"just wait" is you telling me that you married the wrong person

Transcript

My husband and I were at dinner about a month and a half ago with some couples that we had never met before. And I was like sitting on his lap, there was only one chair at the bar. So I was sitting on him, you know, so he didn't have to stand, whatever. Didn't matter. And we're just being cute. And someone came up to me and they were like, oh my gosh, I missed when my husband and I were like that. I just love the honeymoon stage. And I was like, yeah, forever honeymoon stage. Since I didn't realize that they thought we had just been married. And then the woman looks at me and she's like, but just wait. And I said, oh, we've been married for nine years. We've been together for almost 14 years. And she was so shocked. Like, I guess love that we're like giving newlywed. But also it's so crazy to look at someone that you're observing them being happy and be like, oh, I love that. Oh my god, that's so cute. Just wait.
