My DH and I have had a really difficult few years. We have no children (part of the difficulty)
This year, as I do every year since we have been together I have run myself ragged sorting presents for everybody we know including his family as well as planned and catered for Christmas dinner at our house with my family.
I have learned to accept he's not the best at using his initiative to pick presents for me so when asked I'll give him a list of what I'd like and try and make it very easy.
A few weeks ago, a gift arrived that I hadn't chosen but it's a brand I liked. DH showed me as he wanted to be sure I'd like it.
It was a PJ set but the top and bottom didn't match so I said I'd prefer it if I could have different bottoms to match the top. He agreed, we went onto the brand website together and chose another pair of bottoms and he said it was all in hand and he would go and order the new ones and send the old ones back.
Fast forward to today, I've just opened my present.... and the original top and bottoms that don't match are there. I do know that this in itself is not a big deal... but I'm just so upset. DH tried to say this was what I'd asked for but it's clear he had messed up! I just feel so upset that I have planned his presents and his families to a T and yet mine has been a clear after thought and he hadn't even looked at what he was wrapping.
I do know I am probably being unreasonable but I need to rant. DH has now stormed out the house and I have to sort everything out for dinner now... just want to go back to bed!
