I’d cut him a little slack, men aren’t naturally as great at gifts as we are. The ones that are are like unicorns I swear. His behavior and communication could be improved on. That’s communication style doesn’t go far 🫤
I’d be annoyed about the toothbrush but the necklace and mug seem sweet I love getting stuff having to do with my kids we have 4
Lol some people are horrible gift givers.. my brother is like that.. I'm legit the easiest person to buy for but he will get me the weirdest things.. my sister says the same.. we kind of make a game of trying to figure out his logic.. For example: I hate having my feet touched in any way.. like I will cut my nails and it's the worst thing I could do... and he decided to get me a full foot spa with cream and all...
@Jacqueline yeah I think I need to lol he tried just wish he didn’t buy me a damn toothbrush that I said I hate lmao. He said he will return it and I can buy something I like but he didn’t say it in a nice way so idk what to do. I feel like if I acted fake and didn’t say anything then I would have no choice but to use the damn toothbrush everyday, so I had to say something lol
@Tashina yes they were quite sweet, I would have liked them for Mother’s Day though not on my birthday. And it’s the fact that I don’t even wear silver jewellery because it doesn’t suit my skin tone, I wear gold tones. I told him this ages ago after he brought me a silver necklace and he still went and brought a silver one again FFFSSSS it’s like he doesn’t even listen ????
As for the toothbrush, I would be annoyed too, especially if I had expressed not being a fan of them. I would ask him for the receipt so you can return and I’d get yourself something you’d like. For the necklace, I expressed to my husband things like this in the past and he’s tried but missed the mark of exactly what I was looking for. I know it’s helped me if I provide a link or a picture of exactly what I want. This happened with an initial necklace I wanted. I already had an expensive one I bought when I was working with his and I’s initials and wanted our daughters added on after she was born. He did find the right place but couldn’t find where to only pay for the initial and not a whole new necklace. He ended up buying a different necklace so now I have two 🫠 I’ve got other jewelry too that isn’t my style, but bless his heart. It sounds like your husband tried with your other gifts, even if they didn’t hit the mark.
