When my wife and I arrived at our 10-year high school reunion, we almost immediately bumped into a girl I'd gone out with a few times (3, maybe 4) back in school. She was there alone. We chatted for a minute and then moved on.
At the end of the night, my wife shared something she'd learned during the evening. My old acquaintance came alone (despite a good-sized ring) because she was in a same-sex relationship and was worried how people would react.
I had mixed feelings. I was glad she found someone, but sorry she didn't feel comfortable with who she is and who she loves. That's got to be a hard way to live. I resolved that when our paths crossed next I would invite her and her partner out to dinner.
About a month later, I received an envelope from the class reunion committee. It contained a little booklet that listed whatever life updates the attendees felt like sharing. The girl had written something. She shared that she had recently married and was adjusting to life with her new husband and step-daughter.
My wife had pranked me!!! It was so out of character, I never suspected a thing. It turns out she'd carried a grudge about those few dates. When I asked her about it, she gave me a little grin, an innocent look, and said, "Oh, did I say that? I don't remember." Why are innocent looks so seldom innocent??? LOL!
Have a great weekend!!!
I hope you are plotting how to "outprank" your wife! Please give her my congratulations for pulling it off. I think I would have started smiling and given myself away if I had attempted it.

ReplyDeleteLOL OMG i want to high five your wife. that's quite funny haha.
ReplyDeleteAh, that's a sneaky little wife you have there. Kudos to her for holding on to the lie till you found out a month later. If I were her, I would let the cat outta the bag earlier for fear of awkward moments. I wonder what would happen if you really thought that your friend was with a female partner and you started asking her about it. You would have a new post to write about!
ReplyDeleteIt's so great to be back! I missed reading your blog. I can only imagine your priceless reaction, Rick! And how your wife loved it. LOL. She deserves a hug :-D
ReplyDeleteWonderful post, as always. Will look forward for more!
LOL! Your wife did a very good job pranking you. :P I hope you can think of a good way to repay her back hahahah!
ReplyDeletelol that is hilarious, but I think I would have stupidly slipped out some inappropriate comment instead of letting it go a few months hahaha!
ReplyDeletehahah oh wow you are soooo lucky that you didn't you didn't say anything to her before finding out about your wife's prank! Talk about awkward moment averted.
ReplyDeleteAhahaha that is hilarious! But I love that you were sincerely concerned about your old friend. :)
