I)

Girl: "Can I speak to you about something?"

Boy: "Sure."

Girl proceeds to relate deep secrets and asks that they remain in confidence.

Boy: "Wow ok. I'm not sure it's any of my business, but here's what I think..."

Boy proceeds to relate his experience and understanding of similar situations in which he has personal and direct experience.

II)

Other boy: "So you've talked to Girl about deep dark secret eh?"

Boy: "Yeah, but it's none of my business."

Other boy: "I agree with that."

Boy: "What?"

Other boy: "That it's none of your business."

Boy: "Sure, yet both you and her insist on involving me. Doesn't it seem contradictory to plead to speak to me about it and then maintain that it's none of my business?"
