My Blindness of Direction: Is it Right or Left?

Dear friends, I really want to make a survey in this blog whether it is only ME who has this habit.  The habit is I always say my right side as left and my left side as right!! Maybe this is funny for some people, but it does annoy for other people, like my husband. I do not do this on purpose, it is just spontaneous.

Here is the story, I had made him take a long route once when we had holidays and we got lost. It was only because I asked him we had to turn left while it supposed to turn right. Oh no! If you think this happened once, you have mistaken because it happens almost every time he asked direction to me. I wonder why he keeps asked me direction while he knows well will get the wrong one. Love can be blind sometime.

The funny thing is I ever answered him to turn left, but he did turn right and it was correct! How humiliate I was. He said that he will remember this all of his life as a long-lasting joke, so he can tell it to our children in the future. Then we found a solution for this habit. From now on, please do not say right or left if others ask. Just point it, to the right or to the left. But still, when I point to the left, my mouth says to the right! Ughh.. is there any cure for this bad habit?

So, my friends... I do hope if you or your family or your friends have the same habit of mine, please please share with me. I want to show to my husband that I am not the only one in this world who have this habit. Will you help me then? Thanks in advanced.
