My husband bought me sloth pajamas for Mother's Day, I think it's his way of calling me lazy: Thoughts?

Today is mother’s day, and I didn’t expect anything because, for the last few years, my husband hasn’t gotten me a gift or cook dinner without being told to. I gave up. But today, I woke up, and he had our seven-year-old hand me a shopping bag full of stuff. A DVD for a movie I mentioned once, a plush hedgehog, and a reaaaaaaaaaaaally ugly set of pajamas. I like the plush because it fits my son’s personality and is sentimental. The DVD is a movie I only wanted to watch with him once at most. Not a Marvel fan; I just wanted him to spend time with me. But he was clear that he didn’t think he’d like the movie because it is connected to Suicide Squad and Jared Leto ruined the movie. I agree, so why BUY it? Pirate it, FFS. Last is the pajamas. I don’t like sloths. They’re ugly and. Of course, it represents laziness. I fear being seen as lazy. So the pajamas he bought me? A fricking sloth. The fabric is soft, but the image hurts my feelings. He’s bitched about me not “keeping up with” the house, so I feel like this is a message

I think you are over thinking it and he was trying to be sweet

At least he got you something. It’s the thought that counts I think you’re thinking way too much into it and it’s possible that your son helped picked out the gifts for mom since the hedgehog reminds you of him.

Um are you sure your son didn’t pick them out. Like you sound kinda ungrateful. That’s a really cute gift set. You should be thankful they did all that for you.

You sound slightly ungrateful, you brought up a movie to watch with him even stating he didn’t think he would like it but is still willing to watch it with you, who doesn’t love pajamas? Comfiness. Sloths are cute and I’d be thankful either way.

If you feel some kind of way then that’s how you feel. I would ask your son if he picked them out. If he didn’t then speak to your husband. I don’t understand men who say well you’re not my mother… if the child/children are to young to shop for mom on their own dad should do it at least until the kids can do it on their own.

Gimme those pijamas! You don’t deserve them!

My husband gave me a $5 phone jail once for my birthday. I thought the same, it felt like he was telling me I was on my phone too much. Turned out after I was quietly sad and a little offended for days that my 6 year old had picked it out. It’s super possible your son picked out those pajamas considering it is mother’s day and the DVD, he most likely thought he was getting you something you wanted because he remembered you mentioning it to him. At least it shows he’s listening. Also ps a lot of people think sloths are adorable. Maybe you don’t, but maybe he does

You don’t sound ungrateful. Bad joke especially on Mother’s Day! I got you girl! Men there just dumb :woman_shrugging:t2:

You sound ungrateful. My spouse never remembers mother’s day and this year he got me baileys and a rose. I don’t drink because I’m diabetic but I loved the rose, regardless tho I thanked him and was so happy he went out and was thinking of me. You need to grow up, I feel bad for your hubby.

He usually doesnt buy you anything, this year he put in effort and got you several things and you still are unhappy…think about that. Maybe this is why he usually doesn’t bother. I kinda feel like you just want to be mad at him, maybe there are other issues with this relationship.

That’s a little far fetched dont you think? Why wouldn’t he just come out and call you lazy, you really think men connect two and two together?? He probably saw them, felt they were soft and got them. If you don’t like them don’t wear them but they are pj’s and it’s not like anyone will see them. Hell wear them when your on your period or when you feel like crap.

You have the right to feel how you feel but this is not the hill to die on. Odds are, your son picked them out. If you start a fight over this it’ll only end in hurt feelings all around. The movie sounds like it was meant to be thoughtful. You mentioned it and he remembered

My mother didnt even tell me happy mothers day. I didnt get anything for mothers day except some mini cinnamon rolls and a day of rest and I was happier than hell.
Be happy you got anything. If I were him, I’d take all the shit back and get you a plunger to pull that stick you lodged in your ass out.
Hubby, leave and find a lady who appreciates effort.

Dude doesn’t buy you anything? I can see why. All you did was b!tch about everything he got you. You’d be lucky if I gave you a high five. :rage:

If you expected nothing, why throw a fit when he does do something? Maybe that’s why he hasn’t done anything, out of fear of hearing complaining instead of being appreciated. My husband & kids could have either gotten me nothing, or a bag of dog :poop:, either way I would have loved it simply because… I love them. :roll_eyes:. If my husband reacted this way to gift or nice gesture, it would end up in the fire pit. I’m sure something brought this on, but, some moms don’t even get anything, let alone appreciated, let’s not take that small gesture for granted. Wooowzers, offended by a sloth, who would have thought :sloth:

Sloths are really “in” right now. So maybe he just thought they were cute, or maybe he let your son pick them out?

I was sick for mothers day and all I got was a breakfast made because I said I didn’t want to cook. And that itself was enough for me…

First off, who doesn’t like sloths!!! They are the most chill laid back cutest animal ever!!! Second off, at least your husband tried… maybe he got it wrong but he put thought into getting you something… ask yourself if this is a deal breaker, are you going to end your marriage over sloths pj’s?? If no, then laugh it off, wear them for him( maybe he thinks they are sexy) and roll with it…

What if your kid picked them out? I mean I would ask questions before getting mad. I however wouldn’t be offended if they are comfy and only meant for sleeping what’s the problem?
