But I have noticed a fearful glance, a somewhat challenging stare, individuals grasping their partner's hand or grasping it tighter, and other body gestures that seem to scream "get away from me", "what do you have to say about it", "see, he's happy who he's with", "here comes the angry sistah", "she's judging me or us"...etc.
