Unappreciative husband
So it's Father's Day. Me and my 10-year-old made my husband a Father's Day gift and we just had a baby a month ago also. This morning I sent him a text message on his way to work telling him that we love him and appreciate him and wishing him a happy Father's Day. It was a very sweet text message along with a picture of the kids. He never responded to me. And it might sound petty but I was kind of mad about it even though I didn't show it. This year he hasn't gotten me a birthday gift didn't do anything for me for Mother's Day either. I'm always doing for him and doing what I can to show hes appreciated and loved. But it's like he doesn't even try. There are days like today unfortunately that I feel unappreciated and even better at his lack of effort. He never goes out of his way anymore to express those things to me. And yes I've told him about it. Just needed to vent feel kind of shitty.
Update: ok first of all for those making negative comments no it is not all about me. He is not the type to show a lot of appreciation or expressions of love in general. So I typically look forward to occasions like Mother's Day or my birthday or Christmas etc because I would assume he does something to actually show some love and appreciation. It's not about material gifts or how much money he spends on me. It's about him putting some effort into showing me he cares because he actually has an excuse to because it's a holiday of some kind. And no one said I buy him lavish gifts all the time. Some of you people blow things way out of proportion. I'm talking about doing special things for him in general or just consistently knowing that he knows I show him he is appreciated and loved and feeling as if I don't get that in return. I'm thinking it's more of a communication thing also as some of you have said. Because his mother said his father can be exactly the same way. Not extremely expressive etc. but he tried really hard when we were first together of course etc. I've known him since he was 8 years old. But being someone's friend and wife can be different dynamic wise. I'm not the type to change everything I do and how I am and stoop to his level.
