Anything my husband buys me for any holiday I love. It could be a bag of bite size snickers and I’d appreciate it. It is the thought that matters. With our hectic lives he took the time to buy my favorite candy and card for Mother’s Day. Women put way to much into holidays.
Maybe the reason he doesn’t buy you anything is because you complain about what he gets to a bunch of strangers on the internet
just out of curiosity, did your son pick the pj’s out? that maybe why you got them…
You sound absolutely ungrateful. No wonder these men beat themselves up for not being good enough. Hell they put forth any effort and some of yall pick it apart and are still ungrateful.
Like you got something and you havent the past few years…and it isnt good enough when he does? Women like you give us all bad reps.
Some of these are what my kid says is “savage”
I’m an over-thinker myself, but I do think you put way too much thought into this. If your child was with him while hunting for gifts I say the majority of it is what your kid picked out. Especially, if he hasn’t bought you gifts in years. I’m assuming, if your kid is school aged I say the whole buying you a Mother’s Day gift was his idea to begin with. Be grateful for the gifts.
I have sloth pjs and I love them. If this is how you react when he buys you something, I see why he doesnt
Is this lady serious?
I think you are overthinking it honestly but if it bugs you that much say something
Sound like a cry baby to me
Fukk him! I sure hope u arent fukkin him anytime soon. What a pig. I think you are right and im so sorry for you. What a gem of an example for your little “hedgehog”.
You sound ungrateful I feel for your husband
I think you’re thinking too far into this…lol
Be thankful that you got something. Overthinking kills all efforts.
How about be grateful? OP sounds like a snobby stuck up *itch that will never be happy with ANYTHING he does for her…
Show a little gratitude… wear the jammies proudly…
He should run as far away as possible
I never get things on any holiday from hubby i gave up hoping
Honestly I think he bought you jammies thinking you would like them without thinking too much into the fact they have sloths…men do not put that much thought into it. I feel like if he wanted to call you lazy he would buy a broom or cleaning supplies
He tried and he listened to you.
maybe he likes sloths ? I like them, they seem to be everywhere as well as flamingo’s this year. I wouldn’t take it too personally but that’s just me. Sometimes people don’t know what to get someone. An example, My kid got me a box of Red Rose Tea and socks for mothers day, some folks may think that isn’t cool BUT I love to drink Red Rose tea so this was perfect and the socks had a couple funky designs, I’d use the tea and the socks so for me this was a good thing. I hope your days get better.
Maybe he wanted to recognize you and when he got to the pjs (I’m assuming they’re the cute sloth ones from Walmart?) maybe they’re the only design they had in your size? A lot of times we push what we fear/think of ourselves onto others and automatically assume that’s what they think. He could’ve also thought it was an adorable design, I mean… have you guys ever discussed what animals are or aren’t attractive? I mean hey, he thought of you without you asking! My husband walked out on our family this Mother’s Day and didn’t acknowledge it for me at all.
Its the thought that counts.
Maybe it’s just your insecurities… I think you are thinking a little too deep. Your feelings are valid, but maybe try asking in a nice way “aw, thank you. what made you get sloths?” I’m sorry you’re sad… I hope things get better.
So ungrateful. If he wanted to call you lazy he would have just said it. Who goes out of their way to buy pajamas to represent you being lazy. Pls re think this so you can realize how stupid this shit sounds.
Just ask him what you can do to meet his standards
Well shit ill take all your gifts happily send em here please I didn’t get gifts from dad or kids this year or any year.
How about be grateful that he thought of you and did something for you? Gratefulness is a beautiful attribute.
I work in a flower shop. Making beautiful floral arrangements for the holiday to send out to beautiful mother’s all over town… I get home and what’s in the counter…flowers, which is a sweet jesture, however, they were horrid looking…winter and very hidious compared to all the others flowers that were sent to other mother’s (sure they bought clearance at Walmart, and there’s a huge difference in flower shop flowers and WalMart)…I was extreamly sad about it…until my son ran up to me stood in front of those ugly wilted flowers and said…“ta-da, surprise mommy”… Suddenly those flowers turned beautiful more so than any others I’ve ever seen!!!
