She sounds unreasonable to me. I would never expect or want my husband (of over 40 years) to buy me a bag, I buy my own.

I can buy myself what I want. It still feels wonderful that my husband likes to buy bags for me. Why wouldn’t someone want their spouse to buy them a nice gift if they can afford it??? I’m curious, is it just bags your husband can’t buy you or do you not like gifts in general.

I don't really understand why women expect their husbands to pay for their purses... Maybe it's because I'm from Europe, not the US. :huh:

Wow! That’s an interesting statement you just made. You think being American v European is the factor??? How about we throw in age, race, religion and weight as predictors for entitlement? SMH.

I’m American and <wowsers!> I don’t “expect” my husband to buy me anything. He does so when he wants to because he enjoys the loving gesture. Just as I do for him.

Something seems off about this.
The husband starts a thread and is posting using his wife’s tPF member identify. She has not posted for over a month but if she comes back, how comfortable is she going to be coming on ‘her’ forum and reading a thread about their relationship? And I agree with those who have suggested that this isn’t about a purse.
Lol maybe when she logs in and sees this thread you might want to consider gifting her with two handbags.....the other one being an apology purse ...... j/k

He said earlier that she suggested he post about it through her account so members can give him more explanations.

OP, you can try talking to a mod about locking or deleting gthis thread if you'd like?

Post #29 and #30 finally answered my questions. Thank you to both @Sparkletastic and @itsmree for your responses. And thanks to others as well.

Now I gotta figure out a way to delete this.

If your wife suggested you post here why are you worried about deleting this? BTW you can't, you'd have to have one of the moderators do it for you. There's also a good chance that, if she has alerts on her account, she's already aware of your posts if in fact she wasn't party to this originally.

To each her own. I see nothing wrong with having your spouse purchasing a more high end item as a gift, whether it's husband for wife or vice versa. Provided, again, that's it's within the family budget.

I see your point; putting one's husband under duress to buy a bag is what got me-should have stated it better.

I find that the only beautiful thing I can wear at the moment is my handbag. Ever since I gave birth to my 4 babies, My size doubled and I feel frustrated about it. I can’t wear nice shoes just like I used to because I got used to wearing flats and sneakers running around with children. I was never the one into jewelries either. So what was left for me? Handbags. I feel happy acquiring or having fancy purses (and makeup).

Hope you find the reasons you need as to why women needs more than one handbag especially from this forum!
