I’m sorry but your attitude is what needs some work. You’re over thinking and under appreciating. Men don’t think that hard to buy sloth pajamas to make you feel guilty. They think more along the lines of “these are cute she’ll like them”. And they were probably closest to the entrance of whatever store he went into.

You’re son probably picked them out cause he saw a cute animal on them and thought you’d like them. I don’t think sloths = lazy. But that’s just me

So you complain when he doesn’t get you gifts and you complain when he does? 
This is why people always say “women don’t know what they want” and don’t take us seriously. I doubt he made the connection that sloths are lazy, men don’t put that much thought into stuff. Lol. Also? If you mentioned that you wanted to watch the movie even once, he took you seriously. He’s not going to read your mind and know you didn’t actually want to watch it when you said you did. You just sound ungrateful tbh. You also mentioned that you don’t like it when he tells you to clean the house, but then said he doesn’t cook “without being told to.” You’re doing the same thing to him that you don’t like being done to you.

My hubby brings my boys to buy cards on Mother’s Day- in the late afternoon. Otherwise he’s amazing! Kind, loving, great husband, great father, great provider- gets the most amazing cards! I used to get mad, but if this is his worst fault- I’m still a lucky woman!! Let it go!! He meant nothing with the sloth because it’s on everything right now! He took your son to buy a gift- take the win!

Be thankful you recieved a gift…be thankful he made it possible for your SON to give you a gift…be thankful he remembered the movie even if it was not his cup of tea…be thankful he knew your size in anything you might wear and then realize sloths have been “in” for awhile! Try to stop being judgmental and start being appreciative.
I hope for his and your sons sake you expressed some appreciation and didn’t react like you’ve expressed on here.

Hmmm I think you should reevaluate your expectations. Sounds like your son picked out the gifts. Some moms don’t get anything for Mother’s Day. Or maybe just flowers. If you got flowers would you have been happy? Do you require a Diamond? It’s just a day. As a mother I just want to spend it with my moms and with my kids. I actually end up cooking lunch or brunch for my moms. I think they went out of their way to think of you and they should be appreciated.

First off, do you know if your kid picked out those sloth pj’s? If you say something and your kid picked those you might break their little heart. Second off sloths are trendy and on everything right now, men do not over analyze things like that. Third you are literally complaining that he bought you a movie you mentioned you wanted to see and he didn’t, so like it’s a problem he went out of his way to remember something you said you wanted and got it for you even though he wasn’t that interested? You sure your secure enough to be in a relationship even, because it sounds like that man tried and YOU are the problem being selfish that his efforts aren’t good enough but making sure to throw in it wasnt wasn’t good enough when the effort wasn’t there.
Send him my way, sounds like a great guy and I would happily wear some cozy sloth pj’s

I really think you are thinking way too much into this. Your son very likely had input into all of the gifts. They all scream relaxation, and I’m sure your son wanted you to feel that. Sloths are in. They’re on a lot of things. Your son probably felt them, liked how they felt, liked that there were animals on them, and picked them for you. The movie was a help from dad, but I’ll bet your son wanted to get you something to watch on tv while you relax. Just enjoy the gifts!
If I want something specific I ask for it. We typically talk about holidays like birthdays, mother’s day etc to see if we want to spend the money or able to spend the money before buying each other gifts. It works bc we talk about it. He is not a guy who would be able to read my mind, so I don’t ask him too!

Sweetheart I think you need to look into why you’re offended… You seem a little overwhelmed and anxious. I understand that. I was looking for pjs for my mom and literally found 2 with what I was looking for… Both in colors I know she’s not keen on but she needed button up so I got them. Sloths are huge now and I don’t think they represent lazy… They represent sleep so makes sense for pjs.
Mother’s day in our home was an extra special one… Almost lost my mom 2 weeks ago and she’s still recovering. My 7 and 11 year old made us brunch and my 11 year old spent an hour teaching my mom how to solve a rubix cube. We didn’t do ott gifts for her because funds were tight but we all celebrated together and it was a wonderful mother’s day!
Damned if you do - damned if you don’t. Men do not analyze like this. He obviously included your son in on this present, maybe your 7 year old thought sloths were cool. My ex never bought me a Mother’s Day gift in the 30’years we were together. His excuse - I wasn’t his mother. Stop looking for excuses to be mad and appreciate the effort and thought behind it.

