Long story short, my partner was made redundant and we were delighted when he finally found a job. I helped him out massively in terms of finance, and he always says he’s grateful.
Before he got his first pay, he constantly said the first thing he’ll do with his money is buy me my favourite flowers to say thank you.
It’s been 4 weeks now and it’s just excuses. They didn’t have the right ones, he wants them from the market, the shop didn’t have any.
I just feel like a bit of a mug and now just feel like he’d only do it to tick that box, not because he wants to.
He works 7-5 and has a 40 minute commute so I get it’s tiring, but surely if he really wanted to, he would.
I just don’t get why he’d say that’d be the first thing he’d buy, and then it’s not.
I do also feel as if he knows what I like, what cheers me up etc, and I’ve had the week from hell. I’ve got so much going on healthwise and he never brings something small back from the shop or anything to cheer me up.
I realise I sound precious but am I just being taken for a mug??
