    Any suggestions?

    Yeah. Eat the candy your boyfriend was nice enough to get for you. And next time, be more specific.

    Can you go to the store and get the right one?

    I stopped requesting things from mine because for some reason, when twice I asked him to bring me ice cream, he bought sugar free. SUGAR FREE!!!

    I did laugh at him. But I'm mean.

    The caramel ones are good. Maybe save it for another day.

    I love the crème eggs but aren't they just 150 cal? The ones I get are.

    Anyway...in that situation I'd enjoy the caramel egg but tell my husband he got the wrong thing so that it wouldn't turn into an ongoing thing and come up 7 years down the road "I didn't wanna hurt your feelings back in 2014" LOL

    Then again, I like caramel too. I really truly DISLIKED the caramel egg, I would sweetly tell him it was the wrong thing but I really don't go for caramel - and offer it to him instead. I wouldn't ask him to go and get the correct treat. However, he probably would.

    Yeah, I wouldn't ask him to either. I just kinda wanted to address that so people didn't suggest it o-^
    I can only imagine us fighting over something stupid in 10 years and me yelling "YOU DON'T EVEN BUY ME THE RIGHT TYPE OF CADBURY EGGS!"
    It is 150 now o: It totally used to be 170, I had to google it!
    Thanks for letting me know.

    If it is not what you want. Don't put it in your body. Save those 200 calories for the real deal. It would be one thing if they cost a ton of money. Maybe he'll ear it?

    No, no, no.

    It's all about the mini eggs with that ridiculously addicting crunch shell.

    Now *I* want a bag. See what you did?

    :tongue:

    The hierarchy goes Chocolate & caramel > Chocolate & peanut butter >x1,000,000 Chocolate and gelatinous egg goo.

    Sacrilege! There is no better combo on this planet than chocolate & peanut butter!

    smile at him. tell him you forget to say you wanted the other kind and that it was your mistake. thank him for being so thoughtful. ask him if he'd like it instead because you don't really like the type he got you.

    everybody makes mistakes. i'm sure your boyfriend will understand.

    ^^ This.

    Tell him if he'll go back to the store and get you the one you are craving you'll make it worth his while.

    Okay Cadbury eggs are so gross, like just thinking about eating one has made me queasy, but I have been craving this one dumpling place for a month, delicious savory dumplings. Today is basically a "jog your butt off to be able to go get dumplings and drinks because you need time with adults" day for me, if I trusted my husband to order me my treat and he got it wrong, I would give him the wrong option for himself and just go get what I wanted myself.

    Really though, that gritty cream, how do you manage? The caramel is sooo much better :)

    You and me, sister. Right here.

    This makes me feel better :D
    Seems to be the general consensus.
    I just really hate disappointing people, I get all anxious about it.
    Okie dokie.

    Is there a reason you can't get it yourself?

    I was wondering the same thing! that way you KNOW you will get the right delicious cream filled delightful treat and enjoy every last bit! lol
  • my parents split up when i was 27.

    it was over the breakfast table at a family event.

    my mother literally said

    "You just couldn't be bothered to get me a diet coke could you. It's over, I can't do this anymore."

    My father then said

    "that was over 20 years ago, I can't believe you are STILL talking about that."

    My mother said,

    "that is just the tip of the iceberg that illustrates the lack of communication there is in this relationship. You don't listen to me and you don't care to."

    my father said

    "I said I was sorry, did you listen to that?"

    we all slunk out of the kitchen knowing it was truly done by the tepid tempurature of the bacon that was starting to solidify in it's grease......

    tell the man but be gentle about it.

    because otherwise...that's how a marriage two months short of 30 years goes down the drain.

    I usually would, it was just one of those "baby do you want anything?" situations and I was like YES. I DO. IN FACT I NEED CHOCOLATE.
