Yes, you're special, and if you'd suit me I'd be after you, but alas, we
wouldn't match, so we leave things as they are. (Sorry Kate! DLRVF) ;-)

I'm with you, Alan. I actually look forward to a shopping expedition
with my wife, especially visiting nearby cities,which we sometimes call
"Bill and Jo's excellent adventure" after the 80's film with a similar name.
I have plenty of hobbies and interests to occupy my retirement (12 yrs
now) and so does she, with grand and great-grand kids and volunteer work
(as much as her fibro. allows), so we seek out activities to share;
shopping being one.
Fortunately, I've always been a clothes-horse and don't need coaxing on
that account, but why not, among several alternate choices, let her pick
the garment SHE would like to see me in? Also, I'm severely color-blind
and she has excellent color sense. Sometimes when shopping solo I have
to ask a shopper about the color of a shirt if no clerk is about.
Luckily, no offense is taken to these requests by the usual women
shoppers here in the upper-midwest US, (think "Fargo").
If we're shopping for her clothes only, she'll sometimes ask me to
accompany her to a store or two for feedback, but otherwise I'm at
liberty to seek out my own stores, usually bookstores, or I'll bring
along a book to read in the car. In either case:
One of the outstanding benefits of these shopping expeditions is their
concluding relaxation of a private shared lunch or dinner in a new or
favored restaurant in the company of my best friend.
