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

Just be happy you got something. You are definitely looking to far into it

That’s a whoooole bunch of negative projecting you’re doing there.

There’s nothing that will drive a wedge faster than someone making an uncharacteristic effort to change, and it being treated with suspicion and assumptions of passive aggressively rude intentions. Maybe you’re right, in which case he’s a dick. But if you’re wrong and it was all well intentioned? Guess who the dick is?

Since we can never truly know each other’s intentions unless they are expressed, I always default to best case scenario. It’s a win win, because if they meant well, they see it taken well and a connection is created. If they didn’t, seeing you “miss the hint” and embrace it will totally irritate them and foil their plan.

Ps, I have those sloth jammies and they are warm and comfy. They have hand warmers for crying out loud. EMBRACE THE SLOTH JAMMIES

Hmm if the shoe fits…

Wow no thanks or nothing. No appreciation. Now I guess I know why guys don’t try. Women like M us gets left in the red. They’re scared to try. Sheesh. Just wowwww

You’re reading way too much into it

Sounds like a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation coming from you.

I can’t get past you thinking that Suicide Squad is Marvel…

Men are oblivious to detail, he probably didn’t even notice they were sloths :sloth::woman_shrugging:t2::sweat_smile:

Did you ever stop and think that maybe your child picked out the pajamas because he liked them?

I think he tried . He didn’t hit the mark but I think he has tried to make a effort

Unpopular opinion apparently, I agree with you. You know him better than anyone else here. If you feel the PJs are a dig because you haven’t kept up with the house work then you’re probably right. The movie also would strike me as odd considering you know how he feels about it and you agreed with him.

But here’s the thing, 1.) Your worth shouldn’t be measured in how clean you keep that house. Are his arms broken? 2.) You’re allowed to feel how you feel and not be considered ungrateful. 3.) I’m not sure how the majority of women here think “men” can’t be spiteful or put thought into a demeaning gift :face_with_monocle::woman_shrugging:.

If he hasn’t done anything for you for years and then does this, a conversation should be had. You’re the mother of his kid and that should mean something. Your son is learning from his example, he’s learning not only how to treat women but also how to treat his future kids mother.

I personally would sit him down and talk to him about this and everything else. Clearly something within your relationship needs to be addressed.

You sound like a psychopath. Maybe he stopped getting you stuff because you don’t appreciate it.

Is your husband a detailed oriented person? If yes, he probably means it. But if not, then by all means, he has no intention to hurt you. Men are just lame on getting their wife a gift but The movie he bought is already considered a thoughtful act!
My husband told me why does he need to give me a gift on mother’s day? is it my birthday yet?! But then again, my birthday had passed, i got nothing from him. :joy:

You’re reading into it way too much. Be greatful for the gift

Alam mo naman pala eh :joy:

Maybe you feel lazy. Get off your ass

The son probably picked it out :woman_shrugging:t2:

sloths are so trendy right now ! I’ll bet that’s why

Somebody’s insecure! You are overthinking it and you just say thank you and move on with your life.

Sounds incredibly ungrateful…

Why do so many women accept being treated like abuse cooks cleaners and sex workers? Seriously,

Why am I mad at “sloths are ugly”… they actually are super freakin cute!

Talk about ungrateful! I have 2 grown sons who managed to text me at 11PM Sunday night. I also have an 8year old who woke me up with a handmade card, asked to spend the day watching movies with me, & “cooked” me this dinner. Her thoughtfulness made my day & made me feel loved & appreciated. I’m sure that’s how your husband meant it to be for you, but I guess bitching is easier than appreciating it.

So, I can think of all kinds of things to get him for Fathers Day. Pig :pig: pajamas or :sauropod: pajamas because he’s an old fossil. How about some baby wipes because he’s acting like a butt wipe and diaper rash cream to go with it for him being so butt hurt about you not doing your chores. I’ll stop but there’s many more.

Men can be pricks sometimes. They are oblivious to what they cause. It’s like a special gift. I bet, the plush was picked out by your child and all those things were last minute. I love pajamas personally. The more comfortable they are, the better. Sloths, the animal, might be a stretch on the comparison. Ignorance i believe.

