No One by That Name
Some people are simply terrible at naming things. And, for some reason, some people have a hard time correcting others when it comes to their names. They apparently believe it would be impolite or rude to do so. We have no idea why they are grateful for that.
After all, it’s feelings like these that lead to stories like this: where you call someone the wrong name for years and years before realizing you were mistaken the whole time, resulting in a lot of confusion and some strange realizations.
When You Assume…
In most cases, the phrase “your old man” refers to your father. That’s how we’ve always heard it used, at least. However, this man apparently mistook the phrase for a reference to a husband, and as a result, this woman unknowingly lied to him.
However, when she did find out, she continued to act as if she had a husband for some reason rather than admitting she had made a mistake. It doesn’t make sense to continue a lie like this for an unknown period of time.
