Or do you just leave them to it?

Do you actually buy the card for him?

Do you feel he should do more but you don't get involved?

Just interested 😊 In our case i remind him, but leave him to it AND think he should do more ...

Not usually but we were in a shop with cute 'mum' mugs and presents lately so I suggested he get something.

No! He’s perfectly capable.

I reminded mine over text last night (we don't live together) and he was quite sarcastic - think I offended him!

Possibly fair enough. Won't be reminding him again, anyway.......

Of course not.

No. Why should I ..he is a fully functioning adult who tbh is better organized than me. He often reminds me.

No way would I remind him and certainly wouldn't buy anything.

No, DH is well aware he has a mother, so I don't need to remind him.

Not my circus… Why would anyone, surely our partners are grown ups….🤔

NoSoupForU · 25/03/2025 20:42

What? No of course I don't. He's a grown man and I'm not his PA.

I might remind him a week or so out but usually leave him to it. If he seems under a lot of pressure/stress then I will offer to help by picking something up at the supermarket for such occasions as I am a SAHM and do the big shop.
