@Louise it's so disappointing isn't it. It doesn't cost much but just displays a complete lack of care. I am deffo not bothering with Father's Day, I for one am fed up of the endless shit after having a baby with my partner. Hoping your partner celebrates it the way you'd like one day!
If no effort had been put in for me today then yup, id be fuming and put in none for fathers day. If he made a comment on fathers day i would respond with 'Same effort has been put in today as you put in for mothers day'. But guys often just dont think, so you might have to be blutantly clear with what you want. For example my husband said il have to tell him what i want for breakfast. So i told him, then i told him what i wanted to do for the day and then what takeout i wanted. He actually organised a gift himself when usually he asks what i want.
Honestly my daughter dad didn't even show up last mother day and didn't give me anything or say anything to me and I didn't celebrate his father day because I felt robbed of my first Mother's Day
@Larissa I know men need a little bit more instruction but when it's something they actually care for( football, hanging with the guys, house party) they're so "organised". Just selfish creatures honestly. I'm putting in no effort for Father's Day this is just rude. It's just been a Shit show since we had a kid, can't even recognise who I married 😳
@Ivonne I'm so sorry that happened to you! That sucks but good for you for skipping his day. Did he feel anything about it or is he careless about this kind of stuff ?
He felt a type of way but honestly I didn't care because it goes both ways in parenting
@Ivonne good! I feel like most people learn tit for tat honestly. It wouldn't have killed to send me a little card that costs like £2 or to have gotten me an e-card.
No lie in while he slept until 10, the card was one I'd made at nursery with her because I'm her keyworker. Wasn't impressed at all. I was going to make my lunch for work today and not do his, pick up and wash my own clothes but not his. Didn't happen and I ended up doing those things. At least he ran the hoover round and cleaned the bathroom 🤦♀️ fuck fathers day
Incognito, its not about men needing more instructions, but if its not something they care about or see as important then they are less likely to do it. There are clearly a lot of issues going on in your marriage though and you guys need to have some discussions to sort through them to get to a place where you want to be. I hope you guys are able to do this and get to a place where you both want to celebrate each other
I totally understand it. There no effort ever been put in for mother's day for me.. I always intend to do the same for father's day but bottle out.