I think you sound really ungrateful. One year my husband got me a wooden brush, not because my hair is messy, but because its made of sandalwood and he knows i like the smell.
Maybe he just saw comfy pajamas and thought they were the cutest out of the bunch. Men are weird.

Ypu went from not expecting anything to complaining about everything you got… :thinking: since you asked, to me personally you sound ungrateful and like you look for reasons to complain. Good grief. Grow up.

Give some grace to both of y’all, momma. He put forth an independent effort apparently for the first time in a while… And sloths are kinda all the rage so I highly doubt it was a slight toward you… In which respect giving yourself grace in that area may calm your view on that portion of the gift. If you are still troubled over it in a few days maybe bring it up gently as not to discourage future efforts and guide toward more successful efforts.

Ma’am no men are just bad with gifts sometimes. He’s not calling u lazy I doubt he even knows what sloths do lol ur overthinking. I’m guessing ur kid picked them out. It’s mother’s day so take it like ur kid picked out all of it.

I’d put them motherfuckers on and lounge around all day. Then start calling them my “lazy pants”. Tell em, “If you see me wearing these pants, don’t expect shiiiit from me today!”. But maybe your son picked them out because they’re cute :woman_shrugging:t3:. My kids love sloths and would probably pick them

Instead of questioning his meaning behind these gifts try being grateful for the effort he put into buying you anything!!! This makes you sound ungrateful

Sounds like they tried. But please for the love of anything on Father’s Day buy him pj pants with donkeys all over them bc he’s a bit of an ass.

I think your reading into it. When I first met my husband I used to have my feelings hurt because he didn’t buy me gifts for Christmas Mother’s Day or birthdays I was used to my ex being a big holiday shopper. I soon realized this man did for me all year round. I always had oil changes, gas in my car, I broke things and he’d fix it, he’d grab me meds on the way home if he knew I was sick that day. My point is men think differently then I do

Just be grateful you have a husband to give you gifts mine passed away 2 years ago Mother’s day. It’s the thought that counts not what’s given

First of all, if the movie is related to suicide squad it has nothing tondo with marvel, it’s DC. Secondly, stop overthinking. You don’t even know if your son picked it out. Chill.

My oldest refused to eat breakfast with us and the other 3 were assholes all day. Be thankful you got anything, because one day you will look up and it will be over

Suicide squad is DC and marvel is marvel two different comic book series and characters that don’t go with each other. Now on to your feelings maybe you are projecting laziness on to yourself. And maybe he doesn’t get you gifts because you literally just complained about 80% of the gift you did get. Pick a struggle sis.

My husband SUCKS at giving gifts. I always smile, thank him and accept it, because it’s rare he buys me anything. So it’s the thought that counts.

Don’t read into it. See what happens? Without knowing the full story and intimate details of your everyday relationship, it’s difficult for Facebook strangers to give an accurate analysis.

Maybe your daughter picked out the PJs?

There are many perspectives to consider, but it appears to be a choice to “think” there is an underpinned message behind gifts.

Most people think sloths are cute. You don’t normally get a gift at all, why not just be happy with what you got? maybe your child picked them out. You sound like a drama Queen.

Listen I get it. We see Instagram and think that every man should be as fancy as these post but that’s not real life right? They do that specifically for the post. My husband and daughter got me a new car but! And a big but! I have just got in an accident a few weeks ago and needed a new one. So it was a practical gift. But last year I got a necklace and the year before that a ring (we’ve only been married two years also not her father) before that still good gifts but my daughter was young and drew a lot of cards and stuff it was just nice waking up knowing someone thought of me and remembered.

I thing you’re issues are with yourself. And you sound very ungrateful tbh.

Alot of women got nothing or don’t even have mom’s to celebrate with.

Listen, you have a right to be upset, but in the long run of things, if he has told you you’re not keeping up with the house, he’s not gonna revert back to pajamas as a passive agressive way to tell you. He would just tell you again. Also, men were raised in our generation to think any sign of affection is good enough. So if you want more, if you want better, DEMAND IT. make it a requirement. Or stop doing the little things like his birthday or father’s day. But my guess is, if you got him a movie he’d mentioned once, a pair of warm donkey pajamas, and a favor, he’d be more grateful than this.

