My hubby to be and I have been together for 4 years and we have two girls 3 years and a 2 months old. He has never given me anything for Christmas, Valentines Day, Mother's Day or even my birthday. Every time I ask him why he tells me that he shouldn't have to give me anything but when it comes to him he wants the gifts Like last year on Christmas he got a ps2 for himself. He said that it was a gift to himself. We were pregnant then. In February i bought myself a camera but then about 3 weeks later realized that I still didn't have a crib set or i wasn't totally prepared for our baby (she ws born in March) so i returned the camera and got baby stuff. For mother's day i asked him for a camera and he told me that I wasn't his mom so he shouldn't have to get me anything. What can i do? If I sound selfish I really don't mean to but i get irritated

Oh, my goodness ---- no, you aren't selfish. You have this turned around----he is the selfish one. You must really love him to put up with this treatment from him. Sorry, but I couldn't live like that --- good luck to you.

Wow what a clod you're married to (sorry but it's true). As his wife you should come first and foremost in his life. You may not be his mother but you are a mother, and since the baby cannot obviously buy you a gift your husband to be should have the decency (and love for you) to get you something to show how special you are. I am single right now but when I have someone special I always buy them gifts on holidays and even roses and flowers/cards on certain days "just because". I hope it gets better for you.

He's a #@&*%$# for lack of a better term.I would start gifting myself then - but that may be the reason I am divorced. I don't let men treat me like dog dung and get away with it.

Don't make him twist the situation around. He's the selfish one. Instead of buying a Ps2 for himself, he should have bought some things for the baby. You're completely unselfish because you were feeling under-appreciated, went out and bought yourself something, then felt guilty and got things for your baby. Yes, you're not his mom, but you're the mother of his children. Are you sure you want to marry a man who only gives a damn about himself, not even his children or the mother of his children? You have a right to be irritated. I wouldn't even continue on with any kind of wedding until he learns to grow up and stop thinking about himself and if it didn't happen soon enough, then I'd pack his bags.
