Interesting evening

I think male fail is upon me.

My wife and I went out to a wine place at the local indoor mall (Cooper's Hawk) and we had a wine tasting which usually makes us unable to drive home.  In anticipation we made dinner reservations too.  Well then the fun begins.  The waiter referred to use a dozen times as "ladies" and even when I was alone he "missed" me.  My wife's reaction was "is he blind?"  I just laughed and smiled.

Then we walked around the mall - each store we went into "Can I help you ladies?" "Excuse me ladies..." I was not Sir'd one time all night.  I wonder how my wife felt about that.

P.S.  I was wearing jeans (Okay women's jeans, but who looks that closely), boat shoes, a green fleece hoodie that was covered by a light jacket that's too big for me.  The only thing I can come up with is that Male Fail is closer than I thought.

Oh one more thing:   ;D

A lifetime of depression and repressed emotions is nothing more than existence. I for one want to live now not just exist!

Great?  Not sure.  I think closer terms are reassured, strange, a little excited, a little leery, and concerned for my wife who was sitting across from me.  I wish I was a mind reader.

Thanks for the replies.

Yeh concerned for your wife, that's a tough one isn't it. More than half the moments that make me happy about myself I do not share as much as I'd like to just because of that. It's tough for certain.

Wow, I think I kinda understand how you feel.  I'd be pretty excited in the first moment if that happened to me but yeah for my wife as well that would probably cause her to break down (at least at this point). Always hard when you want to be excited about something but realize it's crushing her at the same time.
