The situation with my wife was similar. She did not see the point in me getting my CHL. I went ahead and got it. I tried my best to avoid her seeing me put my holster on (this was to avoid any conversation about it). At first, she never knew if I was carrying or not. Then one day, while waiting for the optometrist office to open (an early Saturday morning) we were sitting in a parking. A guy showed up on foot…pacing and talking to himself. My wife was sitting in the car and I was outside the car (smoking) talking to her through her window. At some point my wife whispered “you do have your piece with you right?� I responded (with a big smile on my face)…Yes I do. At that point I knew that she could no longer think of me as being paranoid or anything of the sort. Although nothing came of the situation, I think she realized that one could find them selves in a predicament even in the most unlikely of places. Since then I have not heard any comments like…why do you need piece if you are just going to the grocery store.
