to be knocked down by his love

My lovely dp give me a such wondrful present
I know it was in past but I can't still shake of from "his love"

He got me such amusing red old stinking hand bag
I was so overpower of his gesture that I have accepted it full of love towards him with out the word of disapproval

I hid it in plastic bag because of the odour
But because I didn't want to hurt his feeling
I have decided to try to do something about it

So I've been washing it and washing it
And washing it
Box of washing powder bottle of conditioner
And it didn't work
The smell become even worst
I should perhaps let dry between uncountable washings

I know he had good intentions but his love this time totally knocked me down

I give it to him back but that wild thought still is doing my head in

Should I also ask him for powder and conditioner money back
Or it will hurt his feelings

My romantic self says that if my mans gave me a red bag that stank I would use it regardless, carrying the smelly thing with pride that such a wonderful mans gave me this gift to show his love.

However, there'd be no getting away from the whiff so I'd probably 'accidentally' drop it in a bucket of bleach and show my appreciation to him in a more traditional way.

Do you think he's been keeping his Hamwidges inside it?

Procrastinating · 20/11/2013 20:35

Did you ask him where he got it from? I'm assuming it was second-hand.

Decribe the smell.

Describe.

Sharon?

Was the bag full of his love? Is this why it smelled? It's an unusual present but maybe he feels a sack of love is a romantic thing. Some mans are like that.

Hmmm, this all smells a bit fishy to me!

BelleOfTheBorstal · 20/11/2013 21:08

Gordy, that last bag is very very wrong.

PacificDogwood · 20/11/2013 21:09

I quite like the goldfish bag - is that wrong? BlushConfused

Famzilla · 20/11/2013 21:27

I really like that goldfish bag Blush

Gruntfuttock · 20/11/2013 21:31

PacificDogwood and Famzilla you may well Blush. I am shaking my head and tutting at you both.

At least, if the goldfish bag smelled fishy, it'd be appropriate - it would add an extra dimension Grin

TalkativeJim · 20/11/2013 21:36
