Well thanks, guys! The smile was rather forced, and accompanied by a nervous little wave of the hand. But HE seemed very relaxed, and gave a more real smile and nod back. The wife looked like she was very used to such encounters- looked pleasant, and was half-smiling, but not especially interested. They looked like they were a solid pair.
I actually hadn't brought up all the stuff about him and his wife before this. It had come up in my mind fleetingly, but I had always quickly pushed it away, So the encounter was actually a help in getting me to explore all the feelings- isn't it strange- the main one for us all seems to be comparing ourselves to the wife! In my case, they were obviously a close couple, but that didn't stop me from saying, "you should be with me- not her!" Embarrassing, but also a relief.. and I'm married!
