I know Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Jesus and it has become too comercial, however, my husband does not give me gifts or cards for anything. Not on my birthday. Absolutly NOT on Mothers day as I am not his mother. Only 1 Christmas gift in 27 years and that was because a friend said she would "snap him in two" if he didn't get me something. that was nearly 20 years ago. He knows this is hurtful to me, but it is like he does it on purpose. His mom, dad, sister, step-father, co-worker all get gifts and cards for all occasions. Phone calls, emails, texts, NOPE. I'm his wife and I should know how he feels. This year I took his gift back. He asked for it back and wanted to know why I took it. I didn't respond, just walked away. After all, he's my husband, he should know how I feel.
