Irony in How I Met My Husband

The end of this story was ironic. First of all, the reader goes through the story thinking of Chris Watters as the romantic interest for Edie. Then he leaves her hanging. But the most ironic part was the fact that Carmichael assumed that Edie's daily smile was for him. This honestly cracked me up. He was so happy that she was excited to see him but in reality she was really just waiting for word from Chris. This was an interesting twist at the end and I loved it. I didn't really like Chris so I was hoping he would not be the husband.
