# If two friends were sent the wrong hats in the first place, so one hat is
too big and other too small, were they swapped back to right size by the
cloak-room waiter?
Not necessarily, as such adult is likely careful to return the "right"
hat to its lawful owner, than a boy hastily packing off any old hat.
But what of female reaction in each case?
If you want to break a relationship, then any excuse will do, and a wrong
hat gives you a good one. On the other hand, having subsequently met your
true soul mate, any defect is not only overlooked, but seen as just right.
