@adminosnafrank Did that work? Thank you, Frank! I love all y'all too - my Tet. I can't tag you - I forgot how neesy showed me, but I'd have to leave here to find it. And when I quote a post I end up responding inside the quote. I'm a simpleton! No need to feel like a simpleton, just yell “Frank” real loudly and he’ll hear you no matter where you are. |

I've had someone else's foot in my mouth but I'm guessing this ain't the thread for that discussion.  |

@wayoftheredpanda Good point - it very well could have been. I guess that's what I was thinking - I wanted him to tell me who she was. I hate making a mistake like that. I am socially awkward. I'm better off just staying home, reading and going to be early. hollygolightly
Don't beat yourself up about this, it was NOT your fault. He was the one that handled it poorly. If he brings her to a church event than he can at last say who she is and be prepared that someone will have that question, innocent as yours was or not innocent. Don't you dare stay home in future. You are a lovely person so please continue to be social. I am sure you are a ray of sunshine wherever you go. You always bring smiles and support to this Board. Believe me, what I would have said (and said in the past) well, after he closed his gaping mouth after my 2 standard questions, he would have left and probably not returned.

@alexandra thank you, love! I'm feeling better about it - I did learn that he and his wife have split up and yes, he is already bringing another woman around. Le sigh. I really like his soon to be ex-wife.
So I'm dying to know - what are your 2 standard questions? Do tell.
Due to my job, I couldn't quit socializing, even if I wanted to. But I kind of like being social. I like my downtime too though!

Yep, stuck my foot and half my leg in my mouth last night at the acapella competition up at the college.
At the end of the show they had a beatbox competition. I am always amazed at the sounds these humans can make.
So I looked at my daughter, and excitedly shouted, "Look, they're gonna have a beat off!"
Imagine my embarrassment when my daughter looked at me and calmly stated that she didn't think we paid enough to see that.........

When I was young and skinny and quite flexible I could almost put my foot in my mouth (double jointed), but now I just do it occasionally by blurting out something. But that hardly ever happens any more.
Getting older makes you think twice before you say something, as it's too easy to offend people without meaning to.

I am sure I have. But, on the contrary, as an 'over thinker' (as you pointed out) I am more apt to mull something over before speaking. Where I most get in trouble is when texting. It's appalling how often things can get misconstrued and picked apart. Not too long ago a friend texted an invitation. I responded, "Thanks, but that doesn't work for me." I think he got perturbed. It's odd, really...I'm either overly polite and accommodating or I'm too blunt. LOL.
I agree with Neesy and Frank. I don't think you were insensitive or clueless.

Yup. in the waiting room at an obgyn checkup for one of my many gestations (they're a blur), I asked a lady with a round belly when she was due.
That's not what she was there for.
I apologized but still felt stupid.

Probably, but not for awhile I don't think 
Th one time I did still is seared in my mind. At a staff Christmas party one of my co workers tried to introduce me to his wife. I said (too quickly) Hi Patty I have talked to you on the phone. WRONG. His girlfriend's name was Patty, his wife's name was Lori. facepalm
