Some background: Me - Late 50s male. Happily married.

My doctor: Ophthamologist. Attractive woman. 30-ish. Happily married.

Side note: I accidentally ran into her and her husband at a party about a month ago. Nice lady.

So, I went into her office yesterday morning for an appointment. When she came in the room, I noticed that her zipper was “XYZ” and her fly was totally open. Gaping open and pretty distracting. So, I try to make friendly conversation, eyes up.

As part of her job, she’s straddling the chair and equipment as she’s examining my eyes. Awkward. Continue eyes up!

I thought about mentioning “XYZ” to her, but didn’t want to come across as a creepy old guy that’s hitting on her. I didn’t want to embarrass her. So, in the end, I didn’t say anything, and she left.

So, is it better to say something, or not? I think she probably figured it out next time she went to the bathroom.

    If it can be corrected in 30 seconds or less, mention it so they can address it, if it’s something that can’t be fixed on the spot or quickly, then no.
