Couples, what secret language do you use to tell each other details that the company you're in doesn't understand or notice? (lemm.ee)

Married 30 years. Eyebrow position and, "eh?"

"Eh."

And we are pretty much on the same page.

    Not 30 years, but usually just looking at each other says enough, with maybe a head motion if it's time to go. Facial expressions say a lot on their own, and if you know someone well enough, even subtle differences can say a lot.

    Yup, we're only at 12, but a look is enough, we're usually thinking the same thing.

    But the other additional one, three squeezes, hands, or whatever can be touched without being obvious, is I love you. Seems sweet, but most often used when one of us is getting pissed off (at something/someone else, not each other).
