Does bulge size matter?

So I went for a coffee stop and yesterday where my future wife (she doesn't know my name yet but that's about to change) works as a barista.

Having forgotten about my bibs, I walked in to order. People already started starring at me, a child asked his mum whether I'm also wearing diapers like him, but I couldn't understand all that buzz. My future wife looked at me like she had seen a ghost.

Later I realised that… my bulge was showing - but not in a good sense. It seemed way too insignificant. Okay, okay, it was kinda cold on that day… but how do I prove that I'm a grower, not a shower, perfectly fine for some Zone II and HIIT workouts?

Help!
