He took me to&nbsp;<em>La Belle \u00c9poque<\/em>, the most upscale place in town. I was thrilled. I dressed up, did my hair, and was ready to enjoy a romantic evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I scanned the menu, I smiled and said I\u2019d love the lobster bisque and filet mignon. That\u2019s when he leaned in and said, \u201cHow about just a house salad? You\u2019re still trying to lose weight, right? Maybe then you\u2019ll fit into that red dress I love next time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My heart sank. I laughed nervously, hoping he was joking. He wasn\u2019t. He waved over the waiter and ordered for me: \u201cShe\u2019ll have the house salad. I\u2019ll take the ribeye, medium rare.\u201d He didn\u2019t even look at me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I sat there, mortified, nibbling on lettuce while he devoured a three-course meal and topped it off with chocolate souffl\u00e9. \u201cShe\u2019s done,\u201d he told the waiter as he sipped his wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I was already planning something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The next day, while he was at work, I put my plan into motion. When he came home, the house was quiet. No dinner, no hello. Just a note in the kitchen:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cMeet me at La Belle \u00c9poque at 7 PM. Dress nicely. \u2013 Emma\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>He showed up, dressed sharp and grinning, probably thinking I\u2019d forgiven him. I was already seated in&nbsp;<em>that red dress<\/em>\u2014the one he said I couldn\u2019t wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I smiled, waved him over, then stood up and handed him an envelope. Inside was a receipt\u2014for a&nbsp;<em>prepaid dinner for one<\/em>, my full-course meal already covered. Next to it was a second note:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cEnjoy watching someone else eat tonight. I\u2019ll be back when you learn what it means to treat your wife with respect.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Then I turned, walked out, and left him sitting there alone\u2014this time with nothing but a house salad and his own arrogance for company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mark promised to make our tenth anniversary unforgettable.
