“Don‘t worry. I was never Mr. Newman‘s girlfriend. In fact, he used me as a shield because he didn‘t want to go on blind dates anymore,” Anne explained, “I still believe that mutual feelings are important in a relationship to ensure a long–lasting marriage.” Joanne did not know what Anne was implying, and she thought Anne had no right to speak to her that way.
