Its our 5th wedding anniversary today and I told dh the other day not to buy me anything because he always ends up getting something I do not really need or use. I hinted at a new chain for my necklace or a trip to out local theatre to see Phantom if he were to get me anything. If not just flowers and chocolates. Anyway he was all excited at getting me gift (secretly hoping phantom tickets/jewellery). Any he pulls out a swarovski bag was my first thought. So I open it and their are two wine glasses. I thanked him as they are nice glasses but was secretly disappointed and felt even worse because I knew they are very expensive and I feel sick. I hate wasting money. For one we will rarely use them or id be afraid and two I have no where to store and display them.
I've just looked at the website and they were £240 for 2!!!!!! I was disputing the other day about spending £20 on a set of four glasses which I did really like. I feel very ungrateful but for that price I want to love then not like them!!!! I keep thinking of how many Tiffany bracelets I could buy or how we could of used that money towards a holiday. I feel a bit upset and angry that he's spent a huge amount of out money on something we do not need and something I didn't particularly want. If he had brought flowers and chocolates id be a lot happier. I feel like a spoilt, ungrateful child iykwim. I think I am going to have to tell him... Its like he's being thoughtful but thoughtless iykwim as he doesn't seem to know me by now. He did this a few years ago I ended up getting a refund and getting something else that I loved for £10 instead of the £100 he had spent!!!