You’re thinking waaaaayyyyy too much into this. Sloths are cute. I’d be ecstatic over sloth pajamas. Also, sloths are appropriate animals to be on PJ’S. He did something sweet and you’re looking for trouble. Trying to turn a thoughtful gesture into something nefarious.

I think if you just read this to your husband he will probably chuckle and tell you that you read way too much into this… my husband has never been a romantic he’s practical if I mentioned I needed blender or a vacuum around Mother’s Day that’s what I’d get…if I needed PJs and my kids were with him he’d let them pick a ridiculous looking set :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::woman_shrugging:t2:. My father in law remembers weird things about me like one time I mentioned my fave chocolate and every time I see him he has it for me… men are weird

Okay I see both sides, men tend to not really think about you other than basic stuff, soft Panama’s probably thought the pattern wouldn’t matter too much. You mentioned the movie so he at least remembered something you said. I love stuffies! He probably just thought it would be the thought that counted. Also your husband may have picked those because they were to be from your child. This may sound mean, but maybe the reason he doesn’t buy you gifts is because of reactions like this? I got candy I don’t like and flowers that I know I’ll never be able to keep alive (Orchids are the hardest dang house plant) and the card wasn’t as sentimental as I would hope for, but you know what I did when those kids and my husband gave me my gifts with ear to ear grins? I acted like they were the greatest gifts I have ever received, and I meant every positive word spoken about them because they took the time to get me something. Anything. They were excited to get something for me, I don’t get much in this life because I’m too busy making sure their needs are met. They wanted to get me something as a sign on their love and appreciation. While it might not be what I would choose for myself it beats getting nothing and their excitement was the most precious gift of all.

Maybe your kid picked out the pj’s. He saw the movie and remembered you mentioned it once. Maybe it came from the 5 dollar bin at Walmart. Who cares he knew you mentioned it once. Sometimes moving forward means letting go of the past negative feelings. Tell him instead how much you appreciated the effort he made and tell him you loved the gift. One day he won’t be there to tell that 2. My dad died 5 years ago or so and my mom misses him everyday. When they first got married he didnt see why he would get her anything for mother’s day since she wasn’t his mother. Let’s face it, men have a learning curve.

Youre stretching…I think you’re just ungrateful and over analyze everything. He probably was thinking you would think they were cute. Stop trying to start arguments with him and be happy he thought of you.

Maybe it’s your subconscious knowing you are slacking off and your husband probably grabbed tge first set of pjs he put his hands on. Stop projecting onto your husband. If you think it don’t blame him for thinking it too

If my partner acted this way after I got him something I would never buy him anything again just saying

Be THANKFUL that he and your child wanted to do something for you. Don’t try to read anything into the choices that he gave you. He is a MAN. As such, men are pretty straightforward. There is no hidden agenda or meaning intended unless YOU make it one.

Be grateful for what you did receive. Theres mamas out here (me included) that would love to have at least been recognized. My bf of 5 years hadnt even said happy mothers day to me, let alone have any type of gifts for me
…all I wanted was some hand made cards from my 3 kiddos…nothing

Girl, relax. Sloths don’t represent laziness, they represent slowness so, when reaching, reach the right way.

Be grateful you got something.

Men are stupid a don’t think. I got a weightlifting belt one year for Valentine’s Day. Been together 43 years. Let it go boys are stupid

This seems like a stretch, to me it seems like he really tried making it special. You sound really ungrateful tbh.

Sounds more like a guilty conscience. Sloths aren’t lazy, they’re slow. Maybe your child picked them out for you

Sloths are DEFINITELY trending! I freaking love sloths and really need to know where he got the jammies!

Don’t overthink it honey…he wouldn’t spend money to give you a message.

Sounds like you’re reading too much into it or you feel guilty about not keeping the house clean.

You lookin too far into it! Sloths are just cute

I doubt there was any message, men are stupid when it comes to gifts.

If a person really knew about sloths they would know that their not really lazy it’s their survival mechanism

Maybe your son picked them out even

Take the High road and tell him thank you and You appreciate his thoughtfulness. Don’t act like it bothers you,

Sloths are cool and trending because there are only very little left…

Maybe the son picked out the pajamas and other stuff?
