Dear Severance Nation Abby
Occasionally, Severance Nation Army will perform a public service by responding to requests for advice submitted to our most respected advice columns. Today’s entry:
DEAR ABBY: I love my husband, but how do you make a man stop embarrassing you in public?
My husband flirts openly with cashiers right in front of me, and asks complete strangers walking by if they would “like to buy a wife cheap.”
Yesterday we went out to lunch and the bill was $18.42. He made a big fuss about it with the cashier, then loudly informed me it was my “fat a–” meal that cost so much. Abby, my meal was $6. I died a million deaths that day.
My husband is proud to have the nickname “Mr. Rude.” Many of my friends avoid him because of his rudeness. He tells me people think it’s funny, but I know they are offended. — NOT LAUGHING IN CINCINNATI
