Are you a jerk for telling someone you love to stop buying you presents on holidays like Valentine's Day? One man explains his predicament.
is an important part of relationships. An in our culture, it’s pretty expected between romantic partners. It’s also a common point of contention, especially when it comes to— but it is for your spouse. If you want different rules to apply for you than for your partner, are you being a jerk, or are you communicating your needs?“So, my wife buys me gifts for the typical holidays. Christmas, birthday, Valentine's Day,” he begins.
“Well, apparently I'm the asshole because when she asked me when I'd make an appointment, I told her I didn't know when I would and it's not really something I'm interested in doing,” he continued. “We both have busy lives so time comes at a premium price. I'm further the asshole because I've repeatedly asked her to stop buying me gifts because they either don't get used and take up space or they go in the trash.
And his timing was not exactly the best. Telling someone you want them to stop giving you gifts right after you received a gift, and on Valentine’s Day, might not be the smartest move. A little harsh, but there’s some truth there. Something tells me that his wife would have loved to get a spa day for Valentine’s Day, but she’s projecting that onto him. Either that, or she’s sending hints about what she wants in the worst way.
