Would you be mad at your husband for this...?

Question

We need a cell phone so I told him when I get off at 2am that we go to the store and buy one. So when he comes to my job to bring me my lunch he told me that he went to the store to get more info on the phone we were going to buy. well I checked his email ( like he asked me to do) and found out he all ready bought a phone. so my question is should I mess with him and tell him that I decided we don't need a cell phone after all and see what he does? I am kinda mad about this because he went behind my back and did this after we talked about and decided what and when we do whatever we were going to do it. someone answer this asap I get off in like 40 min!!

I am not mad just a little peeved that he did it behing my back so I thought acting like I didn't want it would make him like OMG why did I buy it?? and make him sweat a little bit. all in good fun though

Answer 1

OK, You walk up to him as soon as you see him with a jubilant look on your face. You appear that if you don't tell him this wonderful news right now, you are going to burst. While jumping up and down, start yelling excitedly,"Honey!! Guess what!!! Guess what!! You are never going to believe what just happened to me. OK, OK let me catch my breath for a minute!" Then appear to be wiping a tear of joy away from your eye. Compose yourself and say, "I just won a free 2.4 megapixel, blue tooth camera phone complete with unlimited calling, text messaging, long distance service, also free!! The radio had a contest & I was the caller with the correct answer to the late-night trivia question! They played the exact same song that was sung (or played) at our wedding, and I was the only first one to get the title of the song correct! Wow, I knew that was our special song. You do remember what it was, don't you sweetheart??" Or tell him that you were talking to some people at work, and they said to be sure not to buy whatever make, model, service etc... because it had a recall that had just been put out by the FCC and was determined to be dangerous and caused nausea, vomiting, dizziness, trembling of hands, sweatty feet, erectile disfunction, hair loss, irritation of the mucus membranes, and a severe allergic reaction to water no matter if the phone was off or on, beware and stay away from this phone. You have the make, model and service that he purchased in the e-mail I suppose. If I were to use option #2, I would keep a straight face, and let him rush back down to the store that he purchased it from & make a big scene before I told him any different. Type out an official looking list of these side effects with the phone make and model listed at the top. The list should be officially from the FCC Department of Consumer Safety.
Anyway, that's what I would do. Hey, but that's just me. He can take a joke, right??

Answer 2

MY husband has a bad habbit of doing the same thing. He did it 2 yrs ago with a car. we were going to look at a used car after i got off work that evening and by the time I got off he had already bought a brand new car that was 10,000 more than we were planning on spending. I was a little upset. I understand. Give him a very hard time and make him think you really don't want it. that will hopefully make him think before he does it again. Good luck and smile because it could always be worse.

Answer 3

No I would not be mad. I'd be glad it was taken care of.

Maybe he wanted to surprise you and take care of it. If you're getting off work at 2am, maybe he thinks you migh be tired and ready to go home. Even more likely, he got hooked by a persuasive salesperson.

A cell phone is just a cell phone-- it's not a house or a car.

Don;t borrow trouble!

Answer 4

First of all you need to count to ten. Second you need to examine the situation and decide whether or not this is worth an argument or not, do you want peace and joy in your home or do you want anger and sorrow? If you chose the first, then the best thing to do is to listen to hubby's reasoning, and then thank him for being able to do something on his own to try and please you. Sometimes men are like little boys who just want to please their moms, they even jump the gun once in a while, but that doesn't mean that he meant any real harm to you, it just means that he wanted to surprise you. Thank him and then gently remind him about your decision to include you as well the next time that he wants to purchase something.( It kind of sounds like to me that you are only mad because you didn't get to play, does this almost sound like a poor sport)? Remember - A soft answer will always turn away wrath. Be kind.

Answer 5

you may merely clarify to him which you're sorry and you probably did not understand he became into anticipating a decision from paintings, yet on the different hand, how could desire to you have prevalent? If he's often working, it is not undemanding to be attentive to whilst it is significant or merely him bringing paintings residing house. he's your husband, he could separate his paintings time and his existence time. Ask him if over a weekend or after 7 or 8pm he could desire to bypass away his telephone off now and lower back and luxuriate in spending time with you? i wish all of it works out. don't be too frightened, he did marry you :] He loves you and could't stay mad continuously.

Answer 6

Do not start arguments...they don't lead to good. By starting arguments, being mad, having a negative attitude opens the door to satan and leads to destruction eventually. Maybe not with the phone...but with other things down the road you will encounter. Be positive and think and dwell on good things,
Now if what your husband did really bothered you...you can be honest with him and talk about it. simple.
Have a blessed day!
God Bless!

P.S. If interested, try reading "Power of a Praying Woman" Very good. Helped me in all aspects of life.

Answer 7

wait and see maybe he's the type of guy that wants to please you and surprise you with it. you told him you need one. maybe he got it for you himself for a birthdday xmas anniversary or just cause he wanted to be sweet. Don't chop him off at the knees so soon wait and see what he says about the phone.

Also could have a buddy in the business that got it cheaper than you would have at a regular store. I use to work in cellular industry and you can get them much cheaper than the marked up prices in the stores.

Sit on it for a bit and see what he says and does about this phone. worse comes to worse he didn't do as you wish. don't sweat the small stuff he was probably trying to be helpful and just do it for you as he knows your working either way. You will have more important things in life to get upset about lol. chilll on this one.

Answer 8

The cell phone isn't the issue here. You and your husband have a lack of trust and communication. That is the problem.
A marriage can't really be happy if you can't talk to each other
honestly and not keep secrets from each other.

Answer 9

Yes I would be a little mad.My husband does this kind of thing a lot to me.And I get angry with him for doing it.I think it's a guy thing.They just don't think there's anything wrong with rushing right in and doing it.They're very impulssive.I don't think I'd mess with him.I would just ask him why didn't he wait for you like you both had a greed to do?

Answer 10

Sounds like he had good intentions but there is nothing wrong with expressing your disappointment for his actions. Its a guy thing I am sorry to say, I have been guilty of similar things in my past. Tell him you are upset at him for doing this but don't let it go too far...it's just a cell phone.
