DHs do you use Pinterest to get gift ideas for your wives?

[Anonymous]

I have a friend whose DH got a Pinterest account so he can follow her boards and get her gifts she wants. She has also made a WANT LIST board with everything she wants. I think it's adorable! My DH doesn't even know what Pinterest is and wouldn't ever consider signing up since he's think it's girly.

Does anyone else do this?

No. Don't do Pinterest.

My husband looks on my favorite list and buys what I have on there.

No. My wife tried to get me to use Pinterest (probably for this very reason) but I found it to be a giant waste of time and can't even remember my password. I just ask her what she wants.

To each their own, but I would think it was weird if my DH did that.

I think that's sweet. But whatever works for a couple ... this wouldn't work for us bc I am not a Pinterest person

No. If I didn't know my wife well enough to buy her things she adores without her telling me specifically or running to Pinterest, I have just epically failed.

I love Pinterest! I miss my account.

My husband has no fucking clue.

Most of us don't. I'm guessing the PP can pick out shoes and purses for his wife. That makes him either gay or a special snowflake. To be fair, my wife really doesn't know what I want either. She thinks she does, and I'll humor her, but when she asks me what I want she gets annoyed because it's not what SHE wanted to get for me.

I'm the wife, but I tried to get my husband to do that. He asked what I wanted for Christmas and I directed him to Pinterest. He bitched about that.

A). I wouldn't buy shoes or a purse as a gift. Those things can just be purchased.

B). If you really have no clue, you are really pretty much ignoring her. Listening helps. I can't tell you how many times she's opened something and asked how I knew and the easy answer is she had said something and I actually listened.

BTW, your use of perjoratives as an attack here pretty much confirms that you are, as you say, clueless.

Honestly if you have to make a pinterest board, just buy the shit yourself and be happy about it. I mean the money is coming out of the same pot and the end result is the same (you get the yoga pants you wanted), so why bitch that he has to buy it?

It's spelled pejorative. My, aren't you the sensitive modern man?
