I went out tonight with a friend from nursing school for dinner and a movie. Typically we go right from my work and then head for an early movie. But tonight she had something going on with her son so we didn't get to the restaurant until nearly 7:30 pm.
We were sitting at a table in the far back of the restaurant and I was facing into the restaurant with a good view of pretty much every table and the entrance.
About 15 minutes after we were sitting, a couple was shown to a table, one away from where we were. Imagine my surprise to see it was 2 co-workers; a doctor and a nurse. He is married, she isn't. And it wasn't some "thank you for all of your hard work" or "business dinner" on a Friday night at 8:00 pm. They were sitting intimately next to each other at a square table, and they were sharing plates of food, and even feeding each other the occasional bite from their own plates.
She tends to dress rather nice for work (nice business office attire), but today she looked exceptionally dressed up and her hair was done differently than it usually is when she is at work. So now I know why!
I'm not sure if they saw me, but my friend is pretty sure that he did because she was facing a mirror and saw him casually turn his head as if he were trying to see behind him (he was sitting with his back to us).
My friend was livid when I told her that he has been married to his current wife for about 2 years or so, and that he had just come back from an East Coast vacation with his family.
I told her that I didn't think I was supposed to see what I saw, and that I'm just going to keep my mouth shut about it because it's none of my business, and it would make for a very awkward working environment. So I'm just going to pretend like I didn't see them.
My friend on the other hand was livid. Her husband cheated on her (they are now divorced), and she told me that we should have taken a video and posted it all over the internet!!! And that I should approach them at work about it.
I told her that I'm going to stay out of it.

That's the type of thing to think but do nothing about.
