Husbanded so hard today the very nice gay guy next to us at the bar for happy hour tried to get my number.

I was extremely flattered & my wife & SIL's were dieing laughing. Both my SIL's bought me clothes & my wife let me splurge on a nice outfit.

Inside all I could think was "damn I still got it"
