Ok, so this needs asked because frankly I'm here beginning to think there's something wrong with me.
When someone gets you a present, boyfriend, husband, friend or family, and you didn't particularly want it, what is your first response?
I got my wife a surprise gift, she opened it and her first response was "I don't want this.." All afternoon, all she's done is bitch about the thing I bought her and not once has even bothered to utter the words "Thank You".
All afternoon, I've been made to feel like some kind of piece of **** because I thought of her and bought her this gift that now I'm ready just to take outside and throw in the garbage.
I don't know.. Maybe it IS me.. But there have been plenty of times I get gifts that I didn't particularly want, yet I always... ALWAYS said Thank You and made it a point to express how appreciative I was of the person thought enough of me to get me something, regardless of how menial it is.
So, am I a complete tool who needs to get with the times or what? Al I know is right at this point, I feel like the worst piece of **** alive for thinking of my wife and for getting her a present.

I have always sincerely thanked my men (and others) for the gifts they have given me, even the jackass boyfriend who got me the vacuum cleaner. (I did bust on him a bit, but in a loving, funny way.)
I am dying to know what this gift was. Was it a thigh master or something?
BTW, surprise gifts rocks. Getting a gift for no reason at all or just because a guy was thinking of me is the best. Sorry your gift did not have a good result.

Over the last couple of months, she'd been talking a lot about the Chicago Bears and how she enjoys them. She also kept looking at jerseys on EBay.. So I got her an authentic Walter Payton jersey off EBay.

WOW.
And she said she did not want it? Wow that is a shame. You shouldnt feel bad for it, especially if she had an interest in football/bears.

OMG! That gift freaking rocks and I am NOT a Bears fan! What the hell is wrong with your wife? (Sorry, just asking.)
First thing she said. She's said it a few times since then.
Definitely dont feel bad about getting her that gift. It would be one thing if she absolutely did not like football and new nothing about the Bears, etc. But the fact that she was interested in them, and was looking at jersey's, your gift was incredibly thoughtful and she shouldn't have responded like that.
Anyone who wants it, IM me.. I'm giving the damned thing away. I'd keep it myself, but I'd have to listen to nonsense about how I bought it for myself anyhow.
