Woman Reconsiders Marriage After Her Husband Continually Avoids Buying Her a Birthday Gift: ‘He gave me a handmade note to a spa that never materialized’

Marriage can be one of the most beautiful things in the world. Going through life with someone, through the thick and thin, and facing the world together is soul opening and enriching. Though it's not always a walk in the park, its challenges still excite both partners to grow and share life together, which bonds them closer and closer. But unfortunately, people change, and sometimes for the worse. 

Though you may think you married someone, they may not turn out to be the person you thought they were. You really have to be with someone for longer to see all their nooks and crannies of behavior, emotional intelligence, and coping mechanisms. That's exactly what brings us to the story here. 

In this Reddit thread, it's obvious this husband just doesn't care. Whether he doesn't care about his wife, his happiness, or life at all is unclear. People have different reasons for doing things, and different manifestations of feelings. But one thing is clear- something isn't right. How hard is it to listen to your wife about her birthday gift? Keep in mind, it's more than about a 'gift,' it's a whole realm of communication and respect that is lacking.
