The ugly Christmas gift
So years ago when me and my husband were first dating we had our first Christmas as a couple. I came over that night to have Christmas dinner with him and his family and we exchange Christmas gifts. He bought me a few gifts which I loved but then he gave me the last one I opened it and looked down at this ugly jacket I would never wear. He looks at me and smiles, his whole family in the room and says “do you like it my mom picked it out”...
So I’m like....
“Yes I love it” I played it off good 💁♀️
Well now I had another problem it was a cold winter and I had to keep up the charade that I loved this jacket. So every single time I went to my boyfriend house that winter I wore the ugly jacket
That was 10 years ago and now we are married and have our own home together and I haven’t seen that ugly jacket in years.
We decided to do a deep cleaning and organizing of the house together and get rid of all our junk and clutter. We were going through some boxes in the attic and my husband calls me over and says look what I found!!
And sure enough in his hands was that ugly jacket... I knew it was time to come clean and tell him this secret I’ve been holding in for so many years.
But before I could he says remember this old jacket you use to wear when we were first dating. I was like yes and he says this thing is kinda ugly now wow your taste in clothes has changed so much since then.
Well after arguing for 10 minutes about how he bought it for me and he didn’t believe he would of bought me something so “ugly”. We laughed about how funny it was that I wore a jacket I hated just to make him happy and not hurt his feelings because he looked so happy when he gave it to me... We packed it up and drop it off with the rest of the stuff at the goodwill and I will never have to see the ugly jacket again.
