How to avoid romancing Triss?

[Goose]

So I have already romanced Yennefer and want to end the game with her, how do I make sure I don't do the same thing with triss, more specifically, what dialogue options should I avoid?

all you gotta do is tell her farewell/goodbye or something like that on the pier at the end of the now or never quest

Thanks everybody!

I went with Triss, but then I ploughed Yennifer. Which had a certain authentic awkwardness to it like you might experience trying to plough someone on a life-sized stuff unicorn in real life. I'm very thankful I was able to cut things off with Yennifer later on. I thought I was going to wind up alone after I cheated on Triss. Have not finished the game yet.

I'm not sure about the kiss at the ball, though
but it probably doesn't affect anything

Wear a condom...

That only works 97% of the time...

The kiss at the ball makes it easier to convince her to try again (stay with you after the mages leaves) which leads to you saying you love her and sex at the lighthouse. But even that kiss won't preclude a romance with Yennefer. You just need to not tell Triss that you love her and want her to stay. Just let her leave. She'll be back later in the game anyway. It's scripted.

Interesting. What happens if you don't kiss her? What do you need to do then to bed her?

Ok. Everything else aside I need to ask the important question here. Why is kissing her a spoiler, but talking about screwing her in the next sentence isn't?
