The meaning of discretion. When one engages in a relationship with someone who has a girlfriend already.... on a small campus where their coupledom is common knowledge... both parties agree to a certain level of discretion. But, I have come to realize that some people may understand the term "discretion" in theory, but not in practice.

For example: When walking across campus, and spotting the chica who rode you like a new showpony while your clueless girlfriend was asleep... do not stare her down like you just saw her picture on America's Most Wanted. That is not discreet.

DO not snap at her friend when friend approaches you. Assume the chica understands discretion and revealed your identity to no one. This just makes you look bipolar - or signals something is amuck.

Do not linger in the parking lot staring up at a window to her room. It makes you look odd, gives you a crick in your neck, and sends off that serial killer vibe.

discretion.... tell no one, act no different, basically pretend it never happened. Now, is that clear?
