Boyfriend bought me sexy underwear

So my boyfriend of 5 years gave me a cheap love honey Lacey body for Christmas and I'm a bit upset. It wasn't the only thing he got me, but my face lit up when he said that he had an extra gift for me, once the kids were upstairs...

I feel cheap and disrespected 😢

AIBU?

I can't see the problem.

If he spent £2 on cheap chocolates that he liked then yes, probably

You’re disrespecting him by dissing his present on mumsnet! Isn’t anything private anymore? You also sound a tad mercenary if I’m being honest! Bit of gratitude is in order!

Oh OP, crotchless even. That is bad.

In his own way (and granted he probably got the style,shape, and size completely wrong) he will have meant well, and will have genuinely thought that you’d look sexy in it, so don’t take it too seriously.

This is obviously a reflection of your relationship. DH and I enjoy lots of stuff like this, often send each other links on love honey and had an advent calendar from them this year.
If I was presented with this I would take it as an invitation for a fun evening.

Completely agree with you. If my boyfriend bought me something like this, I'd be waiting in anticipation for the chance to get it on. If my ex husband had bought it for me, I would have been mortified.
