Hi everyone - its my 26th birthday today. My husband bought me ballet lessons (like a voucher for a dance school here in NY) and then a catholic sexy school outfit....when I opened the outfit I went really quiet. It was the last thing I was expecting and I felt really awkward and hurt that this could be considered a bday present. I don't know how I would have felt if it was just given to me on a normal day - but some beautiful normal underwear would have gone down a lot better. I want to try and understand why I am feeling hurt and like my husband really misunderstood me (the last person you want to misunderstand you). He flipped out with embarrassment and couldn't laugh it off or anything...now we aren't talking to eachother - I've asked for space and I am all alone on my birthday. I just returned from London where my family and alllll my bestest friends in the world are and I can't help feeling sorry for myself a little and thinking how amazing my birthday would be in London. Can any of you relate to this or help me understand why I was so strange (or not) about that gift? I am a spiritual person in general so although I have a healthy sex drive, something about that gift made me feel cheap. :-(
