[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH was so appreciative of his gifts and truly enjoyed the day. I am so happy to see him happy, he deserves it. For the DWs complaining about lack of gifts just buy yourself something and wrap it! Hope you don’t have kids who watch you martyr out and not have anything to open. So damaging. [/quote]

I didn’t actually see anyone complaining about this, but this advice is so bizarre.

You buy your own gift, wrap it, and then open it in front of your husband when he opens the gifts you got him?  Do you both pretend that he got it for you?  Is it all a show for the kids?  And why don’t your kids give you a present?   [/quote]

IDK.  I buy my own gift, as I am very particular in what I like.  It never makes it under the tree, especially because this year it’s a very well bred Dutch Warmblood foal and won’t fit!

I honestly don’t want my DH to have to try to buy me gifts.  He isn’t good at it, but so am certainly no martyr.  I don’t understand complaining about the same thing over and over and not doing something to change the dynamic.  It is like some people enjoy the drama of it.  Not me![/quote]

I don’t understand why you would say that something you bought yourself is a Christmas present from your husband.  It clearly isn’t.  You and he both know that.  Why the weird game?  [/quote]

It is weird that your only idea of a gift is a tangible item purchased by another and wrapped, then placed under a tree.  Are you think inflexible in all walks of your life?[/quote]
