Hi Mary,
I enjoyed your story very much. Your poor husband was just trying to right the wrongs, and just show you a little affection in public. He's the same as me. I'm a very private person. And I can just imagine how awkward it was for him to show his feelings in front of strangers. But then to have his chair break! He must have been mortified.
This was a terrific entry for the True Story Flash contest. Well done!

Hugs,
Kimbob

Hi Mary,
Sometimes a chair side romantic wins the day and the honors that
are all the more sentimentally sweet, and so personality orientated
that it is all the more meaningful and memorable. For the fault
of the chair, the theater ticket treat he scores an even bigger hit
and all the more memorable heart-applause for you!
Thanks for sharing, enjoyed this real human nature story,
Best always, Ronni
P.S, Had computer glitch on my comp, seems I missed couple of
your posts, will be getting back to soon.

This was really cute. I'm entered in this one as well and with yours have seen several that seem better than mine. Best of luck in the contest, or at least good luck on getting second place! Regards, Bill

Mary!

Oh, no! Well, that'll teach him to try to steal a kiss when he's in public, huh? Sometimes you just can't win. hahahaha But at least, you have a precious and sweet story to tell. Thanks!

    Thank you for your review. It is appreciated. Maybe next time it will be the story how I spilled hot cheese on his head.

Hahahaha, oh my goodness. I could picture that perfectly in my mind. Wife, anticipating a smooth move. Husband, dealing with a malfunctioning chair.

Cute story!

"Chair Side Romantic" is completely amusing and most romantic. I hope leaning forward can happen again for your husband without worry. You are clever to make this event into a very short story.

This is quite humorous.
You build up the possibility that your husband has changed his ways, just to reveal the surprise ending.
He's a keeper!

I'm married to one of those too. No PDA. However, he is always surprising me with gifts and interesting outings; there's no one more loyal and dedicated. I have never once doubted his love.

    Thank you for your kind comments and review. Your husband too is a keeper, there is more to love than a public display. Like covering you up at night it's when its cold.

This short short story, Chairside Romantic, proves that one should stick with his rules and do not go out on in limb in a crowd. Of course, no one falls in a vaccuum.
