Me:My mom called and told me I should have given it to her. I dont know seriously a 40 Chanel and $1.99 Walgreens wala nail polish, no one can tell the difference.

You might find this interesting – I work on a software product that manages returns for some very famous retailers… we were swamped with return traffic the day after Xmas… does it help (your husband) to know you have so much company?

Me:Ha!Good to know

oh well! he tried! and you got what you wanted eventually! fair enough!

you know i think most self help books are crap, but one thing i learnt from men ar from mars kinda crap is that men are NOT intutive not great listeners!

its best to just ask for what you want!

M has improved tremendously! ofcos he sticks to clothes and i must admit tho initially i freak out seeing stuff he has bought, eventually it does look darn good!

perfume and make uo shake up, he knows he shouldnt bother with!

happy new year lady! and the family!

cheers!

Me:I know! I told him cash/gift card and time alone to do something I want..He is now insisting he will NEVER BUY ME ANYTHING.

Criticising a gift is done only when I’m in a really nasty mood.

Me:Hmmm..Next time maybe

Me:Thanks! Its is really tough to get a picture of all 4 of them.

By the way, if you still haven’t gotten your boots, let’s go shopping this weekend if you can get away in the evening. I need boots too.

Me:Arghh sounds like some men need to take lessons. We have to teach our boys to be better gift givers.:)

So mum said u r k*** and that you should always “ahbishake” what your husband gives you..

So I quoted examples of when dad gave her things and what she did wif it.

So like mother like daughter.

So after reading this post dad was reading BB and AB post.
And he asked mum “This is the pasir ris house?
and mum said “He gave her lipstick in the pasir ris house house”??

Lol….
Well is more funny if u hear how she says it.

P/S:Mum says the gifts are nice.

Me:Yes tell her it is nice but doesnt suit my skin tone. She would said, keep it for then I know. And she is confused lah..

This is the problem with ‘surprise’ gifts. He shoulda done his homework better. Although it *definitely* counts that he spent the time and effort shopping for beloved you!

Me:Yup all is okay now!

And this is why you should date/marry a woman.

Me:rofl

Me:I am>..I know!

But it’s true that after 13 yrs he should have known better. Though people are known to change over time so maybe he was just checking you out.
I think with mine we’re starting to come to some understanding. If I really want something, I talk about it from time to time. Since he wouldn’t have the time to go look for it, he’ll just tell me to go get it myself. It’s not the same as me just going ahead to buy me something w/o 1st letting him know. That’s my gift to me. And I don’t like his surprises, we do not have the same taste and should just live with that. I hope that I’ve made that clear enough (e.g. keep buying him things he doesn’t like to get the point across).

Me:I was talking about the Wii and Wii Fit and he refused to take that hint. What can I do?

For x’mas as usual he didn’t buy me anything. But I kept insisting it’s OK with me, I don’t really mind that as I have more fun buying gifts for others. Then the next day, he announced to his family that I could go ahead and buy myself a diamond and spend as much as I want. That’s so sweet, don’t you think so?

Me:I saw your emerald ring..Thats reallly pretty. And you get to buy another one!
