| I would just monitor the situation. I know that in my experiences if it dosen't feel right it usually isn't. Just don't go overboard and ruin your relationship with jealousy. |

| He's probably just sucking up to the boss.The cake is most likely going to be shared by the people at the job or office, himself included. This sounds like a work situation. Don't bother yourself about it. Next birthday or other gift type day give hints (on paper) about what you would like. Do you want a cake or would you rather him take you out to dinner where you can order dessert? |

| My husband bought flowers for a woman at work whose birthday it was, It made me mad because he never went out of his way for me. If he didn't do it for you yes, you can be mad but don't overdue it. He was maybe showing his "nice" side. Cake doesn't mean sex. He did buy you flowers, think of the good things he has done. |

| Yes you should feel that way. As a matter of fact I think that this is grounds for divorce in most states. So call your lawyer and change the locks. |

| Absolutely not!If my husband bought me a cake, (or anything edible) I'd be cross (i'm on a diet) but that's besides the point, it won't get you your cake and it won't make him be any more thoughtful.I would tell him what a lovely thoughtful gesture and what a kind man he is and how happy you'd be if he bought a cake (or in my case diamond earrings) for you.You're more likely to get them then.Louisex |

| No..no. Its his boss and everyone in the office is probably behind it. Maybe you are just a little jealous because his boss is a woman. But you shouldnt worry coworkers bring cakes in all the time for someone leaving, B-day, promotions, holidays doesnt really matter. |

| Oh Dear God!!! Come on! So he bought her a cake. He was probably told to by someone else in the office. We have pitch in's all the time where I work. Everyone brings something for whoever's birthday it is. It isn't a big deal!!!Pick your battles!! After 17 years together, I would think that you have more important issues to deal with!!!If you want him to buy you a cake - tell him! Men need a lot of direction!!You are being a little insecure about this. I really think you should just let it go - it isn't a big deal!! |

| Do you bake yourself? I ask because I do, and my husband NEVER buys me a cake, although he will buy one for the ladies at work from time to time. Heck, I even bake so that he can take cake to the ladies! Some men honestly just don't think though, so tell him how slighted you were, you may be surprised to find that he didn't know. |

| Please dont get upset over this, but if you are getting all pissy over a cake are you sure there aren't deeper rooted issues at large here? I mean, its a cake, for an employee. He is running a business, sometimes to keep moral up in the workplace, the main boss/supervisor occasionally has to lower himself to the same level as the day worker, makes him look human and able to interact with the employees on a larger scale than the Yes sir no sir, you are right boss, kind of thing. |

| Honestly, I'd be a little peeved. I see it quite often, when husbands are more considerate of other females than their own wives. I don't even think they realize it, if that makes you feel any better. I'd bring it to my husband's attention, maybe by saying something like "How nice and thoughtful of you, I wonder why she gets a cake and the woman that washes your shorts doesn't?" |
