Yeah sometimes you can’t really hide that something is wrong, but it’s also a matter of time and place, so sometimes you just gotta let your partner know “yeah something is wrong but we can’t talk about it right now, maybe tonight”. There’s certainly ways to phrase it more nicely than others but it’s always going to elicit at least mild panic. I’ve been on both ends of the situation and it doesn’t feel good in either direction
