So myself and my partner have a baby.
my partner is VERY popular….think a famous artist’s musician…so we get stopped EVERYWHERE! (Exhausting) before baby I’d just walk off and leave him to catch me up. Obviously now if were out with the baby people will “ahhhh is this the baby” totally ignore me and dive into my pushchair! Im standing there like a muppet! Whilst he does the “proud dad” no introduction like oh this is my partner xyz.
Today took this biscuit we were out (won’t say where as then you’d know who im talking about 😂) a lady comes up, my partner has our baby in his arms and she’s streching out like she wants a hold of the baby. My face must of said it all, as partners sister stepped in and say “ohhh this is xyz, pqr’s partner”
what would you all do in my situation.
am i overreacting??

He's an artist's musician? Trying to work out which artists have musicians (or am I missing the point)

Same, this confused me so much I couldn't concentrate on the rest of the lost tbh 🤦‍♀️

My partner is the head of his office in quite an important job. If we're ever out and he meets someone from work, he often forgets to introduce me and it really annoys me. He'll be there chatting away and I'm stood there like a lemon! He does apologise when I pull him up on it, but the real reason is he's often forgotten their name!! This probably isn't the case for you, though, and I'm sorry that you feel invisible. Have you told him how it makes you feel? If I approached a famous person (I wouldn't....), I would be extremely polite and make their partner feel as important as them.

So he's like a drummer or guitarist for some famous singer then?

Yes he's rude not to introduce you.

I wanted him to paint pictures of famous people. That would be cool.
