He rose up in his chair and said I misunderstood! Finally he convinced me when I realized - he probably doesn't put HIS face in the water cos he doesn't want to mess up his precious blow-dried hair!
So I was trying to grieve, that for a whole year, I had misunderstood this - so what else do I think I am SO right about, yet I am so wrong? And he just tried to hurry over it. Actually I didn't even get to THAT generalization! It was just about hearing him. And he was like, it's okay, it's not happening now.