How tf do sloths represent laziness? You’re being silly. I love sloths. Have 2 sloth stuffies and my husband bought me sloth pjs because I like sloths and I’m FAR from lazy. I think you may need to dig deeper into your feelings on why this triggered your fear of him seeing you as lazy. He probably thought you would think they were cute not get all defensive. This is a situation where hes damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t. Poor guy.

For few years he gave you nothing which obviously didn’t go well with you and now when he did gift you something you found more reasons to complain instead of finding one reason to like and appreciate this gift and your man!! The dvd is a sweet gesture, he probably bought it thinking you like that movie (you did ask him to watch it with you but he was honest to say he’s not into movies) sloths can represent cute or lazy it’s what you make of it… he didn’t have to buy you anything this year but he did, stop looking for reasons to fault him and his choices and appreciate the effort he made just to see you happy!

Be thankful he thought of you! Men do not think like that. He probably felt bad for not doing much if anything at all. So he decided to try & be thoughtful. Yet instead of you being grateful & appreciative, you pick apart every aspect like its a sign he doesnt love you or doesnt care or that its a subtle way of putting you down!!! If you’ve mentioned the movie, thats your own fault but he probably only got it bc he remembered hearing you mention it. His thought was probably, these look comfy & snug & feel so soft. This is a movie she asked to see or had mentioned & than let your son pick something. I mean seriously? What is an acceptable print on a piece of clothing? Would a teddy bear be him calling you fluffy or a hippo calling you fat or hearts meaning your heartless??? Honestly, it feels you are reaching for a reason to be upset. Maybe you are not happy within your marriage so you look for anything to be a reason something is wrong or off. I donno, if it were me, id love it all bc it meant my man thought of me

So I’m married 15 years this week and I’ll tell ya what works for me is making a shared Amazon wish list, buying things for myself on holidays (I don’t open the packages, he opens and wraps them) and lastly, waiting a day or two then calmly letting him know that something he said or did made me feel a certain way. Doing this… I get what I really want and would use and I’m so much calmer when I bring it up that I give myself and him the chance to tell me/actually listen to his thought process and what he actually meant.

There is no way a man went that deep into a thought process. He probably thought they were soft and you would like them because they had animals. Or maybe your son picked them out? I read your post to my husband and he was like uh no you women get way to intricate with this stuff

I think you are being overly sensitive. Pajamas are for sleeping hence a sloth. (Sloth and lama are popular things right now) Maybe your child helped him pick them out? You where remembered and thought of but complain about every aspect of your husbands attempt. Poor man is damned if he dose and damned if he doesn’t! He even got something you mentioned wanting to see and you found a way to find an issue with it. At least he tried but with your attitude if I was him I wouldn’t be too quick to try again next year if this was your reaction to the attempt.
Wow! Talk about ungrateful! Least he remembered and made the effort!
If you really don’t like them, tell him instead of bitching behind his back, maybe say they dont fit right so could you swap them?

