His Wife Is Furious He Didn’t Take The Blame When She Passed Gas At A Dinner Party With Their Friends
This 38-year-old man and his wife, who is 36, recently went out to a dinner party with a large group of their friends.
For a while, everything was going great, and they were all having a wonderful time. Well, that was until his wife committed a bit of a faux pas.
“My wife farted really loud,” he recalled.
He was obviously sitting next to his wife at dinner when it happened, too, so he tried to pretend like nothing happened. He also started quickly talking in hopes of just changing the topic and diverting everyone’s attention.
Unfortunately, though, his attempt was too late.
“One of the [people] at the dinner started laughing, and, of course, my wife got very embarrassed,” he recalled.
At first, she just tried to “act dumb” and asked the guy what he was laughing at. But the guy didn’t get the hint and responded, “There’s nothing wrong with letting one go.”
According to him, the guy’s comment wasn’t intended to comfort his wife, either.
That’s why he immediately told the guy off, and the guy proceeded to apologize for the comment.

At that point, his wife did speak up and claimed that she didn’t “let anything go.” Instead, she actually said it was him who did it. Now, at that moment, he sort of froze and hesitated. So, it was obvious to everyone that it was really his wife who did it.
“If I took the blame, they would have probably believed me. It didn’t help that the fart smelt really bad,” he explained.
Anyway, his wife was just off for the rest of the night following that incident. She really just wanted to leave the dinner and head home.
Still, they didn’t leave until about two hours later. And while they were on their way home, his wife admitted that she was really angry with him and disappointed. Apparently, she wanted him to take the fall.
“You should have said it was you,” his wife told him.
Now, in hindsight, he realizes that he probably should’ve done that for his wife.
“But it’s hard to think that quick on your feet when under pressure,” he vented. “I thought I did pretty well by trying to talk about something else.”
Regardless, his wife was in tears and felt extremely embarrassed. She’s also still mad at him for not saying he was the culprit. So now, he’s been left wondering whether not taking the blame for his wife really made him a jerk.
If you were in his wife’s shoes, how would you have felt? Does it sound like he tried his best to act quickly? Does his wife have a right to be angry at him or not?
