I'm very frustrated with my husband - he bought his mom a book for Mother's Day. Honestly, it wasn't the most expensive book - it was just a paperpack, but I was planning to wrap it up really nicely with some ribbon and flowers. I planned to make it look really nice.
So we come home today - and he jumps out of the car, grabs the book - it's still in the Barnes and Noble bag with the receipt!!! - and shoves it in her face.
Urg! Then I had to use her computer to order flowers for my mom.
I'm just so annoyed with him right now.
Advice?
Husband's great Mother's Day surprise...?
My fiance did the same thing at a birthday party recently. We were running really late %26amp; I was going to wrap it when we got there. He just handed over the bag WITH the wrapping paper in there %26amp; an unsigned card. And then he just looks at me like "what?" I wanted to slap him. Anyway, sometimes men just don't think the way we do. They care about what's IN the bag, not how it looks. You should see what some of my Xmas presents looked like from him. LOL! You just gotta have a sense of humor about it.
Reply:LOL he sounded excited to give it to his mom..
I would go and get her some flowers and tell her I wanted to wrap it for you but your son got WAY to excited about giving it to you..and laugh and hug her LOL
Reply:Tell him to go to the grocery store or local florist and order flowers for her. That's not fair. :( Tell him to take those flowers to her with a card and a hug and a happy mother's day, mom!
Reply:I know that little things can be very irritating, but I expect your mother in law was pleased he thought of her, even if the book wasn't wrapped up. She's his mother after all, let him give her what he wants how he wants.
Reply:Try to shrug it off. If that's what you consider a problem, then you have it made.
Reply:Love him anyway...
Does "for better or for worse" ring a bell?
Keep reading some questions on here if you need a new perspective of what "for worse" could mean.
Reply:Hope he doesn't treat you the same way. Honestly, sit down and talk about the issue with him. He may not realize that he is not Mr.Sensitive.
Reply:Look at it this way he bought her something....that says alot
