So, DH was doing a performance at one of those hometown "dancing with the stars-esque" events. For some reason, the song stopped in the middle of their dance. First response normally would be for them to pause, look at the sound guy (to see if he/she felt they could start the song back) then either end the dance in a pretty turn...or dance the remainder of the routine without music. My husband decided to SING the song at that particular moment. So he's dancing and singing this song A CAPELLA at the same time. He said about a few measures into it, he realized it was a grave mistake but it was TOO LATE! He had committed. I laugh every time I think about it...so does his family!
Oh that is fantastic! What song did he sing? I have one too.
So when my H and I were still just dating he went with my family on a vacation/to a wedding. One night I sit down at the table with my cousin and our conversation was really serious. About prior abuse and alcoholism. We talked for about 30 minutes before we were interrupted by someone. As we turn to speak to this new person we all see my H crawl out from under the table and try to sneak out the room. I was like wtf, and my cousin said "dude, were you creeping under there the whole time? What's your problem?" And he just mumbled sorry and left. I was so embarrassed and confused.
That night when we were going to bed I finally was able to ask him what happened. Turns out he saw me coming but didn't see my cousin, so he hid under the table with the intention of startling and tickling me. We were dating, so don't judge us Then suddenly he was trapped under there as this conversation happened and he couldn't get out without being horribly awkward. And then he got caught sneaking out. It was so bad, but never intended in a creepy way.
My cousin still thinks he has mental issues and advised me not to marry him. Lol.
He wasn't my H yet but while we were dating in high school, we both had dogs. He had a husky who was notorious for running away. I had a golden retriever who knew how to stay in the yard. But apparently H didn't know this because we were outside with my parents playing with the dog and when he started running around the yard, H chased him and tackled him to the ground so he wouldn't get away, lol. We were all like. ..what are you doing? ! Lol.
Bahaha, I laughed at both so far. That's fantastic. I have one as well.
After we were married a few members of my family came down to see us and spend the weekend. Well my H had gotten a pair of fuzzy pajama pants a few years prior. Not realizing I had washed and dryed them and were in a pile to donate since they shrunk so badly. He puts them on and comes out into the living room where everyone was and we all busted out laughing since they were so tight and short. He didn't notice until the laughter began. We still laugh to this day lol!
I can't think of a really funny story about my H, but some of your "meet the parents" stories reminded me of a funny story with my ex-bf. This is more funny because of my grandmother, not the ex.
So my mom was on the phone with her mother, my grandmother, telling her that my boyfriend, Eric, was going to be at Christmas eve dinner the next day. My grandmother had some difficulties hearing. This is their conversation:
Mom: mac08's boyfriend Eric will be there tomorrow. gma: Oh, Derek, I like that name. mom: No, it's Eric, with an E gma: with a G? geric? Mom: no mom, Eric, E-R-I-C gma: with a C? Ceric? I've never heard that name before -my mom gives up at this point -next day, Eric walks into our house gma: oh, is this Josh?
Dh my boyfriend at the time, was house/cat sitting for his folks while they were oot. He decided to start drinking at like 11:00 a.m. That afternoon I was watching something on tv. I can't remember exactly what I was watching I think it was something on animal planet, any how there was a rhinoceros on tv. Dh deadly (drunkly) seriously said and I quote.... "If they call them rhinos for short what do they call them for long Rhinosaus" (rhymes with dinosaur) que me saying: no babe it's a rhinoceros.
