Let me preface this by saying that my wife and I have been in a bit of a slump lately because of circumstances that are largely outside of our control, death in the family and some other stuff.

Also, 2 days ago I sent my wife a funny interview with Henry Cavill and I could tell after she watched it that she was kind of wet in the pants for Henry. That's fine, we all have our little crushes or whatever.

Ok, so today we get to work (my wife and I work together) and one of the guys apparently had the talk about celebrity passes with his girlfriend the night before. For any of you not familiar, the idea is that you could have a pass for a celebrity that you could have sex with if the opportunity ever arose and it wouldn't be considered cheating. So this co-worker is telling the story pretty loud and he mentions that his exception is Beyonce and his girlfriend's is whoever it is, I forget.

Normally my wife is pretty reserved and avoids sexual joking at work like the plague but this time she made a bee line out of her office to where we were standing, like literally rushed over, and excitedly told everyone with me standing right there that she "could go for Henry Cavill if I ever had the chance". This was very unusual behavior for her, but again, I was not bothered, I just noted that it was out of character mentally and let her go on about him.

So then my coworker and wife both ask me who my exception is and I say my wife's friend Mandy. Mandy is kind of thick but still very attractive and she is on her way out of an unhappy marriage and she and I have alot in common. I did this just to fuck with my wife a little and see what she would say, not because I have any designs on Mandy.

Anyway, my wife literally gasps and says "not Mandy!" and my coworker laughs because I didn't pick a celebrity. So we talk about it a little more and then I get back to work.

I know this was long but the point is that when we got home my wife volunteered that she didn't really want to have sex with Henry Cavill (pretty sure this was a lie tbh) but that she just said that to mess with me a little. Then she said she was sure that I didn't really want to have sex with Mandy, to which I said nothing, just sort of made a non-committal noise and changed the subject.

My wife was extra nice to me for the rest of the day, to the point that it was very noticeable. I think it is probably the nicest she's been to me in a couple of weeks, at least, not that she is normally ugly or anything but it was obvious she was going out of her way to be extra pleasant.

So anyway, if you ever find yourselves in a similar situation, try that.
