Your son sees you as his dad regardless of whether you were wearing a girl's top. He has a comfort level with his perception of his dad.<br /><br />What is more interesting is your wife's comment that if she got the same shirt you would be a matching set.<br /><br />There are parts of Pat's wardrobe that are similar in style to my wife's. A few weeks back I had on a knit top and skirt that she thought may have been hers. I had to point out the size and banding differences to convince her that my top was different than hers.<br /><br />I felt great that she complimented me on my sense of style. This happened again a few days later when I was wearing a black and white animal print faux wrap dress. She said that she could use something similar in her wardrobe. <br /><br />Comments like these make Pat feel special. I would suggest that Meg accept the same inference from your wife's comment about the catalog pick. I would go further to encourage her to match your style or you may even order the top in her size so you can be twins.<br /><br />Building a comfort level with our wives is a difficult and long drawn out process. If you have similar tastes in dress that is one additional spot of common ground.<br /><br />Patscalesmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405121500560615820noreply@blogger.com