It’s ok to feel like your feeling, however, try to see the beauty in the thought. Maybe not the kind of thought YOU would out into gift buying, but…still a sweet thought. Most men don’t understand what we really want no matter how many times we explain. As far as the sloth pj’s…they are pj’s and suppose to be worn for you “Lazy” moments, so a sloth would be fitting…wear the PJs give them a chance…they may end up being your favorite
Did the kid pick out the PJ’s? Ive gotten some hedious things from my kiddos
Maybe you feel guilty and listen to your gut … An unappreciative female shouldn’t get nothing
My opinion
I would have hashtagged this post #ungratefuldouche because that’s what this makes you sound like …it was very thoughtful and sounds like it may have taken a bit of effort to come up with all these reasons to be offended … might wanna look into why you feel the need to take something kind and caring and turn it completely around. If your husband ends up seeing this, you did a GOOD thing, not all women are this disrespectful
Just be happy it was not a new broom or a sweeper, or anything like that.
Did your son pick them out?
Umm a lot of people are obsessed with sloth things and think they are cute
You might need to see someone about your paranoia and insecurity. You criticized everything he bought you, which is probably why he never buys you anything.
Yeah I too have gotten presents that I dont like. From many people .
Since when has it been okay for so many nasty women to bring down another women?!! You bitchy mums need a new attitude! This mum may be struggling with depression, anxiety or just be feeling really down and y’all probably just made it so much worse!! I overthink everything!! Literally everything to the point sometimes my partner will say ‘don’t over think such and such I got that or did that for this reason’ because he has learnt how to help me cope with my anxiety! To whoever this Mumma is, maybe he realised that you needed to feel appreciated and that’s why this year he got you a present. I know if I feel appreciated it motivates me so much more, to be a better mum, partner etc. Maybe watch the movie or ask if he’d like to join you even if he watches something on his phone. Just mention you want to be with him on the lounge or snuggling in bed to watch it! Sometimes our houses get messy, our kids are only little once and it’s nice to spend time with them whilst their young. X
I’m a man and yes we’re that clueless, at least I’m smart enough to realize I’m a idiot.
You sounds really really ungrateful
I love sloths. I guarantee he was trying to be sweet. Guys are dense, but he made the effort.
Um, have you thought that maybe your kid picked it out…even it was a message, who cares. Wear them and sit on your ass just to piss him off. Or wear them while cleaning to piss him off. Don’t let your thoughts ruin who you are because he has a big ego. Not to mention, he did show an effort he never did before. Sounds like you are reading too much into it.
Good grief. This sounds like someone who grew up as a princess.
They could be picks from the kids but most men you have to spell out what ya want cause they are idiots and damn she is feeling insecure about herself is that a crime. She is allowed to have an opinion and feelings. All of you are ugly on the inside judging and berating her instead of giving advice. I would hate to know anyone of you in person if this is how yall treat someone that is feeling emotions and self conscious about her relationship. Ugly the lot of you
Don’t be grumpy & bitchy. He did his best and got it wrong,…BUT the thought was there. Be grateful, and the gifts were things that you once had asked for. Your blimen blest that you have a husband at all…
Am I the only one that thinks your husband is…?
I love sloths so laxed out mmm understand the berating comments so do what I do and maybe what’s behind the sloths content grin shrug slyly grin think sure sure fkr🖕pft and try not to at lest show him it gets to you
Wow u complaining about this…I got a text of happy mothers day n that was it. Be grateful for what u have.
The post offends me more because suicide squad isn’t marvel it’s DC
Overthinkers always ruin everything…be grateful and enjoy your pjs in bed watching a movie… that’s it …
Most guys don’t speak passive aggressive though
Buy him a shirt that says micro penis and then you’ll be even
Men are stupid , he might not have realized but I would definitely mention it
And women wonder why men stop giving AF…
some of us didnt get anything
I got nothing so there is that
Yikes to all of this.
Men do NOTTTTT THINK that deep into gifts … he probably saw them and thought they were cute and you might like them! My hubby once bought me a pillow for Christmas I kissed his cute little lips and them smacked him with the pillow and laughed, men just buy stuff that is all PLEASE don’t think much into the PjS!!! Tell him you loved them and MOVE ON and BE GRATEFUL!!!
Sounds like they are from your son’s perspective… family movie, plush you said fits his personality, and cozy pjs for cuddling. If your son didn’t see them and pick them himself, your husband may have been trying to channel your son or pick something “kid like” to make it seem like it was from him…
My favorite mother’s Day gift second to my handmade card was the Shrek book my three year old picked out from the grocery store with his daddy.
