"My own attire, while always clean, is very casual. I've gotten used to people confusing me with someone wearing a Bus Driver uniform."

It's a great look but not everybody can pull it off.

You've probably seen the paint-store sign that reads, "Husbands selecting colors must have a note from their wife." -lol-

That being said, there are several men who just don't have the desire (or time!) or even no-how on how to look their best, so they appreciate the help from their significant other.

Which brings me to a funny story: My father's name was Cardinell, and my mother would accompany him, when the need arose, to select a suit (for funerals, weddings, dinners), and one time the salesman kept overhearing her say, "What do you think of this one, Cardinell?" Or, "How about trying this one on?" Well, the salesperson took my father to be a Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church, and my mother as his secretary aiding him in his purchase, and my father (a non-church-attending Lutheran) quickly realized what was happening, and he played along to the hilt. He said he got the best service ever! :)

I knew a guy who insisted on choosing his wife’s clothing.

That marriage didn’t last very long.

I want to know how many decades does it take for a husband to chose his outfit for the day from his own closet. It’s worse than Jeff Foxworthy’s Flamingo Dance joke. Does this match? How about this? Maybe this? Why doesn’t blue go with green? But I don’t like those shoes.

When the guy is colorblind - you help him as soon as you can.

I not only buy his clothes, I match them up when they come out of the wash. All he has to do is go to the closet and grab an outfit on a hanger. He, in turn, is responsible for purchasing all of the gasoline and the maintenance of all of our vehicles. Our system works.

Ronald Reagan was also colorblind and depended and Nancy picked out his clothes for him.

“I’ve gotten used to people confusing me with someone wearing a Bus Driver uniform. That is how bland and consistently nondescript I look most the time”

But still the beautiful women flock to you. :-)
