My husband and I are getting a divorce, but today is our anniversary. Should I get him a present?

We have been married 9 years and I went to see the attorney yesterday. He knows it is coming, but he does not know I saw the attorney yet. He has been very mean lately, well, for most of our marriage.

Are you out of your mind. His present is on the way. Leave it at that.

Let me think....yes I think I would waste some of my hard earned money on my sob of an ex....ummm NOPE! Spend the money on someone more important..some stranger on the street or maybe even yourself!

Yeah get his *** a big box full of **** and leave a note saying that is what I think of you and this marriage...HAHAH..I bet he'll regret being mean to you...


T-baby

If you are asking this question than you should be questioning if you truly want to divorce him,it doesn't sound like you are very sure! I hope everything works out for you!

Do not get him a gift, and don't mention the occasion unless he does. If he asks why you didn't get him a gift, tell him you didn't think it was appropriate.

I would say no. A present might give him the impression that a reconciliation is possible. If that is not the case, I would just let the day pass like any other day. Good Luck.

Yeah, you should get him something. Then get him a card that says goodbye :)

Okay so tell me what the purpose of the anniversary is? It is to celebrate your wedding day. To show each other how HAPPY you are that you married each other. To show love and dedication year after year. Buuuut if you are divorcing, what is there to celebrate? If anyone should be getting a gift, I would say get yourSELF a gift for getting out of a marriage that you no longer wish to be in.

do u still love him??? why is he mean to you??
figure the root of the problem and before u devorce try to see if u can co exist with each other

and if u still love him buy him a gift
but it should come from the heart

Having been divorced... I'd say that it would be like kicking him in the head... both heads....
Love you...now get out...

Don't send mixed signals. I don't think its an option

That depends on you only you know how he would react to something like that just go w/your instincts they won't steer you wrong

No presents this year, it would give him false hope.


Rachel
No, I wouldn't - especially not since you are soon to be getting divorced. Make it clear what's going on - there is no anniversary - the relationship is over.


just_out_side
I agree with Lisa... getting a gift will give the wrong impression. Get him a card that simply has a return envelope as well as a note that says insert half your cheque here!


Matt W
no you shouldn't because you are getting divorce

you just answered your question!! why would you give a man a present that has been mean to you most of your marriage? Save the money and buy yourself something nice..you deserve it for putting up with his mean ***!!!

Yes, give him an expensive gift.

Yes, you should get him something. I'm sure he will be getting something for you.

ummm...its a complicated question. i would just tell him that ur getting a divorce rather than letting him get a shock after u give him a present.

maybe a nice trunk to put the crap he will be taking in.


snapoutofit
I would not get a present. But perhaps you should tell him why.


Billys girl
no, you are separated. I would not give him a gift. If you do, he might think that you are trying to get back together with him.

I would say no. If you want to get a divorce there is no sense in celebrating your marriage that you want to get out of.


dlgrl=me
only if you are gift wrapping the divorce request.

Getting him a gag gift if anything. Perhaps a blow-up doll.

Sure, get him a little something. Be the bigger person. How about some luggage?
