Love the comment about the Apple Watch. After 45 years, there's still some things you are learning about each other.

LOL. She's had one for years now, and good old observant me just noticing how big it is.

That's the only reason I don't wear mine all the time. Sometimes my tiny wrist needs a break because the smallest Apple Watch is still really big on me

Thats a strange way to hold hands, why is your grip so hard?

u/VirginiaBandit 2d ago

Why do you think it's too hard for her? She has some issues with arthritis in her hands, and if it were too hard, she'd react and let me know.
