My Date Asked Me to Wear My Tallest Heels\u2014Then I Discovered Why<\/strong><\/p>\n

At 74 and six feet eight, I\u2019d heard every height joke. So when Richard, my first date in 12 years, asked me to wear heels, I thought he admired me.<\/p>\n

But at dinner, he kept checking the street. Then he asked me to stand beside the window.<\/p>\n

When an SUV stopped outside, he grabbed my wrist and tried to rush me out. The restaurant manager intervened.<\/p>\n

\u201cMa\u2019am, do you want to go with him?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI came because I liked you,\u201d I told him. \u201cYou should have trusted me with the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

After a handwritten apology, I eventually agreed to coffee. This time, I chose the caf\u00e9, the time, and my shoes.<\/p>\n

Another date? Perhaps. But rebuilding trust would take more than an apology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
