I need to vent for one second. I might sound ungrateful right now but believe me I’m not I’m just emotional for some reason but here we go. So yesterday my husband asked me what I wanted for Mother’s Day and I told him surprise me. Mind you my husband isn’t the romantic kind and I’m trying to get it out of him but anywho I’m laying in the room sick today and he comes in with a bouquet of flowers and a zales bag so instantly I’m smiling so hard even though it isn’t Mother’s Day he thought about me. So anywho he hands me the flowers which were only about 10$ for which I’m still grateful. So I noticed he sits the zale bag in the bathroom on the counter so I’m thinking whatever it is obviously mines. So I got downstairs for a drink and I noticed two other bouquets that look exactly like mines and I asked who are those for, he said for his mom and sister. So then I ask well who got something from zales and he was like “oh I bought myself some 100$ earrings”. Soooo yeah of course buying your mother and sister and I the same flowers and by yourself something special was suppose to make me feel special. Yeah ok. Do you girls think I’m overreacting and being selfish?? Honest opinions
Well I’ll definitely update y’all later and let y’all know 🤣 I highly doubt I get anything but we’ll see
Still not Mother’s Day... maybe, hopefully for his sake, he will have an awesome gift for you tomorrow! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Maybe he is trying to surprise you. If not i would tell him about himself
Like I have seen a couple people who said that he probably going to surprise you just wait and see
Buy him a pack of socks for Father's day and get yourself a nice necklace the day before. Bam. Lol. I'd be irritated though.
@ebonymiller39 I like to match the petty as best as I can 😂 last year I didn't get anything. I already bought his crap that year so this year he's not getting crap 😂😂😂
@ebonymiller39, I would speak up & say something. Let him know it hurt your feelings. It’s not even about the money it’s about the thought that went into it. I believe he should have been thinking of a more personal & special gift for you & gave his mom & sister the flowers. Flowers are nice not saying he shouldn’t or couldn’t get them for you as well, but not matching theirs & certainly not JUST that if that’s exactly what he got them.
I'd be upset too but maybe wait to see what he actually does for you on mother's day. Maybe those flowers were more just because...
I wish I could be that hopeful but he works all day tomorrow so what I got today was the gift for Mother’s Day 😢
@ebonymiller39 well damn I was trying to give the benefit of doubt. Maybe he will surprise you. Him getting nice earrings for himself is pretty selfish. Keep his same energy when Father's Day comes around 😍
I'd be mad and I'd tell him. *granted maybe he got another gift there too as a surprise for tomorrow. 🤷♀️ but
I'd just remind him that his gifts for me are from the kids and to have the kids pick items for me or he needs to. Maybe to drive it home I'd ask his mom in front of him "I'm wondering, what did you get from 'husbands name' when he was 'your child age'."
Trust me the “Surprise” I got today was it I can assure you. He works 12 hours shift tomorrow so that’s why he chose to do it today 🙄 I would normally be petty but I’m too sick for that today 🤣🤣🤣 but I’m definitely asking him calmly as possible once his family leaves. I just literally wanna know how the heck did he think buying all of us the same thing was just cool like that. I’m his wife they are his mom and sister that’s a huge difference 🤦♀️
@ebonymiller39 for sure! I'd definitely let him know that's no cool. Unless of course your buying him and his brother and all Male relatives the same things too. 😅
I'd definitely call him on it. Plus a father's job is to teach his kids how to appreciate their mothers on mothers day. His mother shouldn't get the same gift has his sister either 🤦♀️
I'd be super annoyed. He probably shopped the mother's day sale at Zales to get those earrings lol
🤣🤣 I bet he did. And still didn’t even think twice about getting his wife maybe a new wedding ring or necklace or something 🤬
Lmaoo💀 definitely hit a sale🤣 but @ebonymiller39, I’d be annoyed to girl!
Girl I’m pissed. Trust me he’s going to hear about this soon as his family leaves. I can’t hold this shit in 🤬
No I don’t think your over reacting. I mean him buying you his sister and mother the same flowers could be summed up as just being a man and not realizing it isn’t as special if it’s basically the same for all. However I find him buying himself a gift the day before Mother’s Day to be completely selfish.
Buy him a pack of socks for Father's day and get yourself a nice necklace the day before. Bam. Lol. I'd be irritated though.
