At times discriminative behavior results in us making terrible decisions and that is exactly what happened in the case of Reddit user u/OpenedHouse. OP shared he and his wife had decided to sell their house and downsize so they could save money for retirement. OP hosted an open house and people gathered around. He had a thing for people dressing appropriately for such events so when he saw a woman wearing a tank top, shorts, and flop flops, this triggered him. He assumed just by looking at the woman’s outfit that she was not a serious buyer and asked her to leave.

Later when OP’s wife asked him if a particular woman showed up at the event, he said yes she did. It was the same woman he had kicked out from the open house. Turns out she was a serious buyer and was actively looking to buy a house. The revelation resulted in the couple getting into an argument.

1. Curious to know what made OP think that person wasn’t a serious buyer. Let’s find out.

2. Entering the old age phase of life, OP and his wife planned to start saving more as they decided to downsize by selling their house.

3. So OP arranged an open house which he hosted as his wife was busy doing some other work.

4. As per OP’s memories, he has seen people dress up elegantly for such events. However, seeing that everyone was wearing jeans and a shirt…he decided not to raise a question mark on this.

5. However one woman stood out to OP at the open house because of the way she was dressed, and for bringing a dog with her. It seems he felt uncomfortable seeing her present there at his house.

6. Because of this, OP assumed she wasn’t a serious buyer and asked her to leave the event.

7. Later when the event had ended, OP’s wife asked him if he saw a particular woman at the open house. It was the woman he had asked to leave.

8. The woman was a friend of OP’s wife. The two work in the same company.

I really didn’t understand what was the need to kick the woman out of the event. It only made things worse for OP as now we know she was friends with his wife. The two may erupt into a fight, we will have to wait and read to see if that happens.

But judging a person by the way they dressed and assuming solely on that factor that she was not a serious buyer is a very foul thing to do. What if she was a serious buyer? What if she had plans to make an offer that same day? We will never know.

Let’s see what happens next. Scroll down below to continue reading!

9. See! She was a serious buyer. OP made a blunder!

10. And the dog she had with her at the event was her service dog.

11. OP stood his ground firmly saying this wouldn’t have happened had the woman dressed appropriately…and his wife wanted him to call the woman on a dinner and apologize to her.

15. Just focus on the deals, why do you care what the people there are wearing?
