Anyone else have this with their DH/DP?

DH: "I got you a present!"
Me: "ooh thanks, a Twix! Yum!"
...a few minutes later
DH: "are you going to open it then?"
Me: "not yet"
DH: "can I have it then"

Gahhhhh! Just buy one for yourself & stop pretending you got it for me! Drives me mad Angry

slightly different but mum has said she's giving us her (very nice but very large) dining table when we buy a house. Currently use the breakfast bar in rented place.

As I said it is a nice table but is a 6 - 10 seater oak think with 6 leather seats, goes with nothing we currently own and will take up the entirity of any of the dining rooms / kitchens in the houses we have been viewing.

Wouldn't mind so much but she openly said it was because she doesn't really use it any more and could use the space better - with 2 young children we also need the space! Of course if we buy our own (would have to save up) we'll get accused of wasting money!!
