The bond between a husband and wife is unique, beautiful and delicate. There are disagreements, but there is also love. In this story, a lady wished to celebrate her birthday with her husband. But read the story to find out what happened, and do you think the wife is being overly dramatic?

My husband took me out to a birthday dinner (my birthday). While we were waiting on the food, I saw an old co-worker and told my husband I wanted to go speak to them for a moment. While talking, I kept looking back towards our table to see if our food was out and to check on my husband. No food that I could tell (I’m super nearsighted), and he seemed to be reading something on his phone.
I wrapped up the convo (May have been 10-15 mins) only to come back to him finishing his food. I asked if he was done already, why didn’t he let me know the food was out etc and he started saying he had small portions, didn’t think it was a big deal, didn’t want to interrupt my conversation etc. I asked why he didn’t motion towards me or something, he said he didn’t think it would be a big deal for him to just eat.
Now I understand what some may think about me walking over to speak to the former co-worker, it was a quick 10-15 mins conversation and moving on. I even asked him if he minded if I went over and spoke to them for a few minutes because I had not seen them in quite some time. (They are older). This wasn’t a super fancy sit down restaurant either, our budget was tight so we went to Cracker Barrel. I feel like he could have at least let me know the food was out t something.
A little more context, we’ve been married 16 years, two teens etc. nothing like this has ever happened before.
