I had a “big” birthday recently and my wife threw a gathering for family and friends in a back room at our favorite restaurant. It was a great time - great food and drink and lots of catching up.

At 11pm it was still going strong, but kids and some of the older folks had made their exits. That’s when my wife sprang a surprise on me - she changed into my favorite dress (which she hadn’t worn in 7 years) and sang me Happy Birthday (she is a singer).

It was super moving and fun and a little sexy too. The dress is…quite revealing. Like, not something she’d typically wear around family. It’s short and tight and quite low cut. But people at the party knew it was coming (she had actually asked a few people if they thought the dress was too much).

People at the restaurant peeked in while she was singing, it was a big deal.

Two of the friends at the party posted a pic of her singing on instagram, though. The comments on the dress were really over the top. The pics are still out there.

Would it be out of line to ask them to pull down the pics? Or am I overthinking? AITAH if I do?
