I don't understand this but yes girl your over reacting 🤣 let this one go
@Lisa it’s one of those to mom from daughter necklaces. The charm symbolizes a mother daughter relationship. You can find them at belk.
Some of us didn’t get Vday gifts: yes you’re overreacting 🤣
To me it seems he was trying to include both his girls in the gift. Yes, that may be more of a typical mothers day gift but I do see where he was trying to come from. I think it came from a sweet place! Many men wouldnt even attempt gift giving for valentines day. I can also see where OP is coming from too. You wanted something that was just for you from him and in of course a romantic package so to speak. You can always have a conversation with your partner about what you were hoping for without putting down his effort he put in this year. What did you get him? Maybe he can see by example of what you expected.
@Elise You’re right. I think my feelings are hurt because he forgot to get me something until he realized I had him a gift this morning, instead of the actual gift itself.
Maybe he didn’t have money. I get what you are saying. You wanted a gift from him that felt like a gift from a husband. My husband will get something from the kids and then something from him. Usually from the kids it’s some art.
@Jem @Kirsten oh no, that’s not what I meant at all. I felt like an after thought and the gift was more out of obligation instead of actually putting thought into it. And it made it seem like he didn’t put any thought into it when it was a Mother’s Day gift. He had to go get me a gift after he realized I had gotten him one.
Is this the first year he has been more last minute or is this a pattern?
@Kirsten First year.
Okay. If that is the case then I truly think this is something to just let go of. Its not his normal. Maybe he has had alot going on and didnt mean to forget... it happens to the best of us. He did come through with something in the end and its the thought that counts.
@Kirsten He’s a good man, wonderful husband, and amazing father. This is probably the case. I’ll let it go. Thanks for helping me through my feelings. This is what I needed to hear. 🙏
I’m confused, what makes it a mother daughter necklace?
