    My wife scoffs...

    ...and rolls her eyes at my new kilt. Anybody in the same boat? I just told her that she doesn't have to appreciate everything the way I do.

    One of my friends scoffs at my kilted endeavors, but my wife-to-be can't get enough of it.

    Is it too late for an annulment?

    I don't have one of those... or plan to...


    Once, long, long ago, I did have a girlfriend who was extremely picky about what other people wore, and I assume she would have scoffed at me having worn a kilt... Although, I'm not so sure about that.

    I did learn a bit about what colors I should avoid wearing, like bright orange or yellow, from her, so...

    Happily single.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    My wife teases me on the rare occasions that I wear p@nts... She loves me in the kilt, and does her level best to make sure I wear it as often as possible. (I say that as if it takes a lot of convincing... ) I'm a lucky guy.

    We've started a support group " My Significant Other Hates Kilts". Check it out, this is a place where we can lament the lack of admiration that we receive at home.

    Fortunately, my wife likes the kilt, especially when I'm all duded up...tie, vest, jacket.

    Give your wife time to come around.

    My wife is neutral. She doesn't much care what I wear. Although, her friends seem to like it My son, on the other hand (he's 5), thinks it is the coolest and wants his own--which I plan to order tomorrow.
