Chapters 2-3

In this chapter, Winston and Julia meet up in the private place. Julia does even more stuff to make her seem like a spy, but Winston doesn't see her like that anymore. When Winston asks what her name is, she tells him and then also adds how she already knows his. That is first off creepy and second off a big sign that he doesn't think anything about. Why does she know his name? Possibly because she is following him and taking tabs on him. She also knows how there is no microphone hidden anywhere, so she's obviously been there before. She also says how she has a "connection" so she can get stuff from the black market. Why does she have connections, but Winston doesn't? Winston is older so he should be able to have some sort of connections by now, but he didn't even know about them. She tells Winston how she has done this many times before and always with party members. Why does he trust her? If she has done it before with party members, then she clearly is trying to get other people in trouble. Instead, he just thinks she is a rebellion which he likes. They make love, but I do not believe they are in love. Winston says what they are doing is just an act of rebellion. Julia tells him how they can go to any hide-out twice and will be safe, but a months time is needed in between. When Winston brings up his wife, Julia says she already knows. Isn't that a huge red flag? How would Julia know anything about Winston and his wife? Maybe because she is keeping tabs on him and has been following his life to try and catch him. They meet up a few times, but only for short moments.
