The Wink

Well here is an odd little thing that happened that is indicative of the alter ego of the person I married. Last night we were at a restaurant with our kids and my husbands dad. The waitress was probably mid twenties and pretty. I was sitting across from him and when she finished taking his order he smiled upwards at her, connected eyes...then winked at her. Now this is seemingly a small affectation and unworthy to note but that is an incorrect conclusion.  Why? For one he was face to face with me when he flirtatiously winked. And I've never seen him wink before - ever -..presumably hes usually more circumspect about it. He doesn't wink at me...nor my daughter so if it was a funny wink (not flirting) then it would have been evident at some time in the last 15+ years. Anyways my jaw dropped just a little bit and I looked at him and said "Really?!". And wow..you would of thought I accused him of grabbing her ass. He got all bent ..said he didnt mean it like that..I'm stupid..a bitch. And all I said was that one word with a disbelieving tone..not an angry one. Me thinks the lady doth protest too much! I have a worthy analogy as well. Earlier the same day we saw a couple we haven't seen for some time. The wife looked at us and said hello. Later my husband brought it up and said she had looked at him like "damn hes still good looking" and "he still looks the same". Now if he managed to infer that from a look then exactly how much more meaning can one assume is implied with a flirty smile and a wink?
