Woman discloses her love language

Daily Mail shared the lady's story:

"My love language is food. I have a sweet tooth, and my husband has bought me all kinds of delicious desserts. This year I told him all I wanted was a decadent dessert and a nice card."

She noted the roses were beautiful, but she was not a flower person as she did not know how to keep them alive.

Unfortunately, the flowers were no more, and the hubby was upset, as his wife indicated.

She enquired from netizens whether she should feel bad for not fully appreciating her husband's gift.

One netizen commented:

"I wouldn't be upset with any gift someone gave me, even if it was something I didn't like. Humble yourself because you don't know what can happen between now and the next holiday. You might cherish this moment more than you thought."

Others defended the woman labelling her husband as a 'terrible listener' who should not be mad for the flowers dying.

One commenter said:

"Why would he get you something you don't like? That's more of a, 'well I gave you something' gift instead of a thoughtful one."
