Ungrateful 29-year-old husband resells wife's thoughtful Dungeons and Dragons-themed birthday gift, refuses to accept anything that isn't on his wishlist: '[He] ruined D&D for me'

When your partner has a really specific special interest, it can make finding them a birthday gift a little difficult. "How so?" You may be wondering, thinking just the opposite. Well, people that are really invested in their hobby tend to be pretty picky and specific about the sorts of tools or accessories that they prefer. For example, as a visual artist, I have particular brands that I prefer when it comes to paint, pastels, and other mediums. However, if someone were to gift me some art-related tool, I would still appreciate the intention behind the gift – even if I never end up using it.

In our story today, a woman's spark and love of gift-giving is utterly snuffed away by her husband when he reacts negatively to her birthday present. Sure, he had a very specific wishlist, and anything on that list would have satisfied him. But the transactional nature rubbed her the wrong way, and she wanted to give him something a little more thoughtful. It didn't exactly work out, though.
