"I should have got the other one..." DH and his irritating purchase regrets

Whenever DH buys anything expensive or important, he takes EONS to make a choice.

A big appliance or as just happened, a new musical instrument, he will stand for hours in the shop trying to choose whilst the assistants get ever more irritated.

Sometimes, he leaves without anything....then goes back later.

He ALWAYS says "Oh....I should have got the other one" a day or so after the purchase.

I pointed this out and he insists that he's happy but he always thinks that...no matter what he buys he worries he made the wrong choice.

It drives me MAD!

How can anyone not know!??

I feel your pain. My husband only wears one style of Doc Martens shoes, and a few years ago they introduced doing Docs for life where you pay £165 which is significantly more than normal price but they guarantee to replace your Docs whenever they wear out or get broken. He started calculating how long on average each pair last him, and how long his life expectancy was!!! It took him four years to decide to buy those Docs for life Grin