You sound super ungrateful. I would give anything to have that much thought go into a gift. Also, don’t take your husband for granted, cause they need constant gratitude and encouragement and of course, love. Or trust me, they will go looking for it.
I do not know your husband, but is it possible he was just trying? Men do not tend to overthink things like us women. My husband bought me lovely soft pjs with plants. Does he think I am a plant??? No he knew i would love the softness.
Maybe your son picked them out. He would have no idea what the image means to you. All of the gifts sounds like a thoughtful child picked them out instead of a grown man.
He never got you anything before and now you have a 7 year old who is likely in school in some form or fashion and old enough to understand there is a special day for mom. Seems like your 7 year old probably said, ‘let’s get mom something for Mother’s Day’. I can’t stand sponge bob but guess what I got one year - sponge bob lounge pants. I wore them often. Still have them. Nobody was trying to tell me I’m square. Just what they liked and was popular at the time. Is your son into marvel movies? I’m guessing he liked the hedge hog.
If there is an issue between you and your husband, handle it, but I wouldn’t use these gifts as the spring board for them. It’s more likely your son had more to do with the choices than your husband and your complaining about them and being pissy will really hurt his feelings.
I like sloths I myself would probably laugh at the pajamas and wear them around the house. They are probably pretty cute. Sorry it’s not what you had expected or hoped for
I’m thinking maybe your husband took your son to the store or shooed online & he (your son) picked out the hedgehog & pjs my kids pick some off the wall stuff for me & I still love it

Did your 7 year old son pick the pjs out? Sloths are warm and fuzzy and relaxed animals not lazy at all. It sounds like the way you are feeling is hormones talking. Relax be happy and give don’t blame others for feeling bad about yourself and how you think others think of you. I think your son picked all that stuff out for you mom not your husband.
Ok I’m going to admit I’m totally bias because they are one of my favorite animals BUT sloths are not lazy. They CONSTANTLY are out and about.
He honestly probably didn’t think twice about what was on the pjs. But of you are hurt, or feel like he is being passive aggressive about it tell him you had your feeling s hurt
Honestly, most men do not think like that. Let it go. Be glad he remembered to get you something.

Sloths are very popular. My kids are into them and there are lots of stuff with them on them right now. I seriously doubt a guy who does not have a mean spirit (you know if he does and then I bet it wouldn’t be a hidden message) would buy your those as a hidden message. Men don’t think like that as mentioned above. My husband is terrible at buying gifts. They just don’t get it. I would take it as, he tried, missed the mark, but tried.

I really don’t think he is sending you a message. Honestly, from what it sounds like, he is thinking of things that you might like or things that look comfortable even. I would ask him straight out if he had another motive behind the pjs. Also, some men will buy women gifts that they themselves might think are comfy to them. My husband used to buy me those soap/body spray gift sets that smelled awful. I really disliked those and just told him not to buy them anymore. But he just didn’t know. Don’t feel bad. My mom used to get things like a lava lamp or one of those plasma balls that serve no purpose other than HE liked it. Lol that’s men for ya!
Two words… FATHER’S DAY. Your time to get even, girl! Just kidding (kinda). Seriously, Mother’s Day is almost always a disappointment for most of us. Try being direct with him and ask why he chose those gifts (without getting emotional, if at all possible). Good luck!

Sloths are definitely popular. Men definitely don’t think the way we do in getting gifts. Get him a pair of sloth pajamas( father’s day is coming up) along with the rest of your family. Most likely, your kid probably picked out the stuff, that is usually how it works. Just be happy and grateful you got anything because some moms don’t get anything.

Listen your way overthinking this. Let me help you cause I’m not very good at being all lovey on holidays either. Anyways.

It sounds to me like the dude really tried and this was probably hard for him. If you dog him he’s gonna be like well that was even worse then if I don’t get nothing and he will go back to getting you nothing. I might be wrong but I think your completely overreacting and should be appreciative. Just my thoughts and I could be completely wrong

Most of the time Bill gives me money and tells me to go buy what I want. This year he had a walk in shower put in, I have a real bad knee and getting in and out of the bathtub was just getting to be hard for me. I was shocked to say the least-first off, I’m not the mother to his daughter and secondly because he actually did something without me asking him to. And men SUCK real bad at buying gifts!!
No offense, but all I read was a bunch of complaining and no appreciation for the effort. The sooner you realize that men have different brains than women, the better off you’re going to be. Good luck.
