wanted to. We've only been together for 47 years, after all........

When she is upset with me, she speaks only in German to me.

Of course, we have never spoken anything OTHER than German with each other, so I don't always know......
