The other day a lady was checking out at the Burg Grocery and another lady waiting in line exchanged pleasantries and then asked how her husband was doing. That was wrong to ask!
The first lady then let let it be known that her husband had died six years ago to the date. She kept telling the questioner that she should have remembered because she had worked for her husband. She then preceeded to go on and on about the lady not remembering.
When an embarrassing situation arises, we should not make the person feel worse than I am sure they already do. Just say something like "Yes, I have forgotten a situation like that before too!" Don't keep rubbing it in!
