    At dinner my husband and i often sit silently on our phones texting each other to play ‘What’s that relationship?’

      I’m reminded of a time I was on a business trip to visit a remote office, and I had dinner with a woman that I worked with. Both of us are married, to other people, who were not present. We must have given off the right vibes, though, because the server asked if we wanted separate checks at the end.

      Or maybe they thought the date had gone REALLY badly.
