I found myself in a familiar situation. Expressing my opinion and then guessing.
Yes, my wife was picking out her outfit for work and was having trouble with the final piece. Her jacket. Did I like the sweater type jacket? Or the leather type jacket?
She looked great in either. How about that one you are wearing at this moment? That one looks good.
My opinion however did not tip the scales. She responded with a counter argument. This one (the first one) goes better with the shoes.
Hum, good point. They both look good, so how about the one that you are wearing right now?
I did not want to take the easy way out. I did not want to suggest the classic reverse. I resisted the urge to say, “Well, what do you think?” That would be dodging the question. She wanted my honest opinion. My feedback.
For the moment however, Charlene had moved on from the jacket issue and was picking out earrings. As she stood there, trying out options, I suddenly knew the answer. The truth was that anything would look great on her. My dear wife was perfect. Just right for me. The best fit of all.
You should bury the hatchet, and come back to Kandiyohi County 😄.
Then come to Three Sisters Furnishings and get her started on Pandora Jewelry!
We ship!
Roger,
I love it! A little road trip, plus a little jewelry, always makes for a quick exit from the Dog House :0)
