This morning I was walking with one of my dog walking friends even though I no longer have a dog , we stopped at a secluded house to chat to a lady whose house it was . She has never met me before but knew the guy I was with , (I will add I was obvioulsy Teresa ) the way the conversation was going I realised she thought I was female . We talked about dogs and how I had just lost mine then happened to slip in , " MY WIFE !" She stopped talking and stared at me , my friend realised my slip up and moved the conversation on quickly . The lady didn't make too much of it as she just started to chat to me again .
I will have to be more careful but it's so easy to slip up after being married for 45 years . I know this also touches on the issue of passing , all I can add is I obvioulsy tick enough boxes to tip the balance on the female side .
I will add I had an amusing moment recently when I met an lady I hadn't seen in over thirty years , she saw the same guy and myself walking across the field and she thought his wife had changed her hair colour , we did have a good laugh about that one .
As from last Thursday it has become my Ex-wife .