1)you’re overthinking it
2)at least he got you SOMETHING
3)if you react this way every time he gets you things then I can see why you didnt get anything the last two years. This is pretty inconsiderate and rude. Ungrateful even. Also, men are NOT the best gift givers. Never read too much into a gift from a man what they think might be cute or girly may not be but at least he tried.
I’m so glad that my favorite chocolate candy and a very sweet card do it for me. I APPRECIATE being thought about. Not what’s inside the bag. Lord most of us never get a gift at all… and all I’ve seen in different mommy groups is women COMPLAINING that their man, child whoever went out of their way to do something for them because it wasn’t good enough. My god. The selfishness in the world these days is sickening.
At least he didnt get you flowers. My gosh, would that mean hes calling you a bumble bee or something
Definitely overthinking it. Yes sloths represent laziness but that’s why they’re popular on pajamas. I have sloth pajamas, doesn’t mean my mom bought them for me because she thinks I’m lazy. Honestly I see why he hasn’t gotten you anything the last 2 years, when he does gift you something you complain about every little part of it, very ungrateful.
The tone of spoiled and ungrateful in this post is LOUD.
My man could buy me a pizza and a bouquet of flowers and I’d be happy af. It’s not about the actual gift, sis.
Just be happy he made and effort and got you something. Some don’t even get acknowledged on Mother’s Day.
Jesus, I feel like I know why he dont bother with getting you gifts:joy:
Girl! You wear those pajamas and wear them all day! Get you some bon bons and a good book and some snacks you don’t plan on sharing! Let him come looking for you in your fancy pjs. He’ll think twice if that was what he was trying to imply.
Cut him some slack and be happy he actually bought gifts —- I don’t think he thought that deep about the sloth on the PJ set most men don’t that’s more a bitchy girl thing to do —-
Be honest and tell him your feelings about it maybe??
I love sloths but that’s simply because when I was on bed rest I’m the hospital about to give birth, my husband bought my a stuffed TY sloth for comfort in the hospital and they just kinda stuck to me and used it for size reference with our premie💕
You are reading wayyy too far into this. Sloths are in right now, they are on everything. I just hope you didn’t say these things to him otherwise he really isn’t going to get you anything for Mother’s Day ever again if he feels like you are ungrateful.
Maybe just ask why he picked sloths maybe there’s a cute reason behind it. Like the movie maybe he just remembered you mentioned it and thought you would like that he remembered.
Stop overthinking things…just addept it as a gift and yues be thankful he thought of you…if your housekeeping bugs him then keep a better house…l
My ex never got me Mother’s day gifts…i wasn’t his mother. I was the mother to our 2 children. There is a reason he is my ex.
Sloths are a very popular animal right now. I have 2 friends obsessed with everything sloth right now.
Be thankful because my husband has forgot mothers day and my birthday 3 years in a row now so I haven’t gotten a gift from him except only on Christmas
Honestly it sounded like he tried. It seems like there may be some disconnect which would make it hard for gift buying which is already hard for guys. It seems like an olive branch to me; I would take it and make it known to him you’re grateful for the thought
Wow😳 sloths don’t represent laziness… it’s peace and silence. It’s appreciating the little things. Not laziness. He remembered something you mentioned and bought it. Not everyone is the best at giving gifts. Take the love language test with him. It just seems like a very hypersensitive reaction to an innocent CARING gift
I bought my 8 month old daughter a sloth and it hasnt nothing to do with laziness. I just thought it was cute. I csloths. Mr. slothy. Maybe he thought they were cute and that you would look cute in them. Don’t overthink it and don’t be ungrateful. Hopefully you said thank you at least. It’s the thought that counts.
You’re thinking way too much into it. Even being a woman, I don’t feel like I’d be creative enough to gift someone something with an insulting subliminal message I think he was trying to do something different/creative and that’s what he got. He tried
Our b/g twins are 3 and just now old enough to kinda understand Mother’s Day so my boyfriend let them pick out my gifts all by themselves. I got slime and a hairbrush and you know what? I cried. Not because I’m shallow and thought they were shitty gifts. I cried because I thought it was the cutest thing ever and it was the very first time they gifted me something on their own. I will forever remember that.
I think you’re over thinking the gift. He probably thought they looked nice and bought them for you as a present. Men don’t usually do passive aggressive things like that it’s usually straight up
Maybe your son picked out the pajamas? Kids like sloths…and I’m sure your husband didn’t think “she’s lazy so let me go hunt down sloth pajamas to be passive aggressive about it” Girl, No…men hate shopping.
