When someone talks about telling a friend or allowing a spouse to tell a friend about "this thing we do" (copyright Veronicamoonlit), we usually jump in with the warning about not being surprised if the word gets around.

I have been trying to pay attention lately (really!) to any stories about whether this is happening a lot or not. But outside of a few ex-wives outing one of us, I haven't seen much in particular about friends.
