I’m a wife and yes, my husband does thank me for picking up groceries.

Every single one of us has felt a bit slighted or a little bit hurt for not feeling appreciated. his feeling are normal and happen on the wife side all the time.

That’s pathetic that your H thanks you every time you... grocery shop, do laundry, do some dishes, mow the lawn, clean the kitchen, rake the leaves, get the oil changed, flip a pancake.


Jesus people this is just life nobody needs to thank you for getting the Fing mail!

I'm with pp. I thank my husband for those things because I am actually quite grateful. I hated it -- HATED it! -- when he didn't say thank you or acknowledge things I'd done. My DH doesn't like being thanked, he thinks it is just stuff you need to do. But I think it is important to show gratitude for the small things (and the big). Why would you think it was pathetic that somebody had done something to make you feel good and cared for, and they say thank you for that??

I'm sorry you can't understand that other people have different feelings, and that you are so aggressively angry at the world right now. Maybe you should try some yoga, or meditation, or a gratitude journal.

I’m sorry you are so aggressively needy.

But thanks for responding to my post I don’t want you to think I’m ungrateful that you took your precious time to type out your psychotic response.

Sorry have to go and thank my son for taking the dog out, thank my H for pouring me more wine, thank my daughter for getting the Amazon package from the porch.

Are you kidding? This is absolutely the time to bite your tongue. It's annoying but it's not a Big Deal. Crab a little bit anonymously on the Internet, drink a beer or two, and let the irritation pass. Turning it into A Talk would be a bad idea.

OP - I don't really need a lot of gratitude here. Probably a bad title. What I didn't need is instruction on how I can do it better next time. But dinner was good, we had a lot of laughs. (The wine helped!)

So to you it’s needy but I wouldn’t think twice about saying hey thanks.

Yes to expect thanks 45 times a day for every thing you do .. yes, it’s needy. Grow up.

Ahhhhh- I never said I expected it and I don’t.

Why so bitter and angry? Never mind, you don’t have to answer that.

Her response, "you should always just get six." I guess there's a deal with six and it's always better to have more around. But, I have to say, that irritated me. I did something nice, and here she's offering a critique on how I could do more for her.

I mean, I'm no hero - the dinner is spaghetti and it was just one bottle of wine. But, Jesus, if someone does something nice, just say "thank you" and go about your business.

My SO would have just growled “I’ve got 6 for you” and then given it to me that night 🤷‍♀️
