So my wife knows and isn't very accepting of Christy but we are still close and working through stuff and life is good between us every other way.
Today, she is packing for a trip to Europe for work and she is asking my advice on her business attire. She has a lot of cute new clothes and I told her so. Where there were things I didn't like, I told her that as well. Then it comes down to shoes...She asks me which I prefer and I give her my honest advice to which she gives me a funny look and then says those are the ones I like, too. (score :) )
Next thing I know, she is walking around the house in those shoes to "get used to them." After a little while, she says "can you stretch these out for me?" I played dumb and asked her "how?" and she says "put on some thick socks and then walk around in them for a little while to stretch them out."
So I get it is only for her benefit but wow, she isn't too far off from Christy to not ask for help. I feel really good about this even if the shoes are a little tight right now. I just had to share - thanks for reading.
