This is gonna be our first father's day together
Anyway, I bought my ex (on behalf of the kids, we have 2 together) a watch & a couple of polo shirts...his favorite for fd. I spent just under $100 not an outrageous amount right?
WRONG. Dh flipped when I showed him the receipts (because he wanted to see them) and told me to never "do that stupid shit again, especially for that dickhead."
I think he's jealous because HE'S not a dad. Nothing I can do about that, buddy. Besides I spend MY money however the fuck I want.
Am I right or am I right?

I can't believe how many of you are making this such a big deal. Dh did get s baseball glove, bat & jersey . Granted, those were bday gifts (his bday was yesterday) so it's not like he's left out. I honestly don't see why he would get a strictly fattr's day gift. He's NOT THEIR DAD & we've only been.married 10 months. My girls are 10 & 13, not babies. That's hardly enough time to establish a step dad/ step kids bond.
THE GIRLS CHOSE THOSE GIFTS FOR THEIR DAD. I obviously provided the money. And please, don't tell me I spent way too much. $100 may be a lot to you but NOT for me. Why is that so difficult to understand? You women are hilarious to think that just because I remarried, the girls should downsize on what they get their dad. And, it's funny how only a handful of you noticed that dh namecalling ex was utterly disrespectful, for the kids sake. I definately see a double standard.here.
Dh and I talked, after we both piped down and now he sees that he overreacted and apologized.

I don't think you were wrong. Your kids picked gifts for THEIR dad... Of course you would pay... That's a given, who else would?
You spent your money. Your DH is just jealous...
