I've got some pretty intense bruising on my hands and arms from my weimaraner puppy. I bruise easily and I play with him pretty physically since he's so large & energetic. No big deal. I'm used to a period of bruising after getting a new big dog. haha
Anyway, I'm a pretty short girl. Fluffy, but built small. My husband is over 6 feet tall, large, broad, muscular, nearly 300 pounds. He's also, due to his SAD, very quiet in public.
For the past day or two, I've been getting all of these weird looks. Today, this man (about 20 years older than me) was asking me, "So how've you been? How's your husband? What's his name again?" Then he says, "Well, you know, if you ever need to talk, you can call me. You can call me for whatever. Anything you want." and tries to give me his cellphone number. At first I thought he was hitting on me! lol
Later today, we were at the store and ran into a guy I went to high school with. He chatted for a minute, then he shakes my hubby's hand, much too firm and held onto it. He looks him in the eye and says, "You better be taking good care of our girl. A lot of people love her." I walked off thinking, "what the ?!?!?"
I put two & two together later - I think people think my husband is putting all of these big bruises on me! People always seem to think he's mean, when he's actually a teddy bear.
I feel like getting a t-shirt that says, "The bruises? My dog did it."
