Three weeks ago, my wife had spotted a jewelry box in an ad that she said she wanted. I went and bought it last week and had it wrapped in time for Christmas. I also bought her a spa treatment that includes a mini-facial. My wife had also spent hundreds of dollars in the last few weeks on clothes for herself which she said would count as part of her Christmas gifts from me. I also bought her a Dooney Burke purse. Then, last night after all the presents had been opened, she lays into me about buying her "crappy" gifts. Aside from the gifts I mentioned above, I had given her some other things as well that she had picked out about a week or so prior to Christmas. Not only does she say I bought her crappy gifts, but then she says she would never get anything if she did not pick it out herself. However every time I try to buy her something nice, she ends up taking it back and getting something more expensive. Am I out of line thinking she needs to knock it off and be appreciatve?

sounds as if she isn't appreciative and very selfish and self centered. it must have really insulted u to have her call your gifts crappy. i would confront her, and tell her how u feel about her thoughts about your gifts. yes u have a right to be angry at her. maybe her expectations are way to high, and if they are your relationship will suffer for it.

Yes you should be upset, you realy put some effort into getting things for your wife. Its the thought that counts, and she needs a spanking. Maybe you just have her spoiled and now she expects high priced items. Good luck. By the way, she does owe you an apology.
