Why is my husband so upset with his birthday gift?

It was my husband's 24th birthday last week.

A couple of weeks before his birthday, his truck started having engine problems and he expressed his desire to have a new truck for his birthday.

So, the day before his birthday, I sneaked out of the house to go on a little birthday errand. I went to our local Dodge dealership to look into purchasing a new Dodge Ram, where I nearly fainted when I saw the price of those things. Oh my goodness! I did not know they were THAT EXPENSIVE! I began to rethink buying him a new truck.

I left the dealership and headed to a make-up store, where I bought a couple of different kinds of make-up that I liked very much. I figured that he would like this gift very much, as he might like the look of this expensive make-up on me.

So anyway, I came back home and left it in my brand-new (and also very expensive) Ford Expedition. In the middle of the night, I snuck out of bed and to the garage. I retrieved the make-up, wrapped it up in a very nice, pink box with purple wrapping paper and a bright yellow bow, and put in on top of the good of his truck. As I finished and locked up for the night, I thought to myself, "OH, I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THE LOOK ON HIS FACE TOMORROW!!! " I then went back to bed, hardly able to sleep, as I was very anxious.

Well, the next day finally came. He woke up to the smell of a hot waffle breakfast along with sausage, eggs, and an ice-cold cup of chocolate milk, his favorite. He seemed very pleased, saying, oh, you are the perfect wife!!! We then made out for 5 minutes. After breakfast, we took a very nice, hot shower together for about an hour. We took a trip to the beach later that day, and we spent some good time together. As the day ended, we headed back home. I, along with a little of his assistance, made him his absolute favorite meal, grilled steak grilled with honey-Bar-B-Q sauce. It was an incredible dinner, the 2 of us absolutely loved it. After dinner, we had a great 2 hours of sex without a condom (I think he got me pregnant).

Then, it was time to open presents. He had to go to the bathroom really fast, so I sneaked out to the garage really fast to make sure everything was ready. This was going to be perfect!

So, my husband was standing right beside me, and I said, ready to see you gift? He couldn't wait, and I led him to the garage. I could see the excitement building in his eyes, and he said to me, oh, you shouldn't have, honey!

I put my hands over his eyes as I took him into the garage. I turned him to the direction facing the gift, and said, "One... Two... THREE!!!"

I moved my hands and he just stood there, shocked. At first, I though he was excited, but then he just said, "Oh." He opened the present, and at first, I thought he really liked I had gotten him, but then he turned around and slapped me in the face really hard and said, "Why did you have to get my hopes up so high!?!?!?" He stomped his way back inside the house, and I later heard him crying in the bedroom.

He hasn't talked to me ever since, and he still wont talk to me. What did I do????????????

    Don't lie. You're the same person who posted this:

    On the assumption that this is not a fake:

    To be honest, guys rarely notice makeup unless it's too much. That could be one of the things. Second, by buying something that you thought would be beneficial to both of you but that he, in reality, probably doesn't care about, it's basically the same as splurging the money for his birthday gift on yourself.

    I notice you also call the new-and-very-expensive Ford Expedition "yours." That rings alarm bells.

    I don't know how you can fix this, but next time don't get anything girly. If he wants a new truck, he wants a new truck - or at least, to have the old one fixed.

    Should of had the present in the house not in the garage where a truck should of been. Should of also went with the classics like a watch lighter or money clip.

    This sounds like another ?? but it was a lawn mower, the problem is that you bought you a gift instead.

    that was a bit misleading, taking him to the garage for his box of makeup. I would have thought NEW TRUCK too. but he ought to be shot for smacking you.
