The Spying Game?
Know the saying, “Curiosity killed the cat”? Well, how far would you go to find out what your man’s up to? Take Kelli Armstrong’s quiz to see if you purr – or hiss.
|
| 1. | Your boyfriend goes to the gym, leaving his mobile behind. You… |
| | |
turn it off so the ringing doesn’t annoy you. |
| | |
casually browse through his in-box and have a quick listen to his voice mails. |
| | |
not only check all his text messages, but also study his incoming and outgoing call lists and make a note of any numbers you don’t recognise. |
|
| 2. | You come across your bloke’s credit-card bill and, as soon as he leaves the room, you… |
| | |
decide the TV guide makes for much more interesting reading material. |
| | |
scan his limit and make sure he hasn’t run up any huge debts you don’t know about. |
| | |
study it item by item, searching for restaurant/hotel names, or any place where he may have bought stuff that you know wasn’t for himself or for you. |
|
| 3. | Your lover tells you that he’s going to the pub with his old schoolmate, Simon. You… |
| | |
tell him to have a drink for you, and stay home with a video. |
| | |
can’t help but wonder if he really is out with his mate – and spend the evening trying to think up a decent reason to call Simon’s girlfriend to see where he is tonight. |
| | |
hide his mobile phone or wallet before he leaves so that you have the perfect excuse to pop into the pub later. |
|
| 4. | Your partner calls to ask you to access his e-mail account for an important message, and gives you his password. You… |
| | |
check to see if the message has arrived, then get back to what you were doing. |
| | |
scan through his e-mails, but get bored and decide you’re invading his privacy – and it’s not cool, even if it is a little thrilling. |
| | |
read all his e-mails, and become obsessed with doing so every single day, until you find something you think is suitably incriminating – at which time you confront him, distraught. |
|
| 5. | Your mans’ not home on time – so you try calling him, only to find that his mobile is switched off. You… |
| | |
leave a message to the effect of “Hi babe, just wondering where you are – give me a call when you can.” |
| | |
leave him a message, then contact his office to see what time he left – and decide he must be having trouble with public transport. |
| | |
ring his workplace, his colleagues, then the bus and rail hotlines to check if there are delays. That way, when you question him later of his whereabouts, you’ll think you know whether or not he’s lying. |
|
| 6. | You catch your guy making what seems like a sneaky phone call – as soon as you walk into the room he hangs up and says it was just a call to his mother. You… |
| | |
believe him – he’s always a bit funny after speaking to his mum. |
| | |
decide to give him the benefit of the doubt, but keep both ears open when he makes future calls, just in case. |
| | |
hit the redial button as soon as he wanders off, while thinking, “Nothing’s gonna get past me, buddy!” |
|
| 7. | It’s been two hours since you left a message with your partner’s secretary. You… |
| | |
wait one more hour until you call again. |
| | |
leave another message, saying it’s urgent. |
| | |
keep hitting the redial button, leaving demands, wanting to know where he is – then call his mobile incessantly. |
