OP - Won’t you be surprised when your DH brings home a gift - FOR YOU - of a T-shirt with a coffee mug on it that says “I OWN YOU.” (meaning you are owned by the coffee/caffeine)
Please, you are fretting about something that you have totally misconstrued. Best that you ask Jeff to delete this thread. |
| Not sure why women would want to discourage this sentiment. A man will fiercely protect and cherish something he owns. |
| This seems like a huge much ado about nothing. |

Toot toot. All aboard the drama train.
Sounds like DH knows what he's working with and figured it would set you off. Maybe he's even reading this right now and getting a laugh. Maybe...he's even posted on this thread. |

The mug can be read two ways. The T-shirt, not so much. Looks like a clueless guy delighted at having made what he thinks is a bargain. You already disabused him, move on. |

While I wouldn't be too happy w/receiving such a gift, if he is from another culture this may or may not be supposed to be taken literally.
I would use this as an opportunity to discuss what meaning he derived from this saying. A great way to open up the communication doors for sure. |
| I would have a serious talk with him about his fashion sense. |
| I would think it was tacky and dumb, but not be offended. My DH doesn't own me and I know it. |
Jeff should add that as some kind of acoustic warning when visiting DCUM. |
It is not the path of wisdom to troll your wife... (Too often, anyway) |
