Hi All,
Recently I was at a Mall, en-fem and I stopped to get a bite. Weather was gorgeous - sunny and warm with light breeze. So I decided to take my tray to the outside and sat down at a table on the sidewalk meant for exactly that purpose, enjoying my food and the weather.
After a while I saw another woman coming out with a tray and looking around for a vacant place table. No table was completely free. However all other partially filled tables had a man sitting at them.
The woman approached me and asked me if she could share the table with me. To me it seemed she did not want to share a table with a strange man. I said yes, of course and she sat down and started eating. After a few bites she started talking to me starting with weather but quickly getting into shopping and many other girl-talk. I tried my best to keep up with her but she definitely spoke more than me.
Now not to brag or anything but I pass reasonably well, including my voice. I don't think she noticed or suspected that I was a CD. She did not bring it up during the conversation in anyway - not even a hint.
Now my quick question is - under the circumstances, what is my obligation? Should I have pointed out that I am a CD and that she will be sharing the table with a man-in-a-dress?
- Nisha.
