I shared a tent with a guy who told me that he had a crush on my wife!
My wife worked part time as a Wilderness and Conservation Tour Guide. The company that she worked for, offered am extended weekend tour where the group would load up and hit the trails on Friday, until they reached the first camp site. Then they would hit the trails again until they reached the second camp site where they would camp the night. On Saturday they would take the river tour and reach a hotel, where they would stay the night. Sunday morning would be a drive back through the off road routes and they would be stopping at places to take pictures etc.
I always wanted to go but I could not afford these back then. My wife then got a coupon which offered a very tempting discount. But the company policy said that you could not bring your own family on these coupons. Now we are a bi-racial couple because my wife happens to be white, while I am a brown guy. We could be standing next to each other and no one would know that we are a couple. Furthermore we also do not have the same last names. We decided that I should use the coupon and go along and no one needs to know we are married. We just needed to act like we are meeting for the first time.
The problem is that when you have been married for seven years, you will instinctively act towards each other in ways that may be shocking to everyone around you. Furthermore, I got paired up with this guy who was a very nice fellow. Except, on our way to the first camp site he tells me that he thinks the guide was the first "bald chick" that he thought was "hot."
My wife's real job back then was working with cancer patients. In order to show support to the women there, she used to shave her head completely, and then put on make up and do the whole "bald is beautiful" thing. He was looking at my wife and telling me that he never thought a "bald chick" would be hot.
That night when we were in our tent he tells me, "There are very few women in the world who can pull of the bald but feminine look and she (my wife) is one of them." I was starting to get a little bit annoyed but I said, "Yes she is feminine!" He goes on to say "With a bust like hers? Of course! She is all woman!" I wanted to tell him to STFU and go to bed but I just pretended I am asleep just so that he would stop that conversation.
I woke up feeling a bit conscious about how she was appearing to others and yes that kind of attire can be suggestive even though that may not be the intention behind it. She was wearing a white t-shirt with a low neck line and every time she would bend over to pick something up in the river, the boobs would seem like they would spill out. Furthermore the tshirt was also wet and it would get transparent where it is just like walking around in bra and jeans.
I pulled my wife aside and we had a bit of an argument in suppressed tone. I told her that this guy is a creep and your tatas are out there for him to look at. She said that it was a mistake to bring me along and I better not do anything stupid to embarrass her. I said well you have to dress for this particular group here and not everyone is staring at the wilderness. Anyway there was a bit of unspoken tension in the air and there were these two women who noticed it.
We got to the hotel and were given our two separate rooms. I did not want any further tension between us so when everyone was asleep, I knocked on her door. It turned out to be the wrong room. The door was opened by one of the women who sensed tension between us. I apologized and asked her for where the "tour guide" was and her room was the one right next to her.
She went inside and I knocked the door. My wife opened and I looked around to see if no one is watching. Then I went inside and we had a more mature conversation. I ended up staying the night in there and next morning when I woke up and stepped out, she the woman next door was stepping out at the exact same time.
She figured out that I had slept with the "tour guide" and was shocked! She also told her friend and throughout the drive back, they both looked at me like they were looking into my soul and they would look at my wife like she was a total "slut."
I was sitting with my partner, the same guy I had shared a tent with. He told me that if she did not have a ring on her finger he would have asked her out. I told her that her husband would have a lot to say about it. He goes "No kidding!" Then he says "Dude I have seen you check her out too!" and then he winked.
That was the last tour my wife lead for that company. But we have some pictures and crazy memories.