Maybe that movie reminded him of a time when you wanted to spend time with him and things were good…Why not try be be positive and appreciative?
I would be happy with effort. He did something for you weather they were good choices or not. My husband isn’t a gift giver so I try not get my hopes in to not be disappointed. I would be happy with any sort of effort.
My partner gave my bath soak pamper pack & we don’t even have a bath so… men definitely don’t overthink gifts. Be grateful you were given things, nothing is expected. At least he tried.
Bless your heart your more paranoid than me or my daughter…just accept it as a man trying to give you a gift and not the best at it… but in end its thought that counts.
I think you’re resentful for how he’s been treating you in the past and now your mind is automatically seeking out reasons to be upset even though he did a thoughtful thing. Have a conversation with him without being judgmental and jumping to conclusions. We all can go through our bouts in marriage where we are grumpy and take it out on our spouses and then feel guilty about it later on. Have the conversation. Ask your questions and address your hurt feelings with him.
Guys aren’t always the best gift givers lol i always get something random and outlandish … but they try and it’s the thought and effort that counts!
- You’re overthinking
2 thought that counts
And 3 if this is how you react every time you get a present I can see why he doesn’t do stuff for you. To me personally your response is the problem and rude.
Why are so many women with men who put in LITERALLY no effort. I would never be with someone who has no courtesy to know what I even like or get me a gift on a holiday. Try talking to him? But seems like he’s going to treat you exactly how you let him
Im sure he just thought the pjs were cute and it might have been a suggestion from a store clerk because they are pretty popular now. I’m sorry it’s stirring up so much anxiety though, I understand and your feeling are valid. You might want to just ask him how he decided on them and go from there
I honestly feel like guys don’t go that deep when it comes to buying gifts . He prob seen the sloth pjs and thought “that’s probably what woman like since it’s in the woman’s section”
I would have loved those just cause I think sloths are cute. And my husband doesn’t know that. I personally think you’re overthinking it.
You’re wayyy overthinking it. It seems like it might be an insecurity issue you have with yourself to be honest. It sounds like the gift was meant to be from your son, but your husband wanted you to know that he does listen to you and picked a movie he knew you had mentioned watching together. I would appreciate the gift for what it is, snuggle up with your boys in pjs, and watch the movie together.
He’s probably just a horrible gift giver. Honestly, I am horrible at gift giving most of the time. But if someone thinks of you, feel blessed. If you feel he’s sending you a message… then either he isn’t, and that thinking is unhealthy, or he is, and that’s unhealthy.
You are thinking waaaay too far into it. Men a simple…he would have grabbed the first things he saw
Give him a big kiss and a hug. He thought of you throughout the day. Put the pj’s on, and have some fun. You seem to be a little negative of certain things so stop. Go have some fun
Uh I love sloths and think their cute as hell does that mean I’m lazy lol I would honestly just be grateful he made an effort.
If the shoe fits better wear the bitch. Geez … So ungrateful… My husband passed away last year at the age of 28, im 24 with 3 kids… this was my first mothers day without him id give anything to have gotten a snickers candy bar from him let alone that stuff. Be greatful yours is alive and put in effort.
It really depends on who your boyfriend/husband is you know him better than any of us you know how he thinks and what he acts like dont listen to anyone on here honestly what you think matters most because you live with him we dont know you guys if you actually think he is trying to tell you your lazy maybe talk to him about it and see what he actually thinks
First…Suicide Squad is DC, not Marvel.
But I do think you may be reading too much into it. If it concerns you that much, confront him about it.
Ehh honestly feel you’re being unappreciative. He went out of his way to surprise you, probably did not think that deep into it. He probably just seen the PJs and thought you’d like them. I didn’t really need/want what my man got me for mother’s day (ponytails, makeup that didn’t match my skin color and a pillow that my daughters have already claimed) but I was so excited and thanked him dearly. It’s the thought that counts
I think you should ask him his rationale. Don’t assume one way or other. If it is what you suspect, it will encourage him to actually communicate like an adult. If it’s innocent, it will hopefully make you feel better and that he’s just not a great gift-giver
I definitely think you’re over thinking it. Like, you seem really ungrateful that he got you something. And who knows, maybe he let your son pick out the pajama pants for you. Some guys just aren’t the best when it comes to gift giving.
